Multidecadal preindustrial methane variability can be explained by noise in the source–sink imbalance | PNAS
Ice core records of preindustrial methane indicate variability of ±30 ppb (±5%) on multidecadal-to-centennial timescales. Previous work has attribu...

Some UW ATMOS grad students performed songs about life as an atmospheric chemist yesterday. -Nosedive by Post Malone about working with analytical instrumentation -Its Fine Its Cool by Chappell Roan about assuming atmospheric OH is constant Several will be at #AGU if you want their autographs
