Carbon dioxide emission plumes from a large power station detected from space

Researchers at the Finnish Meteorological Institute developed a new methodology to derive source-specific NOₓ-to-CO₂ emission ratios using satellite observations. The method was applied to Matimba power station in South Africa. The results can be used to estimate carbon dioxide emissions. Since the Paris agreement was adopted in 2015, the role of satellite observations in understanding … Continue reading Carbon dioxide emission plumes from a large power station detected from space
