Large and seasonally varying biospheric CO2 fluxes in the Los Angeles megacity revealed by atmospheric radiocarbon
Measurements of Δ14C and CO2 can cleanly separate biogenic and fossil contributions to
CO2 enhancements above background. Our measurements of these tracers in air around …

Decadal decrease in Los Angeles methane emissions is much smaller than bottom-up estimates
Methane, a powerful greenhouse gas, has a short atmospheric lifetime (~ 12 years), so that
emissions reductions will have a rapid impact on climate forcing. In megacities such as Los …

The Impact of COVID‐19 on CO2 Emissions in the Los Angeles and Washington DC/Baltimore Metropolitan Areas
Responses to COVID‐19 have resulted in unintended reductions of city‐scale carbon
dioxide (CO2) emissions. Here, we detect and estimate decreases in CO2 emissions in Los …

An emerging GHG estimation approach can help cities achieve their climate and sustainability goals
A credible assessment of a city's greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation policies requires a valid
account of a city's emissions. However, questions persist as to whether cities''self-reported …
