Featured Observation Method: EMIT Imaging Spectrometer
NASA's Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation (EMIT) Imaging Spectrometer detects high concentrations of greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide and methane, providing essential data on air pollution.
This 2-hour virtual workshop on March 14, 2024, demonstrates how to use methane data products from NASA's Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation (EMIT) mission.
Data from the EMIT instrument help scientists better understand the role mineral dust plays in heating and cooling the atmosphere.
8 MIN READ
New carbon dioxide and methane data, expanded spatial and temporal resolution for several datasets, and an enhanced data exploration environment are some of the updates in this beta release.
Scientists map 97 million metric tons of methane emissions from the exploitation of oil, natural gas, and coal.
