Assessing the capability of different satellite observing configurations to resolve the distribution of methane emissions at kilometer scales
Anthropogenic methane emissions originate from a large number of fine-scale and often transient point sources. Satellite observations of atmospheric methane columns are an attractive approach for monitoring these emissions but have limitations from instrument precision, pixel resolution, and meas...
