Is there any related studies on using OCO-2 and Tropomi satellite data in mapping trends of CO2 and CH4?
Hi
You have tried a search in Google Scholar with this term: OCO-2 Tropomi CO2 CH4 trends?
BTW: TROPOMI is a Dutch aerospace flagship, you can find more information on the meteorological site of KNMI (mostly only in Dutch I'm afraid):
Try this one: https://www.knmi.nl/zoeken?q=TROPOMI
and this: https://www.knmi.nl/kennis-en-datacentrum/project/tropospheric-monitoring-instrument-tropomi
Data are available at: https://scihub.copernicus.eu/
Hope this helps a bit.
Johanna Mae Ga Absolutely, multiple research have utilized OCO-2 and Tropomi satellite data to trace CO2 and CH4 trends.
Saunois et al. (2020) published "The global methane budget 2000-2017," which used Tropomi satellite data to estimate worldwide methane emissions and trends. Another research, "A decade of GOSAT proxy satellite CH4 measurements," by Parker et al. (2018), examined changes in global atmospheric methane concentrations using OCO-2 and other satellite data.
Furthermore, Zhang et al. (2018) used both OCO-2 and Tropomi satellite data in "Mapping and quantifying methane emissions from oil and gas production in the Barnett Shale region using satellite observations" to map and quantify methane emissions from oil and gas production in the Barnett Shale region.
Overall, the use of satellite data such as OCO-2 and Tropomi is becoming increasingly significant in mapping and monitoring greenhouse gas changes, and many more research employing these data sources are planned in the future.
