I wanted to advertize our new paper on Atmospheric Environmemt: X "Satellite-based estimates of nitrogen oxide and methane emissions from gas flaring and oil production activities in Sakha Republic, Russia." It is a very nice collaborative effort between natural and social sciences led by Iolanda. The results are strongly related to our ESA-funded DACES project.
In the paper there are lot of interesting analysis on nitrogen oxide and methane emissions in Tas-Yuryakh and Talakan oil fields. One of my favorite pictures is the one below illustrating methane anomalies as observed S5P/TROPOMI over Talakan. The patterns of the site are clearly visible.
