Papers led by researchers named Geert are usually excellent β youβd think arXiv would have figured this out by now!!

Is this an elaborate plot to make Plainmoor the home of all future science press conferences?
This is nice!

Join us to help map greenhouse gas emissions and biodiversity!
Thatβs such a cool PhD project!! Do you think QUB would let me do a second PhD?

Left - a large methane plume from a leaking oil and gas pipeline was detected in the Texas Permian Basin by Tanager-1 on Oct. 9. After being shared with federal and state agencies, the leak was voluntarily fixed by the operator. Right - a subsequent Tanager observation on Oct. 24 detected no methane.
2024 highlight: On Oct 9, our @planet.com Tanager-1 satellite detected a significant methane leak β equivalent to the CO2 emissions of driving 47 gas-powered cars for a year. The leak was swiftly reported and repaired by the operator.
Here's to many more successes like this in 2025! πππ°οΈ
Awesome work! The interpretability is so cool. π
I wonder if you could validate methane retrievals against ground-based spectrometers like TCCON? e.g., frm4ghg.aeronomie.be
