Advanced Gas Detection Technology Supports Arctic Greenhouse Gas Research
Nov 25 2011
Author: Dominic Duggan on behalf of Gasmet Technologies (UK) Limited
Enormous quantities of greenhouse gases (GHG) exist within Arctic ice and frozen soils, so with the threat of global warming and increasing frequency of extreme weather phenomena, a clear understanding of the relationship between GHG in the atmosphere and in the ice/soil is vital because melting of permafrost could cause a dangerous climate tipping point. There can be few more challenging environments for monitoring gases, but PhD researcher Martin Brummell from the University of Saskatchewan has successfully employed a Gasmet DX4015 FTIR analyser to do so in the High Arctic of Canada.
