Methane; Nitrous Oxide; Ozone

Scientists say this invisible gas could seal our fate on climate change – “methane, an invisible, odorless gas with more than 80 times more warming power in the near-term than carbon dioxide.”

Thawing Permafrost in Siberia Could Release ‘Methane Bomb’ that Accelerates Global Warming

Submarine Permafrost Has Been Overlooked as a Major Source of Greenhouse Gases

Russia is to lose its permafrost, minister of natural resources warns – “Russian permafrost area is also the world’s biggest reservoir of organic carbon, which converts into a greenhouse gas including methane once it thaws.”

Scientists in the Arctic’s ‘Ice Factory’ Found a Worrying Sign of Climate Change – “Last year, following a historic heatwave across Siberia, the Laptev Sea did not freeze in October for the first time on record”; “All these parameters accelerate the degradation of subsea permafrost and contribute to the release of methane into the atmosphere that is soluble in seawater, and methane contained in bottom sediments.”
