Methane Forcing

Methane Forcing is a radiative forcing mechanism attributable to the increased atmospheric concentration of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, which differentially alters the Earth's energy balance by enhancing the absorption and re emission of infrared radiation relative to preindustrial levels.
