- •
Quantification of CO2 and CH4 emissions from a small city across time and space.
- •
Low pipeline leakage rates are likely due to few cast iron distribution pipelines.
- •
Atmospheric monitoring records intermittent natural gas CH4 emissions from Ithaca.
- •
Atmospheric CO2 isotope values correlate to natural gas use at nearby power plant.
- •
High CO2 and CH4 concentrations observed on winds from power plant's direction.
