I meanwhile also saw the <a href="http://www.eumetsat.int/website/home/News/DAT_2056300.html" rel="nofollow">July 18 announcement</a> by EuMetSat that IASI Level 2 products from Metop-B have been declared operational and that they will be available on GTS from 31 July. I wonder whether they perhaps did a re-calibration that could explain the recent increase. I'll add further thoughts at the post and try to find out more background. <br /><br />Cheers, <br />Sam CaranaSam Caranahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12376449209858411775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3046701423623795423.post-40697570279068407632013-08-06T15:29:18.436-07:002013-08-06T15:29:18.436-07:00Hi Sam,

It may be related to the METOP 2/B IASI instrument going fully operational as the primary source for IASI readings. Or it can be what we have seen, that the increases in methane are beginning to accelerate in August.<br /><br />A4RApocalypse4Realhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13789600722271701780noreply@blogger.com
