Unusually high temperatures in the Arctic and heavy rains in the tropics likely drove a global increase in atmospheric methane in 2007 and 2008 after a decade of near-zero growth, according to a new study. Starting in mid-2007, scientists noticed La Niña conditions beginning, waning and then intensifying in early 2008. Earlier post.)
