Rain-fed pulses of methane from East Africa during 2018–2019 contributed to atmospheric growth rate
East Africa is a key location for wetland emissions of methane (CH _4 ), driven by variations in rainfall that are in turn influenced by sea-surface temperature gradients over the Indian Ocean. Using satellite observations of CH _4 and an atmospheric chemistry-transport model, we quantified East Afr...
