Space-based observation of global increase in urban methane emissions from 2019-2023.
Article in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Cities around the world have united to form coalitions, like the C40 network, in pursuit of ambitious climate goals. These efforts often include reducing methane emissions. However, sources and magnitudes of urban methane emissions are not well known, and there is not currently a method to evaluate implementation of mitigation measures. Here, we fill this observational gap with a tracer-tracer approach using space-based observations of methane and carbon monoxide from the TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument satellite instrument. We measure methane emissions of 92 global cities, including their broader metropolitan area, and find aggregate emissions of 31.2 Tg CH
