In the global effort to understand and combat climate change, networks across the world are monitoring greenhouse gases (GHGs). With their unique, high-precision CRDS technology, Picarro analyzers are used in many of these networks, including at all Integrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS) Atmosphere Thematic Centre networks. With the introduction of the PI5310 Nitrous Oxide (N2O) and Carbon Monoxide (CO) analyzer, Picarro provides the best solution for N2O and CO atmospheric monitoring that meets and exceeds World Meteorological Organization (WMO) compatibility goals and ICOS specification requirements.

A large proportion of GHGs and ammonia are emitted from agricultural soils. Finding ways to reduce these agriculture-induced emissions has the potential to mitigate climate change and air pollution. This blog will describe how the combination of the Picarro G2508 five-species gas concentration analyzer and the Eosense eosAC Automated Soil Flux Chamber is helping researchers understand and advance climate-smart agriculture. 

As regulators implement new air quality standards targeted at commercial sterilization and chemical industries, there is a growing need for precise, turn-key monitoring systems that are proven to operate long-term at the fenceline and in communities. In this new blog, Dave Miller explains how Picarro is continuing to address this need with a recent addition to its family of ethylene oxide monitoring solutions.
