Carbon dioxide and oxygen are tightly coupled in land-biospheres CO2 - O2 exchange processes, while they are not coupled in oceanic exchange. For this reason, atmospheric oxygen measurements can be used to constrain the global carbon cycle, especially oceanic uptake. However, accurately quantifying the small (~1-100 ppm) variations in O2 is analytically challenging due…
As part of the DENCHAR (Development and Evaluation of Novel Compact Hygrometer for Airborne Research) inter-comparison campaign in northern Germany in 2011, a commercial cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) based gas analyzer (G2401-m, Picarro Inc., US) was installed on a Learjet to measure atmospheric water vapor, CO2, CH4, and CO. The CRDS components were identical to those chosen for…

A Picarro senior executive and a technical specialist can give you a personalized look at how:
The most effective and valuable new therapeutic products today are biologics, including peptides, proteins, and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), as well as cells, cell-derived products, and gene therapies. Many of these products are susceptible to oxidative damage by trace levels of hydrogen peroxide, which can still be present in aseptic processing equipment after post-…
The effects of climate change appear to be amplified in mountains compared with lowland areas, with rapid changes in plant community composition, soil properties, and increased substrate for biological development following retreat of glaciers. Associated soil gaseous fluxes in alpine ecosystems contribute to the global balance of greenhouse gases, but methane and carbon dioxide soil fluxes…
Methane (CH4) is a strong greenhouse gas with a global warming potential 23 times larger than that of carbon dioxide. Characterizing ecosystems as either sources or sinks for methane and their magnitudes informs on biosphere contributions to the global CH4 budget and to warming of the atmosphere. We quantified methane fluxes for the first time in a neotropical alpine…
Written by Tom Doherty, Sr. Product Manager, Picarro
The year was 2008. The second wave of therapeutic biological products was just around the corner. By now it was known that many of these products were susceptible to oxidative damage by residual hydrogen peroxide left over after aeration of the aseptic processing equipment and barrier system. How sensitive these…

High throughput system detects critical AMCs in-line at parts per trillion levels
Santa Clara, CA – March 24, 2020 – Picarro announces the launch of our fully optimized AMC monitoring system – the Picarro SAM (Sample. Analyze. Monitor.) The system is comprised of Picarro’s industry leading CRDS-based…
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from rivers are a critical missing component of current global GHG models.
Their exclusion is mainly due to a lack of in-situ measurements and a poor understanding of the spatiotemporal
dynamics of GHG production and emissions, which prevents optimal model parametrization. We combined simultaneous
observations of porewater concentrations along…

Installing the Vaporizer Salt Liner on Isotopic Water Systems.
Swap out the salt liner every time you change the septum, about every 200-300 injections. Soak in DI water until clean, or sonicate without the gasket to remove residue.

The North China Plain has been identified as a global hotspot for ammonia (NH3). To date, NH3 surface observations in the region have mostly been obtained by passive samplers with a time resolution of weeks (e.g., AMoN-China), and few studies have been performed with fast-response instruments. Thus, the detailed temporal variations of NH3 …

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas that has a short-term global warming impact. It comes from a variety of natural and anthropogenic sources which include wetlands, landfills, oil/gas/coal extraction activities and natural gas distribution leaks. Locating and containing these emissions are critical to minimizing their environmental impacts and economically beneficial when retrieving large…
Preservation and restoration of wetlands have the potential to help sequester large amounts of carbon due to the naturally high primary productivity and slow turnover of stored soil carbon. However, the anoxic environmental conditions present in wetland soils are also the largest natural contributor to global methane emissions. Therefore, uptake, storage, and loss of CO2 and CH…
High-precision greenhouse gas (GHG) measurements in remote locations are typically conducted by mobile labs that host cumbersome and high-power analyzers.
The GasScouter is a new generation of high-performance and low-power GHG analyzers.
In this poster, we introduce the GasScouter and present the results collected through various lab testing and field deployments to validate the…
Natural gas analysis and methane specifically have become increasingly important by virtue of methane’s 28-36x greenhouse warming potential compared to CO2 and accounting for 10% of total greenhouse gas emissions in the US alone. Determining the specific fingerprint of methane sources by quantifying the ethane to methane (C2:C1) ratios provides us with means to understand…
In the last several years, economically motivated adulteration (EMA) of foods has received increased attention. Two popular targets are lemon juice and honey For both of these types of adulteration analyses, the FCC is evaluating the use of Cavity Ring Down Spectroscopy (CRDS) to establish its suitability in comparison to the well established technique Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry IRMS…
Nitrous oxide (N2O) gas is among the major contributors to global warming and ozone depletion in stratosphere. Quantitative estimate of N2O production in various pathways and N2O fluxes across different reservoirs is the key to understanding the role of N2O in the global change. To achieve this goal, accurate and concurrent measurement of both N…
Photosynthesis and respiration of CO, by forests are two major unknowns in the global carbon cycle. They are the two largest and most variable fluxes, and their difference currently acts as a global net sink. With this project (2017-2020) we aim to provide new insights in the forest carbon balance by separately quantifying photosynthesis and respiration using atmospheric measurements. The…
