I nästan två århundraden har koncentrationerna av växthusgaser i atmosfären ökat som ett resultat av mänskliga aktiviteter. Detta har lett till vad som nu är känt som växthuseffekten. Behovet av att kunna förstå och förutsäga effekterna som förhöjda koncentrationer av växthusgaser har på jorden är viktigt. En diskuterad effekt är en global höjning av havsnivåerna tillföljd av höjd global medeltempFor about two centuries the atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases has been increasing as a result of human activities. This has lead to what is now commonly knows as the greenhouse effect.

Under 2007 uppmättes en kraftig ökning i tillväxt som vaThe increasing atmospheric concentration of the greenhouse gas methane (CH4) is highly relevant for current and future global warming. Since the mid-1980s atmospheric measurements have revealed large interannual fluctuations in methane growth rate. However, the causes of this feature are still not well understood.
