MethaneDART (Methane Emissions-Detection, Analysis, and Resource Management Tool) was developed as a geospatial intelligence platform designed to monitor and analyze methane emissions using satellite-based remote sensing data. Methane, a potent greenhouse gas, has seen a sharp increase in emissions over the past decade, making its detection and mitigation a critical component of climate change efforts. This tool was created to address the growing need for near real-time, high-resolution methane monitoring, particularly in the natural gas industry, where fugitive emissions represent a significant and preventable source of greenhouse gases. MethaneDART leverages advances in satellite data availability and machine learning algorithms to provide users with automated methane detection, emissions quantification, and industry-specific categorization of emission sources.

The Columbia River Basalt Technical Assistance Program (CaRBTAP) is a collaborative initiative designed to provide objective, science-based technical assistance to key stakeholders involved in carbon storage projects within the Columbia River Basalt (CRB) region. Led by Carbon Solutions LLC, alongside key partners including the Carbon Containment Lab, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Idaho National Laboratory, Washington Geological Survey, and the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries, the project seeks to accelerate the equitable and environmentally responsible deployment of carbon management technologies in the Pacific Northwest. Over the course of three years, CaRBTAP will lay the foundation for a robust carbon management industry in the region by addressing major scientific, economic, and policy-related challenges that impact large-scale CO₂ storage in basalt formations.
