🌱 Heading to #AGU25? Don’t miss Joyeeta Bhattacharya, Ph.D.’s poster on a big question for soil scientists: How well does CRDS with the Sage gas autosampler perform next to gas chromatography (GC) for soil incubation GHG fluxes? Joyeeta and a team from University of California, Berkeley compared the Picarro G2508 + Sage gas autosampler against traditional GC workflows — revealing major insights on: • Precision comparison • Linearity • Memory effects • Workflow efficiency for high-throughput soil studies If you work in biogeochemistry, soil-atmosphere exchange, or microbial GHG research, this one’s for you. 📍 Add this poster to your AGU agenda: Rethinking Soil Incubation Greenhouse Gas Monitoring: How the Picarro G2508 Coupled with Sage Gas Autosampler Compares with Gas Chromatography 🔗 https://bit.ly/4raD5Tv 👉And visit Picarro in Booth #837 for demos of our latest analyzer solutions! #GreenhouseGas #ClimateChange #ClimateScience #Agronomy #SoilScience #AgricultureScience #TechInnovation #AirQuality #EnvironmentalScience #WaterResearch

🔥🧊 How did scientists identify hidden heat beneath the ice of a Himalayan glacier? Picarro Field Applications Scientist, Sohom Roy, Ph.D. explains. Glaciers in the Karakoram in the Himalayas are known for their unusual stability — but a new discovery from the Wadia Institute of Himalayan Geology reveals a different story. Researchers have identified a geothermal spring beneath the Changmolung Glacier, showing how subsurface heat is quietly reshaping one of the world’s most resilient ice regions. Using Picarro’s L2140-i Isotope Analyzer, the team measured the stable isotopes of oxygen and hydrogen in meltwater and spring samples, uncovering a clear hydrothermal signature linked to deeper geothermal sources. Combined with satellite data, these isotopic clues revealed rapid thinning of up to 3.9 meters per year near the spring. The findings highlight how high-precision isotope measurements can improve our understanding of glacier change and its links to geothermal and tectonic processes in mountain environments.

In response to the EU Methane Regulation, Picarro and Netz Niederösterreich (Netz NÖ)—a leading gas distribution system operator (DSO) in Austria—have successfully completed a large-scale methane emissions inspection covering 7,500 km of gas infrastructure in Lower Austria. Picarro’s advanced mobile leak detection technology and analytics platform enabled the DSO to achieve 98% network coverage and to meet the ambitious timeline. This collaboration shows how early action and innovation can ensure readiness for more demanding regulation requirements in the coming years.
