Background / 会议背景

Methane emission reduction is a crucial imperative for curbing near-term global temperature rise and achieving significant climate benefits. However, the effectiveness of this effort hinges on the accuracy of emission monitoring and quantification. To meet this need, an integrated monitoring system that combines space-based, aerial, and ground-based technologies becomes indispensable for developing science-informed mitigation strategies.

Following the success of the previous workshops from 2023 to 2025, we are pleased to invite the global community to reconvene in Hong Kong for the 4th International Workshop on Methane Observation and Quantification. The event will be held at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology on June 8–9, 2026.

Designed as a premier global forum, this workshop will convene leading scholars and experts to collectively advance the science and technology of methane observation and quantification. Our goal is to forge the robust scientific foundation necessary to achieve global climate governance goals.

We warmly look forward to your participation in this collective endeavor to strengthen the scientific foundation and global collaboration essential for methane emission reduction.
甲烷减排是短期内控制全球温升、产生显著气候效益的关键行动,其成效高度依赖于排放监测与量化的精准性。为此,融合天、空、地多种技术手段的一体化监测体系,已成为科学支撑减排决策的核心。

为促进本领域的国际合作与学术创新,继2023-2025年成功举办三届会议后,我们谨此诚邀全球同仁共聚香江。第四届甲烷观测与量化国际研讨会定于2026年6月8日至9日,在香港科技大学召开。

本届研讨会旨在打造一个高水平的全球性交流平台,汇聚领域内顶尖学者与专家,共同探讨如何提升甲烷观测与量化的理论前沿与技术应用水平,以坚实的科学支撑,助力全球气候治理目标的实现。

我们热忱期待您的莅临,携手为强化甲烷减排的科学基础与国际合作贡献力量。
