摘要：
The longest continuous record of global atmospheric ethane levels is presented, showing that global ethane emission rates decreased by 21 per cent from 1984 to 2010, probably owing to decreased venting and flaring of natural gas in oil fields; decreased venting and flaring also account for at least 30 to 70 per cent of the decrease in methane emissions over the same period.
