CH4 has a much higher impact on radiative forcing than CO2 and a much shorter perturbation lifetime.
“Comparing the impact behaviors of the same amount of CH4 and CO2, for example, CH4 has a much higher impact on radiative forcing than CO2 (i.e., approximate 120 times higher in the first year after the emission) and a much shorter perturbation lifetime (11.8 years for CH4 and millennia for CO2)17,23.”

The available copy contains a chapter listing and a notice that the chapter text is available only as a PDF; it provides no substantive passage to assess this claim. Searches for CH4, methane, radiative forcing, and the stated 11.8-year lifetime found no relevant passage in the indexed copy. (LLM, conf=0.74)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredN2O has a relatively longer perturbation lifetime of 109 years and is more potent compared to CO2 and CH4.
“N2O has a relative longer perturbation lifetime (109 years) and is also more potent compared to CO2 and CH423.”
From Risk to rely on soil carbon sequestration to offset global ruminant emissions (2023) · cites this paper as [23]
No passage in our indexed copy addresses N2O’s 109-year perturbation lifetime or compares its potency with CO2 and CH4. Searches for “N2O,” “nitrous oxide,” “109,” and “perturbation lifetime” returned no relevant passage; the material retrieved is website navigation and a notice that the chapter’s HTML is unavailable.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
