Very interesting, and a great description of methane self-feedback.
The perturbation lifetime analysis - the idea that the time constant of the atmospheric response to methane is longer than the time constant of the reaction that removes methane - comes from a beautiful paper by Michael Prather that may be of interest to anyone with some linear algebra.
