Portable Analyzers for Methane & Nitrous Oxide Detection

Accurately track greenhouse gas emissions in forest environments with Enviro Forest’s field-ready GHG analyzers. 

Portable Precision for Greenhouse Gas Monitoring in Forests

Enviro Forest’s Methane & Nitrous Oxide Portable Analyzers are engineered for high-accuracy, real-time greenhouse gas measurements in forested ecosystems and remote field environments. Compact and rugged, our analyzers allow researchers, conservationists, and environmental regulators to detect trace levels of CH₄ and N₂O directly at emission sources without complex lab infrastructure. Utilizing advanced cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) and tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS), these devices provide lab-grade precision in handheld formats. Designed for on-the-go data capture, these analyzers support initiatives in carbon budgeting, soil gas flux research, and emissions compliance tracking. Enviro Forest helps streamline emissions monitoring with user-friendly interfaces, remote data access, and robust sensor durability.

Case Studies

case study

California, USA – Wildland Methane Mapping in Post-Fire Landscapes

Following a series of large wildfires, an environmental agency deployed Enviro Forest portable analyzers to measure methane re-emissions from burned peat layers and organic forest soils. The data helped calibrate post-disturbance carbon models and informed forest restoration strategies.

case study

North Carolina, USA – Soil Emissions in Agroforestry Systems

In collaboration with a university agriculture department, our analyzers were used to track CH₄ and N₂O flux in managed agroforestry plots. Findings influenced sustainable land-use policies and nutrient application techniques to mitigate GHG release. 

case study

Quebec, Canada – Boreal GHG Monitoring for Carbon Markets

A Canadian carbon credit initiative partnered with Enviro Forest to deploy portable GHG analyzers across multiple boreal forest sites. The analyzers helped verify baseline emissions and validated carbon sequestration claims under stringent market protocols.
