<Sophie Szopa> coauthored the IPCC assessment chapter on short-lived climate forcers. Its treatment of <methane> separates an atmospheric burden's chemical removal time from the relaxation time of a methane perturbation.
Additional methane can change the abundance of the <hydroxyl radical> that removes it. This chemical feedback makes the perturbation lifetime a coupled-system property rather than a simple fixed loss constant.<Short-lived Climate Forcers by Sophie Szopa and others>[Research topic and author attribution in the primary publication]{ref}
