Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas with direct and indirect effect on global warming but its recent trend is misunderstood and still debated. My PhD aims at evaluating the ability of new satellite methane measurements to quantify the methane annual fluxes and their interannual variability. I assimilate the measurements of three satellite observing systems and the traditional observing surface network in a bayesian variational inversion system over long temporal windows consistent with the methane lifetime.First, I show that the tuning of input error statistics of each observing system allows a good agreement between the annual regional methane budgets inferred from TANSO-FTS, IASI and the surface network. This result opens the possibility...
