=== Other trace gases === Somewhat different formulae apply for other trace greenhouse gases such as [[methane]] and {{chem|link=nitrous oxide|N|2|O}} (square-root dependence) or [[CFCs]] (linear), with coefficients that may be found for example in the [[Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change|IPCC]] reports.<ref>[http://www.grida.no/climate/ipcc_tar/wg1/222.htm IPCC WG-1] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071213215142/http://www.grida.no/climate/ipcc_tar/wg1/222.htm|date=13 December 2007|title=}} report</ref> A year 2016 study suggests a significant revision to the methane IPCC formula.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Etminan |first1=M. |last2=Myhre |first2=G. |last3=Highwood |first3=E.
