36 Conclusion Total gas data collected in 2012: 6115 samples So far, only lower threshold has been implemented for data filtering. Slope of concentration versus time has mostly linear behavior, median slope calculation is more immune as compared to a single point outlier rather than a simple linear regression Methane gas measurements indicated the most sporadic behavior as compared to the other two. Carbon dioxide measurements indicated the most stable trends.
