Atmospheric CO/sub 2/ concentrations have and are being monitored in the NOAA Geophysical Monitoring for Climatic Change (GMCC) program at 20 sites during the 1970s and continuing into the 1980s. There are four continuous monitoring sites and 20 flask sampling sites. The continuous monitoring data are reported as monthly averages corrected and converted to the 1981 WMO X81 mole fraction scale. The flask samples are reported as individual samples (some sites have data for the late 1960s also) which can be summarized into monthly averages.
