Abstract

This subdirectory contains a database contributed by Paul Novelli [NOAA Climate Monitoring and Diagnostics Laboratory (CMDL), Boulder, Colorado] and Ken Masarie [Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES), University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado]. The database offers select carbon monoxide (CO) mixing ratios from eleven field and aircraft measurement programs around the world.Carbon monoxide mixing ratios in the middle troposphere have been examined for short periods of time by using the Measurement of Air Pollution from Satellites (MAPS) instrument. MAPS measures CO from a space platform, using gas filter correlation radiometry. During the 1981 and 1984 MAPS flights, measurement validation was attempted by comparing space-based measurements of CO to those made in the middle troposphere from aircraft. Before the 1994 MAPS flights aboard the space shuttle Endeavour, a correlative measurement team was assembled to provide the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) with results of their CO field measurement programs during the April and October shuttle missions. To maximize the usefulness of these correlative data, team members agreed to participate in an intercomparison of CO measurements.

Atmospheric Carbon Monoxide Mixing Ratios NOAA Climate Monitoring and Diagnostics Laboratory Cooperative Air Sampling Network (1988-1993) (DB1011)

Dataset Novelli, P. C. ; Masarie, K. A.

Individual site files provide CO mixing ratios in parts per billion (ppb) (ppb = parts in 109 by mole fraction) based on measurements from the NOAA/CMDL Cooperative Air Sampling Network beginning 1988. Data are provided through June 1993 for stations at which the first sample was collected before July 1991. All samples were analyzed for CO at the NOAA/CMDL laboratory in Boulder by gas chromatography with mercuric oxide reduction detection, and all measurements are referenced to the CMDL CO scale (Novelli et al., 1991, Novelli et al., 1994).For access to the data files, click this link to the CDIAC datamore »« less
Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Mixing Ratios from the NOAA CMDL Carbon Cycle Cooperative Global Air Sampling Network (2009)

Dataset Conway, T.J. ; Tans, P. P.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Climate Monitoring and Diagnostics Laboratory (NOAA/CMDL) has measured CO2 in air samples collected weekly at a global network of sites since the late 1960s. Atmospheric CO2 mixing ratios reported in these files were measured by a nondispersive infrared absorption technique in air samples collected in glass flasks. All CMDL flask samples are measured relative to standards traceable to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) CO2 mole fraction scale. These measurements constitute the most geographically extensive, carefully calibrated, internally consistent atmospheric CO2 data set available and are essential for studies aimed at better understanding the globalmore »« less
Monthly Atmospheric CO2 Mixing Ratios from the NOAA CMDL Carbon Cycle Cooperative Global Air Sampling Network, 1968-2002

Dataset Tans, P. P. ; Conway, T.J.

Starting in 1968, air samples were collected in cylindrical glass flasks tapered at both ends to ground glass stopcocks lubricated with hydrocarbon grease. At several sites from 1980 to 1985 samples were also collected in spherical 5-L flasks equipped with a single ground glass stopcock. These flasks were filled by the evacuation method described below. In 1983, measurements of CH4 in the flask samples were begun. Experiments at this time revealed that CO mixing ratios increased with time in the greased flasks. In 1989, 0.5-L glass flasks equipped with glass piston Teflon O-ring stopcocks were introduced into the network somore »« less

Atmospheric Methane Mixing Ratios--The NOAA/CMDL Global Cooperative Air Sampling Network, 1983-1993

Dataset Dlugokencky, E. J. ; Lang, P. M. ; Masarie, K. A. ; ...

This data base presents atmospheric methane (CH4) mixing ratios from flask air samples collected over the period 1983-1993 by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Climate Monitoring and Diagnostics Laboratory's (NOAA/CMDL's) global cooperative air sampling network. Air samples were collected approximately once per week at 44 fixed sites (37 of which were still active at the end of 1993). Samples were also collected at 5 degree latitude intervals along shipboard cruise tracks in the Pacific Ocean between North America and New Zealand (or Australia) and at 3 degree latitude intervals along cruise tracks in the South China Sea between Singaporemore »« less
