Product Description

This product contains monthly and yearly 1°x1° terrestrial CO₂ fluxes between 2007 and 2015 derived from ground-based and airborne CO₂ observations made in the North American portion of the NOAA's Global Greenhouse Gas Reference Network and its cooperative institutes. This product is derived using the CarbonTracker-Lagrange inversion framework. Detailed methods are described in Hu et al. (2019). Fluxes are available from 18 inversion ensembles, but we primarily recommend use of ensemble mean fluxes as our best estimate.

Three-hourly fluxes are also available upon request.
