A
Time Dependent Inverse (TDI) model is used to estimate CO2 fluxes
for 64 regions of the globe from atmospheric data in the period January
1988–December 2001. These estimated are then used for understanding interannual
variability in fluxes and simulating the CO2 concentrations at
various sites. The NIES/FRCGC transport model driven by interannually varying
meteorology is used in both part of the analysis. Estimated atmospheric CO2
concentrations agree closely with those observed at various sites globally.
