WMO Greenhouse Gas Bulletin (GHG Bulletin) - No.15: The State of Greenhouse Gases in the Atmosphere Based on Global Observations through 2018
Measurements of the content of radiocarbon (14C) in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) provide a unique way to discriminate between fossil fuel combustion and natural sources of CO2. Simultaneous observations of CO2 and 14C demonstrate the decline of 14C content in atmospheric CO2 caused by CO2 addition from fossil fuel combustion. This finding illustrates the importance of long-term measurements of atmospheric composition by laboratories involved in the WMO Global Atmosphere Watch (GAW) Programme in helping identify greenhouse gas emission sources.

GAW Report, 247. Izaña Atmospheric Research Center : Activity Report 2017-2018
The Izaña Atmospheric Research Center (IARC), which is part of the State Meteorological Agency of Spain (AEMET), represents a centre of excellence in atmospheric science. It manages four observatories in Tenerife, including the high altitude Izaña Observatory, which was inaugurated in 1916 and has since carried out uninterrupted meteorological and climatological observations and become a WMO Centennial Station.
This report summarizes the many activities of the Izaña Atmospheric Research Center.

Boletín sobre los gases de efecto invernadero - N°15: Estado de los gases de efecto invernadero en la atmósfera según las observaciones mundiales realizadas en 2018
Las mediciones del contenido de radiocarbono (14C) en el dióxido de carbono atmosférico (CO2) ofrecen una manera singular de distinguir entre la quema de combustibles fósiles y las fuentes naturales de CO2 . Las observaciones simultáneas de CO2 y 14C demuestran la disminución del contenido de 14C en el CO2 atmosférico provocada por la incorporación de CO2 procedente de la quema de combustibles fósiles. Este hallazgo pone de relieve la importancia de las mediciones a largo plazo de la composición atmosférica realizadas por los laboratorios que participan en el Programa de la Vigilancia de la At ...

Бюллетень ВМО по Парниковым Газам - № 15: Содержание парниковых газов в атмосфере по данным глобальных наблюдений в 2018 г.
Измерения концентрации радиоактивного углерода (14C) в составе атмосферного углекислого газа (CO2) дают уникальный способ отличить продукты сжигания ископаемого топлива от природных источников CO2. Одновременные наблюдения за CO2 и 14C свидетельствуют о снижении содержания 14C в атмосферном CO2, вызванном выбросом в атмосферу дополнительных объемов CO2 в результате сжигания ископаемого топлива. Этот вывод иллюстрирует важность проведения долгосрочных измерений состава атмосферы лабораториями, участвующими в Программе Глобальной службы атмосферы ВМО (ГСА), для содействия установлению источников ...

Bulletin sur les gaz à effet de serre - N°15: Bilan des gaz à effet de serre présents dans l’atmosphère d’après les observations effectuées à l’échelle du globe en 2018
Les mesures de la teneur en radiocarbone (14C) dans le dioxyde de carbone atmosphérique (CO2) fournissent un moyen unique d’établir une distinction entre la combustion de matières fossiles et les sources naturelles de CO2. Des observations simultanées du CO2 et du 14C font état d’une diminution de la teneur en 14C dans le CO2 atmosphérique due à l’ajout de CO2 provenant de la combustion de matières fossiles. Cette découverte illustre l’importance des mesures à long terme de la composition de l’atmosphère effectuées par les laboratoires qui participent au Programme de la Veille de l’atmosphère ...

Introducing the FORMOSAT-7/COSMIC-2 Satellite System - Next Generation Observations for Weather and Climate
The latest-generation Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere, and Climate (FORMOSAT-7/COSMIC-2) provides high-resolution observations of Earth's atmosphere, including the ionosphere. In this video, scientists and mission planners introduce the instrumentation used and describe the collaborations that made the COSMIC-2 mission possible. These experts describe how COSMIC uses a technique called radio occultation—making use of existing navigation satellite signals passing through the atmosphere to provide detailed measurements of temperature, pressure, and water vapor. They ex ...

Satellite Signals from Space: Smart Science for Understanding Weather and Climate
Want to know about COSMIC, and how satellite signals can provide information about Earth's atmosphere? This video provides anyone interested in the topic with a brief overview of the Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere, and Climate, called COSMIC. Targeted to students and teachers in Grades 5-9 but accessible to anyone, the video introduces the latest COSMIC mission (COSMIC-2), which uses satellites orbiting near Earth to measure how the atmosphere affects signals from global positioning system (GPS) satellites high above the surface. This technique is called radio occul ...

WMO Greenhouse Gas Bulletin (GHG Bulletin) - No.14: The State of Greenhouse Gases in the Atmosphere Based on Global Observations through 2017
The latest analysis of observations from the WMO GAW Programme shows that globally averaged surface mole fractions(1) calculated from this in situ network for carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) reached new highs in 2017, with CO2 at 405.5 ± 0.1 ppm(2), CH4 at 1859 ± 2 ppb(3) and N2O at 329.9 ± 0.1 ppb. These values constitute, respectively, 146%, 257% and 122% of pre-industrial (before 1750) levels. The increase in CO2 from 2016 to 2017 was smaller than that observed from 2015 to 2016 and practically equal to the average growth rate over the last decade. The influence ...
