Description

Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Partial Pressure (ACP): CarbonTracker estimates global and regional sources and sinks of carbon dioxide by combining observational data with mathematical models. The model utilizes various data sources such as atmospheric observations, ground monitoring station data, satellite observations, and integrates complex climate and ecosystem models to infer the spatial distribution, flow paths, and contributions of various sources and sinks of carbon dioxide. This dataset undergoes interpolation procedures for pressure, water vapor, and spatial data. The unit is ppm.
