Ninth Symposium on Integrated Observing and Assimilation Systems for the Atmosphere, Oceans, and Land Surface - 2005 AMS Annual Meeting9-13 January, 2005, San Diego, California
Over the past 420,000 years atmospheric CO2 has varied between 180 and 280 parts per million, with concomitant swings of 10° C in the Earth’s climate.
Since the Industrial Revolution, CO2 has risen dramatically, with an observed warming of 0.5° C in the past 100 years.

Configuration of source areaswith WLEF tower in the centerof polar coordinates
Example of estimation of NEE averaged for August 2000 Bayesian inversion technique using influence function derived from CSU RAMS and Lagrangian particle model flux estimation for source areas in polar coordinates within 400 km from WLEF tower (better coverage by atmospheric transport) NEE decomposed into respiration and assimilation fluxes: R=R0, A=A0 f(short wave radiation, vegetation class) inversion calculations for increasing number of concentration data (time series from towers) NEE uncertainty presented in terms of standard deviation derived from posteriori covariance matrix inflow CO2 flux is assumed to be known from a large scale transport model in further work, concentration data from additional tower will be used to improve the inflow flux given by a large scale model
