Data Information

  Title:
Northern Hemisphere Growing Season Net Carbon Flux

  Versions:
1

  Institutions:
University of Michigan

  Source:
Aircraft observations (HIPPO, AToM) of atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations are used to infer the net flux of the northern extratropical growing season net flux.
