Consistent with this, the annual average atmospheric
CO2 measurement stations in the Northern Hemisphere (NH) record slightly higher CO2 concentrations than stations in the Southern Hemisphere (SH).
Not exact matches
The
CO2 is sampled from air that is above the Boundary Layer; ostensibly free from surface effects.The Keeling Curve has the longest history of
CO2 continuous
measurements; but over the past 50 years a network of similar
stations has become active.
Other
stations of the global
CO2 measurement network show almost exactly the same; the most important regional variation is the greatly subdued seasonal cycle at
stations in the southern hemisphere.
(2) The observed inter hemispheric difference between the
CO2 measurements at the Mauna Loa and the South Pole
stations tracks beautifully the temporal increase and variation of the fossil fuel emissions over the last 55 years.
If anyone is still uncertain about how consistent
CO2 measurements are globally, please go to the World Data Center for Greenhouse Gases, search for
CO2 data from various
stations, and look at them yourself.
The global trend is calculated from hundreds of
CO2 measuring
stations and is consistent with independently
measurements from satellites.
The problems arise for previous periods, but then we depend on other observations than the continuous
measurements of temperature by satellites and
CO2 at MLO or other base
stations.

«Since 1990, surface ocean pH has directly been measured or calculated at several locations, with the average recent decrease estimated as 0.0019 pH units per year at the Hawaii Ocean Time - series (HOT; close to the site of long - term atmospheric
CO2 measurements at Mauna Loa)[12]; 0.0017 per year based on transects in the North Pacific [13]; 0.0012 per year at the Bermuda Atlantic Time - Series (BATS)[14] and 0.0017 per year at the European
