TY - Data T1 - Monthly averages of carbon dioxide concentrations in Wariguan, Qinghai, 1994-2014 A1 - Zhang Xiaochun DO - 10.12072/ncdc.cgawbo.db2925.2023 PY - 2020 DA - 2020-12-16 PB - National Cryosphere Desert Data Center AB - This dataset includes the observation data from China's Variguan Global Atmospheric Background Observatory (VGABO) for the period 1994-2014, which mainly consists of monthly average values of Variguan's online carbon dioxide observations. China Valiguan Atmospheric Background Reference Observatory (WARO) was built in 1994, located on the Tibetan Plateau, 100°54'E, 36°17'N, 3810 meters above sea level, is the highest atmospheric background reference monitoring station in the world, and the first atmospheric background reference monitoring station in the hinterland of the continent in the world, which has filled the gap of the Global Atmospheric Monitoring Network (GAW) within the Eurasian continent. The establishment of this station fills a gap in the Global Atmospheric Monitoring Network (GAW) in Eurasia. The GAW is jointly invested by the Chinese government and the GEF, and is operated and managed by the China Meteorological Administration (CMA). It is a comprehensive atmospheric background reference monitoring mainly for greenhouse gases and atmospheric ozone monitoring.
