SCC Volume 2.2. A new data set of annually averaged CO2 background levels directly measured from 1826 to 1960 is presented. It is based on a selection process of about 100,000 single samplesfrom more than 200,000 available near ground on…
SCC Volume 2.2. Observed ocean and land CO2 data show both seasonal and spatial variations, where latitude is the most important in addition to the increase in time. A simple, approximative corrective procedure is proposed which will be of use…
SCC Volume 2.2. On Christmas Day 2008, I received an e-mail from the German researcher Ernst-Georg Beck. He asked me to analyze an atmospheric CO2 time-series from 1820 to 1960. A CO2 time-series from 1820 was something special. Next day…
SCC Volume 2.2. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change classifies the human influence on our climate as extremely likely to be the main reason of global warming over the last decades. Particularly anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide are made responsible…
We have the pleasure to publish the monumental work of Ernst-Georg Beck with the title:
Reconstrucction of Atmospheric Background Levels since 1826 from Direct Measurements near
Ground, which was submitted to a journal in 2010, but were not accepted for publication before
Beck died in September 2010.
