 The raw data is stored on the CRDS PC at intervals of < 2 seconds. CO2 concentration is checked at the site or remotely by operators. All activities, may influence the measurement, are recorded and used for quality control.Routine calibration at the interval of 15 days are carried out. Data are backed up and analyzed at the station first. Finally, the data are checked and validated by the contributor at KOPRI.
 [Hourly] 30-second data are taken from the arithmetic mean of raw data. Median is determined every 10 minutes from the 30-second data. The median are removed when black carbon concentration is > 100 ng/m3 or wind direction is in the range of 330 - 60 degree.One hourly data are taken from the arithmetic mean of 10-minute median.
 [Daily] Daily data are taken from the arithmetic mean of background hourly data.
 [Monthly] Monthly data are taken from the arithmetic mean of background hourly data.

 The observatory building is located on the northwest edge of the Barton Peninsula of King George Island. The area is surrounded by Maxwell Bay(northwest) and Marian Cove(northeast). While the land surface around the observatory building is non-glaciated and exposed in summer, glacier is widespread located except around the station. Overall, marine biological production is relatively active in summer. In the meawhile, sea ice forms or the sea is covered with drift ices in winter. There are several year-round stations in the King George Island, one of the densely inhabitated area on Antarctica. Atmosphere over the area is, however, considered free of anthropogenic influence except local contamination source for the maintenance of the station.
The measurement system consists of inlet outside the observatory building, diaphrame pump, dehumidifier, mass flow controller and the CRDS inside the building. Sampled air moves from the inlet to the CRDS through decarbon tube with a diameter of 3/8". Flow rate into the CRDS is controlled 250 ml min-1 by the mass flow controller. Nephion dryer, 25 cm in length and chemical trap using Mg(ClO4)2 are used to remove water vapor in the sample.
The aim of the measurement is to monitor long term variation of CO2 concentration near the Antarctic Peninsula, experiencing relatively rapid climate change and to provide data, which can be used with data from other areas to understand the role of the Sourthern Ocean for atmospheric CO2.
