| Calibration of CO2 and CH4 is performed with reference to a single gas standard containing a known amount of CO2/CH4. It is well understood that the instrument behaves linearly within the measurement range. Calibrations are performed once per week by sampling for 30 minutes and the data is applied retrospectively applying a linear drift adjustment. The CO2/CH4 measurements are fully traceable to the international Global Atmospheric Watch (GAW) scale. This means that the gas calibration standards used to calculate the final concentrations are referenced to a common standard held at the NOAA/ESRL laboratory. To ensure this is upheld, the designated world calibration centre for Carbon Monoxide: WCC-Empa (http://www.empa.ch/plugin/template/empa/*/7571), carries out regular audits of the measurements using travelling standards. For more information please see the report from the most recent of these audits: http://www.wmo.int/pages/prog/arep/gaw/documents/CVO_2012.pdf | |

Invalidated data (flag3) includes data when % water content >5%, CO2,CH4,H2O are equal to zero and data when CO2, CH4 <100. Data when CO > 250ppb indicates lab leak and so CH4, CO2 data also invalidated at these times. Flag2 is used as a reduced quality data flag and includes data which is affected by local conditions (wind speed <2 m/s, 350>wind direction >100 degrees) |

[Hourly] Hourly: Zero, calibration and invalidated data is removed prior to averaging. Hourly data is obtained by averaging all the data within a 1 hour period for example between 00:00 - 01:00. Standard deviation and number of points used to obtain the average are provided. [Daily] Daily: Zero, calibration and invalidated data is removed prior to averaging. Daily data is obtained by averaging all the data within a 24 hour period for example between 01/01/14 00:00 - 02/01/2014 01:00. Standard deviation and number of points used to obtain the average are provided. [Monthly] Monthly: Zero, calibration and invalidated data is removed prior to averaging. Daily data is obtained by averaging all the data within a 24 hour period for example between 01/01/14 00:00 - 01/02/2014 01:00. Standard deviation and number of points used to obtain the average are provided. |

The air then passes through 2m of 1/8" stainless steel tubing and a teflon filter. Initially (2015-Oct 2019) the air was not dried and a the instrument water correction was applied. Since October 2019 the sample has been dried using a nafion drier (PERMAPURE) as we have found that since a return to the manufacturer the water correction is now not acceptable. |
