The data are provided in one comma-separated values (csv) file with seven columns:
1. Date and time (SQL style)
2. Valve position (inlet height, see below)
3. GPS latitude
4. GPS longitude
5. GPS day-of-year (UTC time)
6. Calibrated CO₂ (ppm)
7. Calibrated CH₄ (ppm)
Calibrated CH₄ and CO₂ are measured in the air at 9, 15, 20, and 35 m heights above sea surface.
Valve position corresponds to measurement height above sea level: 1 = 4 m (not used in this dataset), 2 = 9 m, 3 = 20 m, 4 = 15 m, 5 = 35 m.
The atmospheric data have been filtered for windspeed, wind direction, and CO₂ > 450 ppm (filters are designed to remove possible ship influence from data). Measurements are from a Los Gatos Research FGGA-24EP spectrometer. Data period is day-of-year 229 – 269 of 2014.
Some further details are provided in a readme file.
