This page presents the most up-to-date CO2 trend and increase rate observed at Cape Ochi-ishi. The station is located at the southern tip of the cape and 50 m above sea level. The station was established in 1994 to monitor the long-term trend of greenhouse gases in higher latitude.

The values here are preliminary, Please note that there may be changed by the detailed examination in the future.

Annual CO₂ increase

2.58 ppm (2020/11/23)

The annual increase is calculated by the difference of daily mean CO₂ concentrations in the past 365 days and the concentrations in the same period of the previous year. To avoid effect of missing data, the daily mean concentrations are obtained by Thoning's exponential frequency filter [Thoning et al., 1989, J. Geophys. Res., 94(6):8549-8565].

Mean CO₂ concentrations up to 2020/11/23

Recent Day	Recent Week	Recent Month	Recent Year
419.01 ppm	418.79 ppm	418.93 ppm	416.1 ppm
