**Greenhouse gas monitoring** 

# Emissions, checked against the atmosphere.

Countries and cities report emissions from inventories. The atmosphere keeps its own account: carbon dioxide and methane measured precisely on tall towers and across cities, tied to the global calibration scales, show whether reported emissions and reductions are real.

**Industry**: Climate
**Measurements**: 4
**Sources cited**: 6

1. Climate · Greenhouse gas monitoring The atmosphere keeps its own account Countries and cities report emissions from inventories built on activity data and factors. The atmosphere keeps a second, independent account. Inventory guidelines now recognise atmospheric measurements as a check, and the global greenhouse gas watch is building the operational system to make that check routine.
2. What is measured Gases at several heights Precision analysers measure carbon dioxide and methane drawn from inlets at several heights on tall towers and rooftops. Reference gases tied to the global scales calibrate them on a fixed sequence, and weather sensors record wind, temperature and the conditions that shape the boundary layer. InstrumentsPrecision gas analysers · Calibration gases · Weather sensors
3. The base node Calibrated at the station The node runs the calibration sequence, applies each calibration to the readings, flags local contamination from wind direction and spikes, and computes hourly values with their uncertainty, so every number sent is already tied to the global scales and carries its own quality flags.
4. Radio and links Fibre in town, cellular in the country Tall towers and rooftops in cities usually have fibre, which carries data and remote diagnostics. Cellular is the second path and the only one at many rural towers. Data reach the network's data centre and the global centres in their formats. LinksFibre · Public cellular
5. How it works From a tower to an inventory check Methane rises at two towers downwind of a landfill region every night. The inversion attributes more emission to the region than the inventory reports. The agency investigates, finds an unreported source, and the next inventory is corrected, with the atmospheric evidence on record.
6. From order to operation · Order Scope the question The scope starts from the question: a national inventory check, a city's emissions or a facility region. It reads existing stations, towers and partners. Nexus Observatory Inc. returns a station plan, calibration design, data processing and a price per station and per year. [Plan a deployment](https://observatory.global/contact/deployment/)
7. From order to operation · Survey Survey towers and rooftops Crews survey candidate towers and rooftops: height, footprint over the area of interest, nearby local sources, room for a shelter, power and backhaul. Footprints are modelled from local weather to choose the best inlets. Findings are recorded with drawings. Every finding is kept with the site record for the crews who follow.
8. From order to operation · Permits Tower owners and gases Tower owners agree to inlets and shelters under their climbing and safety rules, building owners approve rooftop work, and storage of high-pressure calibration cylinders follows gas safety rules. Every agreement is kept with the station record. Approvals are tracked site by site, so nothing waits unseen.
9. From order to operation · Build Build and calibrate Analysers are tested in the laboratory against reference gases traceable to the global scales, inlet systems are leak-tested, nodes are configured with the calibration sequence, enrolled with their identities and run together for weeks before shipping. Test results travel with the kit to the site. [Open the Station Builder](https://observatory.global/studio/builder/)
10. From order to operation · Install Install inlets and shelter Crews run inlet lines up the tower to several heights, install the shelter with the analyser, calibration gases, weather sensors and node, and connect power and backhaul. Every line, height and part is recorded with photographs. The site record is updated before the crew leaves.
11. From order to operation · Commission Commission against the scale Each node proves its identity. Target gases of known value are measured blind, inlets are leak-checked again, and results are compared with a travelling standard. The station enters the network when its compatibility meets the agreed goals. Results are signed and kept with the site record.
12. From order to operation · Operate Check emissions continuously Scientists and agencies see every station's readings, calibrations and flags. Atmospheric inversions turn the network's data into emissions estimates each month, and they are compared with the inventory, with every difference explained or investigated. Reports for owners and funders come from the same record.
13. From order to operation · Maintain Keep the scale Calibration gases are replaced before they run low and re-tied to the global scales, analysers are serviced on the agreed plan, software updates roll out in rings, and comparisons with neighbouring stations catch drift. Every change is kept with the station record. [Book field services](https://observatory.global/contact/field-service/)
14. Data products For scientists and inventory agencies Scientists and global centres receive calibrated greenhouse gas records; inventory agencies and cities receive atmospheric emissions estimates; network managers receive station quality reports; governments and the public receive policy evaluation reports, each tied to its stations, its calibration history and the period it covers. [See the data products](https://observatory.global/data-products/)
15. Evidence Traceable to the global scales Measurements meet the compatibility goals of the global atmosphere watch experts and the research infrastructure station specifications, estimates follow the inventory guidelines' use of atmospheric data, and results support the transparency framework of the Paris Agreement. Every reading keeps its calibration history. Drawn againstGAW Report No. 255 · ICOS Atmosphere Station Specifications · 2019 Refinement to the 2006 IPCC Guidelines · Paris Agreement, Article 13

**01** The place and its hazards

## Where it runs, and what can go wrong.

Operating contextCountries report greenhouse gas inventories under the transparency framework of the Paris Agreement, compiled with international inventory guidelines that now recognise atmospheric measurements as a check. Measurements must meet the compatibility goals set by the global atmosphere watch experts, research infrastructures publish station specifications, and the global greenhouse gas watch is building an operational system on them.

Hazards

- Measurements not tied to the global calibration scales
- Local sources near the inlet distorting background readings
- Analysers drifting between calibrations
- Gaps when cylinders run out or pumps fail
- Emissions estimates that no one checks against the air

**02** What must be measured

## What, where, how often, and under which rules.

Each measurement names where it is taken, how often, and the public standard or regulation behind it. Numbers in the sources column open the cited source below.

| Measurement | Where | Cadence | Sources |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Carbon dioxide and methane mole fractions | Inlets at several heights on tall towers and rooftops | Continuous, averaged each minute | 12 |
| Calibration against reference gases | Standards traceable to the global scales | On schedule, daily targets | 1 |
| Wind, temperature and boundary layer conditions | The tower and a weather station | Every minute | 32 |
| Emissions evaluation | Atmospheric inversions compared with the inventory | Monthly and annually | 45 |

**03** The observation stack

## From one base unit to a network.

The same blocks at every scale: instruments and a base node, a site with its radio, a fleet run as one, and a network federated on the open protocol.

1. **01** Base unit A station: a precision gas analyser with its inlet system and calibration gases, weather sensors and an edge node. [Build a station →](https://observatory.global/studio/builder/)
2. **02** Site A site: the station on a tall tower or rooftop, with a shelter, conditioned power and a backhaul. [Plan a site →](https://observatory.global/contact/deployment/)
3. **03** Fleet A national or city network of stations run to one calibration plan, with one data centre. [Managed offers →](https://observatory.global/industries/climate/solutions/)
4. **04** Network Networks exchange data with global centres and research infrastructures, tied to the global calibration scales. [The open protocol →](https://observatory.global/protocol/)

Radio and links

### Fibre

Tall towers and rooftops in cities usually have fibre; data and remote diagnostics ride it.

Radio and links

### Public cellular

Cellular is the second path and the only one at rural towers.

Edge computeThe node runs the calibration sequence, applies the calibrations to every reading, flags local contamination from wind and spikes, and computes hourly values with their uncertainty before sending them.

PowerMains with an uninterruptible supply; the analyser and inlet system need stable power and temperature, so the shelter is conditioned.

**05** From order to operation

## Every step, from the first call to a running site.

The same crew and the same record carry the work from scope to maintenance.

1. 01 Order Scope the question The scope starts from the question: a national inventory check, a city's emissions or a facility region. It reads existing stations, towers and partners. Nexus Observatory Inc. returns a station plan, calibration design, data processing and a price per station and per year. 46
2. 02 Survey Survey towers and rooftops Crews survey candidate towers and rooftops: height, footprint over the area of interest, nearby local sources, room for a shelter, power and backhaul. Footprints are modelled from local weather to choose the best inlets. Findings are recorded with drawings. Every finding is kept with the site record for the crews who follow. 2
3. 03 Permits Tower owners and gases Tower owners agree to inlets and shelters under their climbing and safety rules, building owners approve rooftop work, and storage of high-pressure calibration cylinders follows gas safety rules. Every agreement is kept with the station record. Approvals are tracked site by site, so nothing waits unseen.
4. 04 Build Build and calibrate Analysers are tested in the laboratory against reference gases traceable to the global scales, inlet systems are leak-tested, nodes are configured with the calibration sequence, enrolled with their identities and run together for weeks before shipping. Test results travel with the kit to the site. 1
5. 05 Install Install inlets and shelter Crews run inlet lines up the tower to several heights, install the shelter with the analyser, calibration gases, weather sensors and node, and connect power and backhaul. Every line, height and part is recorded with photographs. The site record is updated before the crew leaves.
6. 06 Commission Commission against the scale Each node proves its identity. Target gases of known value are measured blind, inlets are leak-checked again, and results are compared with a travelling standard. The station enters the network when its compatibility meets the agreed goals. Results are signed and kept with the site record. 12
7. 07 Operate Check emissions continuously Scientists and agencies see every station's readings, calibrations and flags. Atmospheric inversions turn the network's data into emissions estimates each month, and they are compared with the inventory, with every difference explained or investigated. Reports for owners and funders come from the same record. 5
