Quasi-Real-Time Estimation of CO₂/CH₄ Emission Ratios Based on Atmospheric Observations at Hateruma Island
Overview
We present a near-real-time estimation of the CO₂/CH₄ emission ratio based on atmospheric observations on Hateruma Island.
Atmospheric Observations


Changes in atmospheric CO₂ and CH₄ concentrations observed at Hateruma and Yonaguni
Estimation Method
The ratio of atmospheric concentration variations (ΔCO₂/ΔCH₄) observed during the three months from January to March reflects the CO₂/CH₄ emission ratio in China.



Estimation of Long-term Changes in CO₂/CH₄ Emission Ratios in East Asian Continent

Estimated Changes in FFCO₂/CH₄ Emission Ratios in East Asian Continent Since 2020
Rate of change is calculated relative to the average value for the preceding nine years (2011-2019).
