After our first annual || meeting since 2019, I realize how disastrous has been to long-term atmospheric trace and greenhouse gas observations. But not necessarily Covid itself, but rather budget cuts, loss of key personnel, severed supply lines, unsupportive government agencies.

Basically all the remote stations in our network (including my own on ) from the Arctic to the Tropics have been offline since mid/late 2020 and will remain so for a long time.

ist ein globales Netzwerk von Bodenstationen, die Treibhausgase wie , , und andere vom Boden bis in ca. 100 km Hรถhe messen. Die Daten sind unverzichtbar fรผr die weltweiten Treibhausgasmessungen mit Satelliten. Die EU-Kommission mรถchte von uns, dass wir diese Messungen fรผr die nรคchsten 20-30 Jahre fortsetzen und ausbauen.

Gestern wurden die Chairs inkl. mir selbst wiedergewรคhlt. Und es ist wohl das erste Mal seit Langem, dass keiner von uns auf einer befristeten Stelle sitzt.

Pretty difficult job as the region is not covered by the like , despite being a major . data and results are inconsistent. Time for more !
