(Just two sites reporting again today, as we are commencing an exercise to calibrate the sensors to a higher standard using a specially mixed calibration gas. We will show the last complete graph for 21 day averages at the four sites for the time being – up to 06 April).
The Bellbird Park site on the SW edge of the city rose to a daily average of 455 ppm on Saturday – its equal 5th highest and 96th percentile rank value for the year.
This last week saw daily mean (preliminary) values at NOAA’s Mauna Loa site exceed 425 ppm for the first time, as shown by the individual data points in the fourth graph below, about 10 ppm higher than in the southern hemisphere at Kennaook/Cape Grim in Tasmania. Both sites report data for “well-mixed” air free of local anthropogenic sources, based on their location and prevailing winds.
We’re growing the network – if you’d like to host or sponsor a sensor – leave us a message. As we add more sensor sites, comparisons across the urban area will become more robust and informative about Brisbane’s Carbon dioxide emissions.
Daily Averages
For reference, latest monthly average (Mar 2023) from CSIRO for Kennaook/Cape Grim in NW Tasmania was 415.3 ppm. (Note – these are provisional values, subject to revision folllowing sensor re-calibrations and other checks.)
