The Concentration and Isotopic Abundances of Carbon Dioxide in the Atmosphere

A systematic variation with season and latitude in the concentration and isotopic abundance of atmospheric carbon dioxide has been found in the northern hemisphere. In Antarctica, however, a small but persistent increase in concentration has been found. Possible causes for these variations are discu...
