We include details of our calibration procedures and the stability of our calibration scale over time, which we estimate to be 3 per meg over the 11 years of calibration, and our compatibility with the international Scripps O 2 scale. The measurement records from Lutjewad and Mace Head show similar long-term trends during the period 2002–2018 of 2.31 ± 0.07 ppm yr −1 for CO 2 and − 21.2 ± 0.8 per meg yr −1 for δ ( <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M18" display="inline" overflow="scroll" dspmath="mathml"><mrow class="chem"><msub><mi mathvariant="normal">O</mi><mn mathvariant="normal">2</mn></msub><mo>/</mo><msub><mi mathvariant="normal">N</mi><mn mathvariant="normal">2</mn></msub></mrow></math> <svg:svg xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="34pt" height="14pt" class="svg-formula" dspmath="mathimg" md5hash="948b40d0edc5fb0e058d74cca032b019"><svg:image xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" ... |
