Science Highlights: • Critical tests of global atmospheric CO2 transport models that will improve global carbon budgeting • Spatially integrating CO2 data provides constraints on surface fluxes that are independent of biases in atmospheric transport models • NCAR AO2 instrument detected the broad influence of Southern Ocean O2 fluxes for the first time, providing information on ocean biogeochemistry and tests for models of carbon-climate feedbacks • High N2O found by the QCLS instrument aloft over the tropics had not been detected by surface networks, implying significant revisions to global N2O budgets • Enhanced CH4 concentrations near surface of Arctic, emission from biogenic sources or fossil fuel extraction • Asian pollution observed high in the Arctic troposphere, biomass burning plumes from SE Asia contributed to large BC loadings over Pacific, and BC loadings in the Southern Hemisphere were much lower than expected • Short-lived gases emanating from various marine environments across Pacific and from industrial areas • Signatures of global atmospheric transport modes and influence of convection, isentropic transport and Stratosphere/Troposphere exchange
