CO2 PPM - Trends in Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide. Data are sourced from the US Government's Earth System Research Laboratory, Global Monitoring Division. Two main series are provided: the Mauna Loa series (which has the longest continuous series since 1958) and a Global Average series (a global average over marine surface sites).
Data
Description
Data are reported as a dry air mole fraction defined as the number of molecules of carbon dioxide divided by the number of all molecules in air, including CO2 itself, after water vapor has been removed. The mole fraction is expressed as parts per million (ppm). Example: 0.000400 is expressed as 400 ppm.*

Preparation
Processing
Run the following script from this directory to download and process the data:
./scripts/process.sh
Most likely works for Unix systems only. (Not Windows compatible)
Resources
The raw data is output to ./tmp. (Not committed to the repository, you'll have to clone and run locally) The processed data is output to ./data.
