Data access

AGH Environmental Physics Group conducts research on the variability of the atmosphere composition, in particular the concentration of trace gases contributing to the greenhouse effect (carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide) conducted using gas chromatography and cavity ring-down spectroscopy, both in Krakow and in the Tatra Mountains. The greenhouse gas measurement laboratory on top of the remote mountain Kasprowy Wierch (KAS, 49°14’ N, 19°59’ E, 1989 m above sea level) is the only high-mountain station in Central and Eastern Europe continuously measuring the atmospheric concentrations of the main greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide and methane).

The graph shows the concentration of carbon dioxide over the years
