17 Atmospheric Concentration The global CO 2 concentration increased from ~277ppm in 1750 to 395ppm in 2013 (up 43%) Mauna Loa registered the first daily measurements above 400pm in May 2013 Globally averaged surface atmospheric CO 2 concentration Data from: NOAA-ESRL after 1980; the Scripps Institution of Oceanography before 1980 (harmonised to recent data by adding 0.542ppm) Source: NOAA-ESRL; Scripps Institution of Oceanography; Global Carbon Budget 2014NOAA-ESRLScripps Institution of OceanographyGlobal Carbon Budget 2014

21 Global Carbon Budget Emissions are partitioned between the atmosphere, land, and ocean Source: CDIAC; NOAA-ESRL; Houghton et al 2012; Giglio et al 2013; Joos et al 2013; Khatiwala et al 2013; Le Quéré et al 2014; Global Carbon Budget 2014CDIACNOAA-ESRLHoughton et al 2012Giglio et al 2013Joos et al 2013Khatiwala et al 2013 Le Quéré et al 2014Global Carbon Budget 2014

22 Changes in the Budget over Time The sinks have continued to grow with increasing emissions, but climate change will affect carbon cycle processes in a way that will exacerbate the increase of CO 2 in the atmosphere Source: CDIAC; NOAA-ESRL; Houghton et al 2012; Giglio et al 2013; Le Quéré et al 2014; Global Carbon Budget 2014CDIACNOAA-ESRLHoughton et al 2012Giglio et al 2013Le Quéré et al 2014Global Carbon Budget 2014 Data: GCP
