Here we describe and synthesize data sets and methodologies to quantify the five major components of the global carbon budget and their uncertainties. Fossil CO2 emissions (EFOS) are based on energy statistics and cement production data, while emissions from land-use change (ELUC), mainly deforestation, are based on land use and land-use change data and bookkeeping models. Atmospheric CO2 concentration is measured directly, and its growth rate (GATM) is computed from the annual changes in concentration. The ocean CO2 sink (SOCEAN) is estimated with global ocean biogeochemistry models and observation-based data products. The terrestrial CO2 sink (SLAND) is estimated with dynamic global vegetation models. The resulting carbon budget imbalance (BIM), the difference between the estimated total emissions and the estimated changes in the atmosphere, ocean, and terrestrial biosphere, is a measure of imperfect data and understanding of the contemporary carbon cycle. All uncertainties are reported as ±1σ.\n\n For the year 2021, EFOS increased by 5.1 \\% relative to 2020, with fossil emissions at 10.1 ± 0.5 GtC yr−1 (9.9 ± 0.5 GtC yr−1 when the cement carbonation sink is included), and ELUC was 1.1 ± 0.7 GtC yr−1, for a total anthropogenic CO2 emission (including the cement carbonation sink) of 10.9 ± 0.8 GtC yr−1 (40.0 ± 2.9 GtCO2). Also, for 2021, GATM was 5.2 ± 0.2 GtC yr−1 (2.5 ± 0.1 ppm yr−1), SOCEAN was 2.9 ± 0.4 GtC yr−1, and SLAND was 3.5 ± 0.9 GtC yr−1, with a BIM of −0.6 GtC yr−1 (i.e. the total estimated sources were too low or sinks were too high). The global atmospheric CO2 concentration averaged over 2021 reached 414.71 ± 0.1 ppm. Preliminary data for 2022 suggest an increase in EFOS relative to 2021 of +1.0 \\% (0.1 \\% to 1.9 \\%) globally and atmospheric CO2 concentration reaching 417.2 ppm, more than 50 \\% above pre-industrial levels (around 278 ppm). Overall, the mean and trend in the components of the global carbon budget are consistently estimated over the period 1959–2021, but discrepancies of up to 1 GtC yr−1 persist for the representation of annual to semi-decadal variability in CO2 fluxes. Comparison of estimates from multiple approaches and observations shows (1) a persistent large uncertainty in the estimate of land-use change emissions, (2) a low agreement between the different methods on the magnitude of the land CO2 flux in the northern extratropics, and (3) a discrepancy between the different methods on the strength of the ocean sink over the last decade.

SIF data (740 nm) was retrieved from the SCanning Imaging Absorption spectroMeter for Atmospheric CHartographY (SCIAMACHY) and Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment 2 (GOME-2) instruments onboard the MetOp-A satellite and was downscaled to 0.05 degree using Random Forest algorithm and harmonized with cumulative distribution function (CDF) matching technique. The uncertainty of the SIF estimates was also quantified and is provided. Validation of the harmonized product showed that it retained high spatial and temporal consistency with the original SCIAMACHY and GOME-2 SIF retrievals and had good correlations with independent airborne and ground-based SIF measurements.

\n ORNL DAAC: This dataset provides global solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) estimates at a 0.05-degree resolution (approximately 5 km at the equator) for each month from August 2002 through December 2018. SIF data (740 nm) was retrieved from the SCanning Imaging Absorption spectroMeter for Atmospheric CHartographY (SCIAMACHY) and Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment 2 (GOME-2) instruments onboard the MetOp-A satellite and was downscaled to 0.05 degree using Random Forest algorithm and harmonized with cumulative distribution function (CDF) matching technique. The uncertainty of the SIF estimates was also quantified and is provided. Validation of the harmonized product showed that it retained high spatial and temporal consistency with the original SCIAMACHY and GOME-2 SIF retrievals and had good correlations with independent airborne and ground-based SIF measurements.
