“…In particular, we use measurements of the main products of combustion (i.e., CO and CO 2 ; Gamnitzer et al, 2006) from the NASA DC-8 aircraft, along with observations from five ground sites, two research ships, and four satellites to assess the capability of CAMS to monitor anthropogenic combustion.
