“…Eddy Covariance (EC) is a statistical tool to compute micrometeorological parameters, turbulent fluxes, and other useful parameters to define climate variability for environmental impact purposes [6] . Although the uses of EC tools are not limited to meteorological data alone, respective drive for experimental targets will require unique settings and diverse types of variables that would be required for computation and improvements to the parameters interested to the researcher.…”

“…Although the uses of EC tools are not limited to meteorological data alone, respective drive for experimental targets will require unique settings and diverse types of variables that would be required for computation and improvements to the parameters interested to the researcher. EC depends on the direct and speedy measurements of the real gas transport using the 3-D wind speed in real time in-situ which enabled the computations of energy fluxes and micrometeorological parameters, within the atmospheric boundary layer of the southern South China Sea with respect to the effect of Southeast Asian monsoonal seasons [1] , [5] , [6] .…”

“…Hence, there is a strong connection between the change in temperature data and the precipitation data occasioned by the monsoon meteorological conditions [4] . Statistically, it is important to understand the climate change variability due to the seasonality occasion by the monsoonal weather schemes on energy and water budget, because of the variations in Land-sea temperature caused by the high intensity of solar radiations reaching the earth surface [6] . It is this change in temperature that affected the precipitation most especially along the tropical belts.…”

Data on the micrometeorological parameters and Energy Fluxes at an intertidal zone of a Tropical Coastal Ocean was carried out on an installed eddy covariance instruments at a Muka head station in the north-western end of the Pinang Island (5°28’06’’N, 100°12’01’’E), Peninsula Malaysia. The vast source of the supply of energy and heat to the hydrologic and earth׳s energy cycles principally come from the oceans. The exchange of energies via air-sea interactions is crucial to the understanding of climate variability, energy, and water budget. The turbulent energy fluxes are primary mechanisms through which the ocean releases the heat absorbed from the solar radiations to the environment. The eddy covariance (EC) system is the direct technique of measuring the micrometeorological parameters which allow the measurement of these turbulent fluxes in the time scale of half-hourly basis at 20 Hz over a long period. The data being presented is the comparison of the two-year seasonality patterns of monsoons variability on the measured microclimate variables in the southern South China Sea coastal area.

“…Situated on latitudes 5 • 28 06" N and longitudes 100 • 12 01" E, as shown in Figure 2, the station was named the "Muka Head Station" where the instruments were mounted on a stainless-steel podium that was built in 2015. Further details on the station can be found in the published literature [14][15][16][17], and the website http://atmosfera.usm.my. It is also located approximately 3000 km from China and India and 14,000 km from the United States of America.…”

Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide and Electricity Production Due to Lockdown

We analyzed real-time measurements of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), with total electricity production and nationwide restrictions phases in China, the United States of America, Europe, and India due to the novel coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on atmospheric CO2. A decline of 3.7% in the global energy demand at about 150 million tonnes of oil equivalent (Mtoe) in the first quarter (Q1) of 2020 was recorded compared to Q1 2019 due to the cutback on international economic activities. Our results showed that: (1) electricity production for the same period in 2018, 2019, and 2020 shrunk at an offset of 9.20%, which resulted in a modest reduction (−1.79%) of atmospheric CO2 to the 2017–2018 CO2 level; (2) a non-seasonal, abrupt, and brief atmospheric CO2 decrease by 0.85% in mid-February 2020 could be due to Phase 1 restrictions in China. The results indicate that electricity production reduction is significant to the short-term variability of atmospheric CO2. It also highlights China’s significant contribution to atmospheric CO2, which suggests that, without the national restriction of activities, CO2 concentration is set to exceed 2019 by 1.79%. Due to the lockdown, it quickly decreased and sustained for two months. The results underscore atmospheric CO2 reductions on the monthly time scale that can be achieved if electricity production from combustible sources was slashed. The result could be useful for cost-benefit analyses on the decrease in electricity production of combustible sources and the impact of this reduction on atmospheric CO2.
