In the current work, 4 years of atmospheric electric field observations at a rural site near Xanthi, Greece, are presented for 2011-2014. The site is situated in an area with very high radon fluxes and high thunderstorm activity. The annual variation is consistent with that at other Northern Hemisphere continental stations, with maxima (minima) occurring during the cold (warm) months. The diurnal variation of the atmospheric electric field both for fair weather (FW) and all weather is found to exhibit a double-peak structure corresponding to local effects and global thunderstorm activity. Comparison with the Carnegie curve shows that nighttime hours and winter months are preferable for observing the Global Electric Circuit at the Xanthi site. Finally, it is shown that atmospheric CO 2 measurements can be effectively utilized as a stratification proxy, indicating conditions of potential radon trapping, whereas CO 2 was found to anticorrelate with the atmospheric electric field during such conditions.
