Summary: | The global CO2 has increased rapidly because of the vast use of fossil fuels over past 40 years. CO, co-emitted with CO2, also increased during this period. To understand the CO2 and CO regional emission, it is necessary to monitor the atmospheric CO2 and CO. Ground-based high-resolution Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), an important technique to observe atmospheric trace gases, is used to measure the column-averaged dry-air mole fractions (DMF) of CO2 and CO [1]. The DMF of CO and CO2 are not only insensitive to vertical diffusion, but also insensitive to the variation of surface CO2 and CO concentrations. Therefore, high-resolution Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS) is used to measure atmospheric CO2 and CO and obtain daily variation of CO2 and CO in Hefei site. A weather station was installed near the FTS to record the weather data. And the wind speed is related to turbulence. So the wind speed time series and Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) are also shown in data article.
