Carbon source/sink information provided by column CO<sub>2</sub> measurements from the Orbiting Carbon Observatory
We quantify how well column-integrated CO<sub>2</sub> measurements from the Orbiting Carbon Observatory (OCO) should be able to constrain surface CO<sub>2</sub> fluxes, given the presence of various error sources. We use variational data assimilation to optimize weekly fluxes...
