Fig. 7From: Near-real-time estimation of fossil fuel CO2 emissions from China based on atmospheric observations on Hateruma and Yonaguni Islands, JapanEstimated FCO2/CH4 emission change in China based on the ΔCO2/ΔCH4 ratios observed at HAT and YON. The estimated results for 3 months (January, February, and March) in 2020, 2021, and 2022 are depicted in the left, middle, and right panels, respectively. The red circles with red lines and pink squares represent the estimates based on the 30-day moving averages and monthly averages, respectively, of the observed ΔCO2/ΔCH4 ratios. The vertical bars represent the uncertainties. For comparison, the temporal changes in FFCO2 emissions from China based on the bottom-up estimates of Le Quéré et al. (2020) (orange line) and Liu et al. (2020) (light blue line) are also shown. The gray-shaded areas correspond to the Chinese New Year holidaysBack to article page
