CO2 the well mixed gas?

The arrow of time means: well, everything takes time.  ::) ::)

Why would there need to be circulation systems if things didn't take time?  :)

Notice how Australia just doesn't go red? And this from a place with the highest/capita emissions. Australia just doesn't rate.

"70% of the Australian mainland is classified as semi-arid, arid/or desert; making it the driest inhabited continent on Earth."

Yeah stay green, Australia.

Yeah, even with natural CO2 emissions, we don't rate.

OCO-2 shows total CO2.

And then there's the other 30%. With manufacturing etc.

You don't understand hemispheric and seasonal differences?

There is also a diurnal cycle.

Keep going though, and you'll achieve a High School level of understanding one day.

- but you'll have to stay away from Watts up me.

Oh really? I didn't notice the bit where the CO2 levels on those maps were corrected for population size. Would you expect it to go red if a country the size of the mainland US has the population of the Netherlands?

Your Watts' arguments are at prep school drop-out level of understanding.

Try thinking for yourself instead of regurgitating the words of drongos like Watts.

Corrected? No. Correlated with seasonal changes? Yes.

Do grow up.

You did notice that this is from the OCO-2 satellite is CO2 emissions? Total? Not just anthropogenic?

Did you notice the last map was for the 12 month period. If you go to the site you can get the entire quarterly series. But I doubt you would do that; it would interrupt your bias.

Perhaps NASA, who launched the satellite, can fudge some figures for you to account for population. Good luck with that.

Yeah, showing maps of the globe and the variation in levels over those maps.

I'm glad you comprehend that bit.

very quantitative of you lee

poor lee

no numbers to show for he opinionated mass transfer coefficients.

poor poor sooky sooky lee

No argument as such. It's just a nudge-nudge type of post which doesn't actually claim anything tangible.  It just hints that there is something that no climate scientist could never have thought of.  This is basically a graphical representation of CO2 fluxes intended to educate.  Of course Watts and his diligent servant Lee will try to twist such information for their own purposes.

Lee you really are king of the spin.
- For one thing your maps don't show CO2  emissions, they show CO2 concentrations . Given that the southern hemisphere has much stronger prevailing winds, those maps are exactly what I would expect to see.

Perhaps your worst deceit though is implying that these maps show that Australia "doesn't rate".
You haven't provided any absolute scale. All that we know from your maps is that the concentrations around Australia are less than in the northern hemisphere. They may be less but they are still high.

Here is a more interesting map from the same site that you neglected to provide; A map of global anthropomorphic emissions

...poor lee better check with his Super advisors, they seem to be nervous about where the Climate is heading.

Super funds with $1 trillion in assets push for action on climate

And how high does Australia rate, with all that green? Perhaps a few spots of brown? Red - to small to really see?

As I said COC-2 satellite CO2. The bottom map is from another source, as indicted in the text.
