Funding
Competing interests: This research was funded through a NASA Carbon Cycle Science ROSES grant NNH13ZDA001N. The remaining authors declare no competing financial interests. This research was carried out at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, under a contract with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The work at Utrecht University is related to the program of the Netherlands Earth System Science Centre (NESSC), financially supported by the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science (OCW). The National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) is sponsored by the National Science Foundation. The MOPITT and TES projects are supported by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Earth Observing System (EOS) Program. The MOPITT team also acknowledges support from the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) and Environment Canada, along with the contributions of COMDEV and ABB BOMEM. Methane surface data were downloaded from the World Data Centre for Greenhouse Gases. We are very grateful to all the institutions and individuals who provide these surface data for researchers to use as these efforts are critical for carbon cycle science research; the following is hopefully an inclusive list of institutions and individuals, based on email response, who provide data that we use in this research: (1) NOAA, Boulder CO/Ed Dlugokencky, Laboratory for Earth Observations and Analyses, (2) ENEA, Palermo, Italy/Salvatore Piacentino, the CSIRO Flask Network/Paul Krum-mel, (3) Atmospheric Environment Division, Global Environment and Marine Department Japan Meteorological Agency/Atsushi Takizawa, and (4) Canadian Greenhouse Gas Measurement Program, Environment Canada/Doug Worthy. We would like to thank Dr. David Schimel of JPL for his helpful comments and feedback. We would like to thank the Stable Isotope Lab, CU-INSTAAR: James White, Bruce Vaughn, and Sylvia Michel for use of their data in this analysis.
