So, I have a CO2 sensor that usually runs for hours or days. I think this sensor was developed for indoor climate measurements in production or office environments.

It has a built-in calibration mechanism where I need to provide current CO2 concentration in fresh air. Factory value was 400 ppm. I do this once a year.

How do other, more precise/scientific CO2 sensors handle this problem? Run a script that gets the latest value from Mauna Loa Observatory, and use that to calibrate the sensor?

Since March the K-Cor coronagraph is finally back in action on #MaunaLoa - and at the #coronagraphs symposium in Boulder the value of a ground-based instrument was highlighted by Tom Berger: it catches a beginning #CoronalMassEjection almost an hour earlier than all existing coronagraphs in space which have to cover more of the surroundings of the Sun.
#Carbondioxide levels in the atmosphere just hit a ‘depressing’ new record
#Greenhousegases, such as carbon dioxide, are measured as a proportion of the total atmosphere. The numbers are presented as the number of molecules of a particular gas out of a million total molecules, or ppm.
These data come from the #NOAA’s #MaunaLoa Observatory, which may soon be shut down because of proposed government budget cuts.

De maandelijkse weergave is niet meer ververst sedert die van februari jl. Die stond toen op 429,35 ppm. De dagelijkse weergave en die per uur is er nog wel. Op 1 mei stond die al op 433,95 ppm. Is het bureau understaffed sinds de ontslagrondes van Trump?..
