GAUGE: methane, carbon dioxide and meteorological observations taken onboard Finlandia Seaways (2015-2017)

This dataset contains methane, carbon dioxide and meteorological observations taken onboard the commercial freight ferry Finlandia Seaways on route between Rosyth (Scotland, UK: 56°1'21.611''N 3°26'21.558'' W) and Zeebrugge (Belgium : 51°21'16.96''N 3°10'34.645''E) 2015-2017 by the Centre for Ecology and hydrology (CEH). The measurements were taken using a Picarro CRDS model G1301, Vaisala WXT510 weather station and Garmin GPS. This data was collected as part of the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) Greenhouse gAs Uk and Global Emissions (GAUGE) project (NE/K002449/1NERC) and NERC UK-SCAPE programme delivering National Capability (NE/R016429/1). The GAUGE project aimed to determine the magnitude, spatial distribution, and uncertainties of the UK's Greenhouse Gas budget using new and existing measurement networks and modelling approaches at a range of scales.
