Product Evaluation

Product Evaluation is separated into several catagories:

Comparison of current CarbonTracker flux estimates with earlier releases

Estimated surface fluxes derived from the current release of CarbonTracker are compared with estimated fluxes from previous releases.
Statistical evaluation of CarbonTracker

Statistical summary of posterior residuals of CO2 mole fractions assimilated in CarbonTracker, and a summary of comparison with vertical profile observations. Note that these aircraft profiles were not assimilated in CarbonTracker.
Comparisons with Individual Vertical Profiles

Evaluation of the calculated CO2 mole fractions against vertical profile observations by site. Note that these aircraft profiles were not assimilated in CarbonTracker.
