Global atmospheric carbon budget: results from an ensemble of atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> inversions

Atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> inversions estimate surface carbon fluxes from an optimal fit to atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> measurements, usually including prior constraints on the flux estimates. Eleven sets of carbon flux estimates are compared, generated by different inversions...
