  Changes in Temperature and CO2 in the Atmosphere at Various Latitudes
  Author(s): Masaharu Nishioka*
  
  The satellite-based Earth surface temperature, ENSO index, and change rate of the CO2 concentration (ppm/year) were strongly correlated over the 40 years of observation, as reported in the previous paper. The temperature changed approximately one year after the ENSO index changed, and the change rate of the CO2 concentration followed the temperature change by several months. CO2 emission and absorption at the Earth’s surface respond to temperature changes. In this study, satellite-based Earth surface temperatures and change rates of CO2 concentrations were further investigated at various latitudes. These two variables were correlated even at various latitudes. The change rate of the CO2 concentration at northern latitudes responded to temperature changes more than that at southern latitudes. The change rates of CO2 concentrations at various latitudes between 2008 and 2011 and be.. Read More»
