A while back, I posted on an NOAA website that mapped carbon dioxide concentrations and emissions globally and locally. The Green Car Congress website has posted about a new resource that has maps of both emissions and sequestration, real and potential, for the US and Canada.
One site linked to has PDFs of the printable version of the Carbon Sequestration Atlas of the United States and Canada. The NatCarb site links to maps, static and interactive, showing both the sources and potential sinks/sequestration sites for carbon dioxide.
The National Oceanic And Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has a new Carbon Tracker website up that plots carbon dioxide concentrations and emissions globally and locally, and by time. Here’s a map of weekly mean carbon dioxide flux (emissions) for the US from January 2005:
A useful information resource for those interested in anthropogenic global warming (AGW).
In 1999, the United States Geological Survey published a two-volume atlas of distribution and climatic data for the trees and woody shrubs of North America. The two-volume set costs $63, but the entire contents, including digital versions of the climate and distribution data, is available online for all you treehuggers out there.
