Remarks

Remarks
The World Data Centre for Greenhouse Gases (WDCGG) is one of the WDCs under the Global Atmosphere Watch (GAW) programme of World Meteorological Organization . It serves to gather, archive and provide data on greenhouse gases (CO2, CH4, CFCs, N2O, etc.) and related gases such as CO and H2 in the atmosphere and ocean, as observed under GAW and other programmes.
