The figure above shows the hourly individual in situ measurements and the calculated monthly median. Error bars displayed on the monthly median data are a 1-σ measure of the instrument's precision and should not be confused with atmospheric variability.
The global distribution of CFC-12
measured by the in situ halocarbons program is displayed above
and is compared to monthly medians measured at Summit.
