Improving measurements of SF<sub>6</sub> for the study of atmospheric transport and emissions

Sulfur hexafluoride (SF<sub>6</sub>) is a potent greenhouse gas and useful atmospheric tracer. Measurements of SF<sub>6</sub> on global and regional scales are necessary to estimate emissions and to verify or examine the performance of atmospheric transport models. Typical pr...
