Methane Observations and Yearly Assessments (MOYA): lower troposphere greenhouse gas data taken over Pantanal, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil

This dataset contains CH4, CO2, CO, N2O and SF6 dry air molar fraction vertical profiles over the Pantanal, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil with air sampled using small aircraft and analysed at Laboratório de Gases de Efeito Estufa (LAGEE), Sao Jose dos Campos, Brazil.

The air was sampled during ascent of small airplane from 4.4 km above surface down to close to the ground. A series of flasks (17 flasks) were filled sequentially. The flasks were contained in a suitcase. Valves of the flasks were opened and closed by a programmable microcontroller. After sampling the suitcase were sent by mail to the high precision gas analytics laboratory LAGEE at Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (INPE), Sao Jose dos Campos, Brazil where the dry air molar fractions of the air of each flask were measured.

These data were collected as part of the Methane Observations and Yearly Assessments (MOYA) project funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) (NE/N016211/1).
