The World Data Centre for Greenhouse Gases

The World Data Centre for Greenhouse Gases (WDCGG), one of the WDCs under WMO's GAW programme, has been operating since October 1990 at the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA).

Furthermore, under an agreement between the Global Climate Observing System (GCOS) and WMO/GAW that considers the WMO/GAW global atmospheric CO2 and CH4 monitoring network as a comprehensive network of GCOS, the WDCGG is charged with data management and dissemination of value-added products on these species in order to facilitate more reliable monitoring and data analysis.

The objectives of the WDCGG are to support scientific research, assessment and correspondence policy for environmental issues such as global warming, ultimately to contribute toward reducing societal environmental risks and to meet the requirements of related environmental conventions.
