Summary

Abstract: The atmospheric hydrogen (H2) data have been obtained from flask air
samples returned to the CSIRO GASLAB for analysis. Typical sample
storage times range from days to weeks for some sites (e.g., Cape
Grim) to as much as one year for Macquarie Island and the Antarctic
sites. Experiments carried out to test for any change in sample 2
mixing ratio during storage have shown no consistent and ...
