Summary/Abstract: Urban areas contribute a significant uncertainty in carbon balance estimates, mainly due to spatial and temporaldifferences in emissions from distinct sources. A conglomerate carbon dioxide monitoring system for urban area was developedby Environmental Physics Group at the AGH University of Kraków. The system consists of 1) atmospheric CO2 concentrationand isotopic composition measurements, 2) vertical profiles of CO2 combined with atmospheric transport modeling, and 3)direct measurements of CO2 flux to the atmosphere with eddy covariance. Utilizing various measurement methods allowed toobtain independent, complementary data on the CO2 sources and transport mechanisms in an urban area. The publication pre-sents the pilot studies of the system conducted in Kraków in 2021.
