Abstract. Our understanding of how rapid Arctic warming and permafrost thaw affect global climate dynamics is restricted by limited spatio-temporal data coverage due to logistical challenges and the complex landscape of Arctic regions. It is therefore crucial to make best use of the available observations, including the integrated data analysis across disciplines and observational platforms. To alleviate the data compilation process for syntheses, cross-scale analyses, earth system models, and remote sensing applications, we introduce ARGO, a new meta-dataset comprised of greenhouse gas observations from various observational platforms across the Arctic and boreal biomes within the polar region of the northern hemisphere. ARGO provides a centralised repository for metadata on carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O) measurements linked with an interactive online tool (https://www.bgc-jena.mpg.de/argo/). This tool offers prompt metadata visualisation for the research community. Here, we present the structure and features of ARGO, underscoring its role as a valuable resource for advancing Arctic climate research and guiding synthesis efforts in the face of rapid environmental change in northern regions. The ARGO meta-dataset is openly available for download at Zenodo (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.13870390) (Vogt et al., 2024).

Short summary
We present ARGO, a meta-dataset of greenhouse gas observations in Arctic and boreal regions including information about sites where greenhouse gases were measured across different measurement techniques. This dataset provides a novel repository for metadata to facilitate synthesis efforts for regions experiencing rapid environmental change. The meta-dataset shows where measurements lack and will be updated as new measurements are made public.
