Carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) is a primary product of combustion and a relatively inert compound in the atmosphere, and total CO 2 emissions collectively have a strong influence on global climate. Thus, accurately quantifying the accumulation of atmospheric CO 2 from its broad variety of sources is critical to predicting future trends in global temperature and climate. Models utilize emission inventories of CO 2 , combined with ocean and land biosphere models, to make predictions of future climate (Fyfe et al., 2021;Gregory et al., 2009). Thus, the proper apportionment and quantification of emission sources is important for models to accurately update how emissions change over time. For CO 2 , fossil fuel combustion is one of the primary global anthropogenic sources, but sources range widely in terms of both spatial distribution and emission type (Gurney et al., 2020a). In particular, biomass burning (BB) remains a difficult source to constrain due to its unpredictable timing and wide variety of vegetative fuels and burning conditions. As a result, emission inventories must be regularly evaluated through observations, either through direct comparison with flux measurements (Hannun et al., 2020;Jung et al., 2011) or more typically, concentration measurements in conjunction with inversion models (Cui et al., 2021;Lauvaux et al., 2012;Wang et al., 2018). Tower networks enable vital long term, continuous, high accuracy records of CO 2 levels, but are limited in spatial coverage. Satellite measurements provide global coverage, but with limited spatial and temporal resolution as well as limited comparability with in situ measurements (Eldering et al., 2017;Yokota et al., 2009). Airborne measurements of CO 2 bridge these two spatial regimes, providing data with high spatial resolution and comparability over a broad area, making them well suited for regional emission surveys.Carbon monoxide (CO) is a ubiquitous carbon oxidation intermediate with an atmospheric lifetime on the order of weeks to months and is the chemical precursor to gas-phase CO 2 formation (Holloway et al., 2000).
