al, Spatial distribution of the mean CFC-11 fluxes from the four inversions: NAME-HB (ac), NAME-InTEM (df), FLEXPART-MIT (gi), and FLEXPART-Empa (jl). The plots show the average emissions from 2008–2012 (top row; a, d, g, j); the average emissions for 2014–2017 (middle row; b, e, h, k); and the emissions for 2019 (bottom row; c, f, i, l). The black triangle and circle indicate the Gosan and Hateruma stations, respectively. The hatched areas indicate regions of the domain to which the observations have low sensitivity, and therefore, from which the derived emissions have high uncertainty4. As a result, only emission magnitudes and emission changes for the non-hatched regions are included in the values quoted in the main text.
