infrastructures covering all three areas are of highest importance. The Atmospheric Station (AS) Kresin u Pacova serves as a Czech National Monitoring Point for the measurement of occurrence and long-range transport of greenhouse gases, selected atmospheric pollutants and basic meteorological characteristics. It consists of a 250 m tall atmospheric tower equipped with meteorological sensors, gas analysers and a sampling system. Additional instruments are placed in a ground based container. The station was built and equipped according to the recommendations of the Integrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS) that will ensure for long-term (20 years and more) monitoring of greenhouse gases in Europe. The AS cooperates also with numerous Czech and international projects and databases (EMEP, GAW, InGOS, GMOS, ACTRIS, ISKO). The AS is located adjacent to the Kosetice Observatory specialized in air quality, meteorology and hydrology monitoring activities since 1988. Both infrastructures form the Co-located Station Kosetice – Kresin u Pacova
