Carbon dioxide is a well-mixed greenhouse gas, but how, where, and when it is exchanged\u00a0with Earth\u2019s surface is a complex spatio-temporal, coupled natural-human problem. Nowhere\u00a0is this challenge more pronounced than in the urban environment. Fixed objects like buildings\u00a0and trees, and mobile elements like cars and people, exchange carbon (C) across a wide\u00a0range of spatial and temporal scales with a dynamic set of driving variables. As cities,\u00a0states, and nations undertake efforts to reduce and regulate greenhouse gas emissions,\u00a0we must understand these space-time variations and the underlying drivers of biogenic and\u00a0anthropogenic exchange in order to develop robust monitoring, reporting, and verification\u00a0systems. Within urban areas, the concept of urban metabolism provides a framework for\u00a0monitoring, reporting, and verification that allows us to account for imports, exports, and\u00a0transformations of carbon within urban areas.
