Short summary
Urban carbon dynamics are critical for climate action, yet remote background monitoring often misses key details. This study utilized the unique vantage point of the 632-m Shanghai Tower to investigate carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide dynamics directly above the urban core. Our research confirms such elevated observations can effectively track metropolitan-scale footprint, revealing fossil fuels as the dominant source (85%) of excess carbon dioxide and supporting targeted reduction measures.
