Dear David,

CO2 increased already up to 360 ppmv at Syowa Station, East Antarctica (see 
upper curve in the attachment). 
For more details see S. Aoki et al., Proc. NIPR Symp. Polar Meteorol. Glaciol. 
8, 14-18 (1994) and have a look at http://geoipx.nipr.ac.jp/~goin/co2.html

Best regards,
Guenter
