ppm denotes parts per million), {S}-{OCEAN} was 2.8 +/- 0.4 {G}t{C} yr(-1), and {S}-{LAND} was 3.8 +/- 0.8 {G}t{C} yr(-1), with a {B}-{IM} of 0.1 {G}t{C} yr(-1) (i.e. total estimated sources marginally too low or sinks marginally too high). {T}he global atmospheric {CO}2 concentration averaged over 2022 reached 417.1 +/- 0.1 ppm. {P}reliminary data for 2023 suggest an increase in {E}-{FOS} relative to 2022 of +/- 1:1% (0.0% to 2.1 %) globally and atmospheric {CO}2 concentration reaching 419.3 ppm, 51% above the pre-industrial level (around 278 ppm in 1750). {O}verall, the mean of and trend in the components of the global carbon budget are consistently estimated over the period 1959-2022, with a near-zero overall budget imbalance, although discrepancies of up to around 1 {G}t {C}yr(-1) persist for the representation of annual to semi-decadal variability in {CO}2 fluxes. {C}omparison of estimates from multiple approaches and observations shows the following: (1) a persistent large uncertainty in the estimate of land-use changes emissions, (2) a low agreement between the different methods on the magnitude of the land {CO}2 flux in the northern extra-tropics, and (3) a discrepancy between the different methods on the strength of the ocean sink over the last decade. {T}his living-data update documents changes in methods and data sets applied to this most recent global carbon budget as well as evolving community understanding of the global carbon cycle. {T}he data presented in this work are available at https://doi.org/10.18160/{GCP}-2023 ({F}riedlingstein et al., 2023).}, keywords = {{MONDE}}, booktitle = {}, journal = {{E}arth {S}ystem {S}cience {D}ata}, volume = {15}, numero = {12}, pages = {5301--5369}, ISSN = {1866-3508}, year = {2023}, DOI = {10.5194/essd-15-5301-2023}, URL = {https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010089641}, }
