Long-term measurements of the atmospheric composition are required for a full understanding of the effects of human emissions of greenhouse gases and pollutants. For historic reasons, the network of observing stations run under the auspices of the World Meteorological Organisation's Global Atmospheric Watch program has some regions which are well studied (e.g. Europe and North America) and some which are not. One region where the observing capability is limited is that part of Southeast Asia and the West Pacific known as the 'Maritime Continent'. In this project, we will work with the University of Malaya and the Malaysian Meteorological Department to develop a high-quality, long-term atmospheric monitoring program at the new field station at Bachok on the Malaysian peninsula. This site is extremely well located for studies of the outflow of the rapidly developing Southeast Asian countries, as well as for the interaction of that air with the much cleaner atmosphere in the southern hemisphere. The Universities of Cambridge and East Anglia both have experience in making long-term measurements. In particular UEA have operated a well-instrumented observing site at Weybourne on the north Norfolk coast for well over a decade. This expertise will be used to develop the existing capability in Malaysia and to design and implement a programme of long-term measurements at Bachok. The focus of the measurements in the first instance will be greenhouse gases, ozone depleting substances, and chemical pollutants. In addition we will be encouraging the involvement of other interested scientists in NCAS Composition, the UK more generally and beyond to strengthen the planned measurement program. A demonstration activity will be arranged in the winter monsoon season when the flow is strongly from Southeast Asia. This activity will have two aims: (i) ensuring high quality measurements are made at the site; and (ii) determine the characteristics of the site and its suitability for the assessment of both global and regional atmospheric composition. Many of the measurements made in this activity will then be continued in to the monitoring programme. It is important to ensure that such measurements are fully exploited, and to this end we will both collaborate with partners in Taiwan and Australia and develop a modelling strategy for the interpretation of the data in conjunction with UK modelling groups including those at Cambridge, UEA and within NCAS. Exchange visits will be used for training purposes and for the development of collaborative interpretive studies (and peer-reviewed publications). Finally, a major scientific conference will be held towards the end of the project, linking in to international programs such as WMO-GAW, IGAC or SOLAS.

需要对大气成分进行长期测量，以充分了解温室气体和污染物的人类排放的影响。出于历史原因，在世界气象组织的全球大气观察计划的主持下，观察站的网络在某些地区进行了良好的研究（例如欧洲和北美），而一些地区则进行了良好的研究。观察能力受到限制的一个地区是东南亚和西太平洋的一部分被称为“海洋大陆”。在这个项目中，我们将与马来亚大学和马来西亚的气象系合作，在马来西亚半岛的Bachok新现场站开发高质量的长期大气监测计划。该地点非常适合研究快速发展的东南亚国家的流出，以及该空气与南半球更干净的气氛的相互作用。剑桥大学和东安格利亚大学都有进行长期测量的经验。特别是，UEA在北诺福克海岸的Weybourne经营着一个有限制的观察地点，已经有十多年了。该专业知识将用于发展马来西亚的现有能力，并在Bachok设计和实施长期测量计划。首先，测量的重点是温室气体，臭氧耗尽的物质和化学污染物。此外，我们将鼓励其他有兴趣的科学家参与NCAS组成，英国更广泛地及其以外，以加强计划的测量计划。冬季季风季节将安排演示活动，当时该流量来自东南亚。该活动将有两个目标：（i）确保在现场进行高质量的测量； （ii）确定该地点的特征及其对全球和区域大气组成评估的适用性。然后，此活动中进行的许多测量将继续进行监视程序。重要的是要确保完全利用此类测量结果，为此，我们将与台湾和澳大利亚的合作伙伴合作，并制定建模策略，以与包括剑桥，UEA，UEA和NCAS的英国建模组结合使用数据来解释数据。交易访问将用于培训目的，并用于开发协作性解释研究（和同行评审的出版物）。最后，将在项目结束时举行一次大型科学会议，与WMO-GAW，IGAC或SOLAS等国际计划有关。
