    Turbulent fluxes of carbon dioxide have been measured for at a suburban and a rural sites in Beijing city simultaneously during the period from June to December in 2009. The results show that Suburban play a role in carbon source with fluxes being always positive thought a day both in summer and in winter. In addition, daytime, nighttime and daily mean values of CO2 fluxes were all greater in winter than those in summer influenced by vegetation activity in summer and domestic heating in winter. Fluxes at the rural areas exhibited pronounced biogenic features with negative daytime fluxes and constant release of CO2 due to respiration at night in summer, and always close to zero in winter. More CO2 fluxes measurements to conduct at various urban land-use types are required in the further.
