Zusammenfassung:	Disclosed is a transport unit and a method of controlling an atmosphere therein. The transport unit has a compartment for holding cargo, an atmosphere control system for controlling an atmosphere in the compartment and first and second ports for supplying conditioned gas from the atmosphere control system to the compartment. The first and second ports open into the compartment at different, spaced-apart locations in the compartment. The atmosphere control system is operable in a first mode of operation, in which the atmosphere control system is configured to supply conditioned gas to the compartment through the first port at a higher supply flow rate than through the second port. The atmosphere control system is further operable in a second mode of operation, in which the atmosphere control system is configured to supply conditioned gas to the compartment through the second port at a higher supply flow rate than through the first port.
