Emissions for CityZen

Last updated: August 25, 2009

Emissions for Europe have been provided by INERIS for different years. The emissions are given on a lon/lat coordinate system. To download click the years. Plots for all years were provided by Øivind Hodnebrog (UiO). The European emissions are currently merged into a new global data set by our colleagues at CNRS. A more detailed documentation of these data sets (contents, assumptions, etc.) will follow.

This emission inventory has been directly elaborated from the 0.5°x0.5° EMEP emissions available at www.emep.int

The regriding method uses a fine scale land cover database at a about 300 m resolution over the world called GlobCover. More about GlobCover can be found at : http://ionia1.esrin.esa.int/

• “Crops” and “grass” land covers are used to reallocate agricultural emissions
• “Articial areas” land cover is used to reallocate the other anthropogenic sectors
• Maritime emissions (Sector 8) are processed separately.

One file per pollutant and per year was generated. Within each file, emissions are given as an annual total per grid cell and per SNAP sector. Emission units are Mg/cell. NOx are given in equivalent NO2.

All files are organized as follows:

1st column : Countrie_code (EMEP code) 2nd column : Latitude 3rd column : Longitude 4th column : Emission Sector 1 … 14th column : Emission Sector 11

Be careful, the codes for maritime zones can have 2 or 3 digits, Chose either 2 or 3 digits for these codes, do not sum all, in doing so, you could double-count the emissions! Only SOx emissions have non zero values. 1998 and 1999 PM annual totals are the same.

Global emissions were created by CNRS based on year 2000 data and 2010 from RCP. The European emission data set created by EMEP and INERIS was merged into the global data set.
