Greenhouse Gas Emission data can be validated by measurements (Point measurements in space and time) Such comparisons of modelled and measured concentrations requires modelling of atmospheric greenhouse gas emissions by atmospheric dispersion models. Atmospheric models need emission data with high temporal and spatial resolution The temporal and spatial allocation of emissions need also a model approach Introduction

Uncertainties

  • Yearly emission data (country totals) officially reported and reviewed,

associated with uncertainty estimations (10-50%).

  • Uncertainty analysis of emission data needs to address
  • uncertainty in magnitude of emissions,
  • uncertainty in spatial allocation,
  • uncertainty in temporal resolution,
  • uncertainty in substance resolution.
  • Therefore, a validation of emission data requires a scientific approach

considering model application/uncertainty, sensitivities, comparison of modelled and measured concentrations/source contributions, representatives of observations.

  • Detailed feedback from modellers is important for a further improvement
  • f the data base and the methodology.

Conclusions and Outlook

  • The ECM model is able to provide highly resolved emission data for several

grids/models. Methodology for emission distribution could be applied for GHG. Uncertainties can usually not be quantified for spatial/temporal data. Validation/sensitivity studies and feedback from modellers are essential for improvements. Improvements in process: Point source coverages Vertical distribution Line source coverages (non-urban road traffic) Improvement/actualisation of Temporal profiles (temperature dependance, spatial variation, consistency) Update of land use data
