Abstract. We present a new data set of annual historical (1750–2014) anthropogenic chemically reactive gases (CO, CH4, NH3, NOx, SO2, NMVOCs), carbonaceous aerosols (black carbon – BC, and organic OC), CO2 developed with the Community Emissions Data System (CEDS). improve upon existing inventories more consistent reproducible methodology applied to all emission species, updated factors, recent estimates through 2014. The system relies on energy consumption sets regional country-specific...
Abstract. We present a suite of nine scenarios future emissions trajectories anthropogenic sources, key deliverable the ScenarioMIP experiment within CMIP6. Integrated assessment model results for 14 different species and 13 sectors are provided each scenario with consistent transitions from historical data used in CMIP6 to using automated harmonization before being downscaled provide higher source spatial detail. find that span wide range end-of-century radiative forcing values, thus making...
Abstract. Spatially distributed anthropogenic and open burning emissions are fundamental data needed by Earth system models. We describe the methods used for generating gridded datasets produced use modeling community, particularly Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6. The development of three sets historical burning, anthropogenic, future scenarios was coordinated to produce consistent over 1750–2100. Historical up 2014 were provided with annual resolution scenario in 10-year...
Abstract. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) assessments are the trusted source of scientific evidence for climate negotiations taking place under United Nations Framework Convention (UNFCCC). Evidence-based decision-making needs to be informed by up-to-date and timely information key indicators state system human influence global system. However, successive IPCC reports published at intervals 5–10 years, creating potential an gap between report cycles. We follow methods as...
Abstract. Anthropogenic emissions are the result of many different economic sectors, including transportation, power generation, industrial, residential and commercial activities, waste treatment agricultural practices. Air quality models used to forecast atmospheric composition, analyze observations reconstruct chemical composition atmosphere during previous decades. In order drive these models, gridded all compounds need be provided. This paper describes a new global inventory called...

Abstract. Anthropogenic emissions are the result of many different activities, related to transportation, power generation, industrial, residential and commercial waste treatment agriculture practices. Air quality models used forecast atmospheric composition, analyse observations reconstruct chemical composition atmosphere during previous decades. In order drive these models, gridded all compounds emitted at surface need be provided. This paper describes a new global inventory called...

The increasing data requirements of complex models demand robust, reproducible, and transparent systems to track prepare models' inputs. Here we describe version 1.0 the gcamdata R package that processes raw inputs produce hundreds XML files needed by GCAM integrated human-earth model. It features extensive functional unit testing, tracing visualization, enforces metadata, documentation, flexibility in its component data-processing subunits. Although this is specific GCAM, many structural...

Abstract. This study, performed under the umbrella of Task Force on Hemispheric Transport Air Pollution (TF-HTAP), responds to need global and regional atmospheric modelling community having a mosaic emission inventory air pollutants that conforms specific requirements: coverage, long time series, spatially distributed emissions with high resolution, sectoral resolution. The approach integrating official inventories based locally reported data, globally consistent methodology, allows...
Quality energy consumption data are important for many types of analysis, and global sets estimate trends county level consumption, derived from country reported regional reports. We present a novel basis informing uncertainty in by quantifying the changes as countries update their previously data. use 17 editions British Petroleum World Energy Statistics (2001–2017) to evaluate how is revised over time aggregate coal, oil, natural gas find that 70% non-zero points adjusted an average 1.3%...
Living in different areas is associated with impacts; the movement of people to and from those will affect energy use emissions over U.S. The implications state-to-state migration on household GHG are explored. Three million households move across state lines annually, generally North East South West. Migrating often states climates (thus heating cooling needs), fuel mixes, regional electricity grids, which leads them experience changes as a result their move. Under current trends, increases...
This study estimates fossil-based CO2 emissions and energy use from 1900–2000 for Allegheny County, PA. Total increased 1900 to1970, reflecting the significant industrial, economic, population growth that occurred in County. From 1970 to 2000, County experienced a 30% decrease total peak values, primarily because of decline industrial activity (40% value added) loss quarter its population. Despite these dramatic economic demographic transitions, per capita remained stable buoyed by...
