Multi-resolution Emission Inventory for China (MEIC): model framework and 1990-2010 anthropogenic emissions Kebin He School of Environment Tsinghua University, Beijing, China With contribution from Q. Zhang, X. Yu, F. Liu, B. Zheng, M. Li, S. C. Kang, Y. Lei, H. Huo, Z. L. Yao, C. P. Hong, Q. Zhang, C. H. Chen, S. W. Wang, and G. N. Geng Presented at 17th GEIA Conference Nov. 18-20, 2015, Beijing, China
Purpose of MEIC model Understand magnitudes, trends, and driving forces of anthropogenic emissions in China Speed up the development process and update inventories timely Provide a rich emissions dataset to the community with constant methodology and underlying data Support climate and air quality modeling at different spatial resolution and time scale

NMVOC speciation in MEIC database
SO2 NOx VOC CO PM2.5 BC OC NH3 CO2
Emission maps by sector: 2010 NOx Power plants Point sources: - Power plants - Cement works - Iron & steel - Oil refineries - Gas stations Spatial proxies: - Industrial GDP - Populations - Urban/rural - Road network
Emissions data in MEIC database Years: 1990- Spatial domain: Mainland China Categories/Sectors: ~800 anthropogenic sources, aggregated to four sectors (Power, Industry, Residential, Transportation) Species: SO2, NOx, CO, NMVOC, NH3, BC, OC, PM2.5, PM10, and CO2 VOC speciation: ~600 individual species, lumped to five mechanisms (SAPRC99, SAPRC07, CB05, CBIV, RADM2 and RACM2) Spatial resolution: user defined Work in progress!
Current users of MEIC database East Asia North America The MEIC database is open accessed to the science community. More than 200 users globally. Europe
Emissions data processed and delivered through an online system http://www.meicmodel.org
