1 Claire Granier LATMOS/IPSL, Paris, France Currently on-leave at the Max Planck Insitute for Meteorology, Hamburg Also at the NOAA Earth System Research Laboratory, Boulder, USA claire.granier@latmos.ipsl.fr Emission Inventories for Research Projects: Focus on Global Anthropogenic Emissions

2 Different types of emissions for different projects: Forecast of the atmospheric composition, observations from campaigns  Wide range of chemical species  high spatial and temporal resolution Global scale, long-range transport  limited number of chemical species  moderate spatial and temporal resolution  long-term variation (a few decades)  need some coupling emissions/meteorological conditions Climate studies: impact of climate on emissions and of emissions on climate  long-lived species, aerosols and a few ozone precursors  emissions models or algorithms to take into account land-use changes and human-related changes  past/future realistic scenarios (decades-century)

3 List of most publicly available global inventories Publicly available regional inventories exist for Europe, USA, Canada, India and China

4 The ACCMIP/MACCity dataset used in MACC Linked to the development of the emissions used in the IPCC 5 th Assessment report (2013)  Be as consistent as possible with other developments/projects More details: - Lamarque et al., ACP 2010 - van Vuuren et al., Climatic Change, 2011 - Granier et al., Climatic Change, 2011 - Lamarque et al, Climatic Change, 2011

5 ACCMIP = Consistent long-term emissions dataset [emissions for Atmospheric Chemistry and Climate Modeling Intercomparison Project] Developed in 2008-2009 by an international group ACCMIP emissions dataset:  Developed in support of the IPCC AR5 report  Anthropogenic and biomass burning emissions  Period covered: 1850 – 2000  Avalaible for each decade  no seasonal variation (except for ships)  0.5x0.5 degree

6 MACCity (Emission dataset as part of MACC and CityZen) After 2000, no global emissions dataset available  Use of one of the IPCC future scenarios (RCP 8.5) for 2005, 2010 and 2020. Note that, since mid-August 2010, EDGAR v4 provides 2005 global emissions MACCity anthropogenic emissions:  Linear interpolation for 1980-2011 of ACCMIP and RCP8.5 emissions  Implementation of seasonal emissions from the RETRO emissions (Schultz et al., 2007)

7 Sectors in the ACCMIP and MACCity datasets Different from the SNAP sectors in regional emissions

8 Are any of these emissions accurate?  A systematic evaluation of surface emissions has started within GEIA (Global Emissions Inventory Activity): geiacenter.org  Open to all people willing to propose new data / analyze results  Start with the 1980-2010 period  Only publicly available gridded inventories considered so far  Focus on: CO, NOx, SO2 and BC (recently added: CH4, OC, total NMVOCs and NH3)  Assess whether one of the 2000-2010 scenarios is closer than the others to regional emissions available after 2000, assuming regional emissions are more accurate

9 Examples of comparison of anthropogenic emissions

10 CO Western and Central Europe: Global inventories + EMEP and TNO EU inventories

11 CO USA: Global inventories + EPA US inventory CO China: Global and regional inventories

12 But, are regional emissions really more accurate  Based on reported data by countries/states/… CO traffic emissions from reported data CO emissions inferred from observations: systematic aircraft campaigns From Parrish, Atmos. Env. 2006 More evaluations needed: - Inverse modeling, but limited to just a few species - Long-term monitoring/specific campaigns

13 SO2 USA: Global inventories + EPA US inventory SO2 China: Global inventories + REAS and ACCESS regional inventories

14 Biomass burning in Africa: CO and BC emissions AMMABB values:  Very different from other datasets Maybe the most consistent with: - Observations - Inverse modeling studies

15 Summmary: ratio between highest and lowest emissions Green: 1 to 1.25 Yellow: 1.25 to 1.5 Orange: 1.5 to 1.75 Grey: Above 1.75 BUT: consensus ≠ accuracy

16 CO emissions from different available global datasets for 2005: including EDGAR-v4 data  More work need for understanding post-2000 global emissions

17 A few examples of uncertainties in emission inventories - More details in: Granier, C., B. Bessagnet, T. Bond, A. D’Angiola, H. Denier van der Gon, G. J. Frost, A. Heil, J. W. Kaiser, S. Kinne, Z. Klimont, S. Kloster, J.-F. Lamarque, C. Liousse, T. Masui, F. Meleux, A. Mieville, T. Ohara, J.-C. Raut, K. Riahi, M. G. Schultz, S. J. Smith, A. Thompson, J. van Aardenne, G. R. van der Werf, D. P. van Vuuren (2011) Evolution of anthropogenic and biomass burning emissions of air pollutants at global and regional scales during the 1980-2010 period, Climatic Change, DOI 10.1007/s10584-011-0154-1  Large diversity in space and time, difficult to quantify  Lack of information: non reported, not existing  Extrapolation errors when information is lacking (after 2000)  Most inventories are non-transparent about method and data  Difficulties to compare data for sectors of different definitions  Lack of different independent inventories  Lack of measurement data and model studies to confront inventories with

18 Where to find the emissions used in the intercomparison? Most data are available from the ECCAD database = Emissions of atmospheric Compounds: Compilation of Ancillary Data http://eccad.sedoo.fr ECCAD= emissions database used in MACC and MACC-II

19 CU ETHER – 23/24 Novembre 2009 A few maps of ancillary data

20 CU ETHER – 23/24 Novembre 2009 A few examples of emission maps

21 ECCAD – Emissions Totals Global Total NOx, Residential, year 2005 : 6.24 Tg/year Totals for different regions Total by regions : from 0.1 to 1.18 Tg/year Output in excel/csv

22 A few issues to be looked at in MACC-II (if some data available) VOCs speciation  Only total VOCs reported in inventories  Atmospheric models need to know the detailed speciation on emissions  Models use their own speciation, but how accurate is it?

23 Ratios Comparison Ratios Comparison: LONDON Emissions and Concentrations Traffic site Mixed site

24 How to implement such temporal profiles? detailed data only easily and freely available for UK Are there any recent data available? Season VOCs CO weekly emissions Temporal variation NOx diurnal emissions

25 PM Marine aerosols (NaCl) Biological material (pollen, spores, …) H2OH2O Resuspended dust (crustal + tires, breaks,...) Inorganic emissions - minerals (SiO 2, …) - metals (Pb, Fe, Zn, …) Elemental C, particulates Organic C, particulates Semi-volatile organic compounds Organic C, gaseousNH 3 SO 2,SO 4 -- H 2 SO 4 NO x NH 4 NO 3 (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 How to speciate PM emissions ?

26 Ship emissions: large discrepancies between global and regional emissions  Will be addressed in MACC-II in collaboration with the ACCESS European project (management of the Arctic) Changes in NOx emissions in Europe 1990-2010: ships will be the largest contributor to NOx emissions by ~2015-2020

27 Examples of Coordinated Emissions Activities: colaborations EU, USA and Canada Will be discussed at the IWAQFR workshop in Potomac, USA November 2011

28 Research Progress Issues that Limit Emissions Research Where We Are Where We Want to Go Documented Data, Data Access, & User- Friendliness Species- and Region- Dependent Inventory Methods Grid Inventories vs. Sector and Area Totals Infrequent Temporal Availability Emission Trends vs. Method Changes State, National, Regional and Global Data Not Compatible
