2. The research
Explaining greenhouse gas emission due to land use, focusing drained peatland.
Earlier and ongoing research contributes to development of the IPCC emission factors. Feeding into inventories for UNFCCC/Kyoto and mitigation actions of the society.

3. IPCC TFI (Task Force on Greenhouse Gas Inventories)

A library of EF’s

4. Why this data is of need? GHG inventories
Policy formulation and implementation
Understand linkage between management and emissions
Identify sectors with high emissions % of anthropogenic GHG emissions from AFOLU sector
Identify emission and removal trends to 2012 doubling of GHG from AFOLU and livestock
To monitor progress towards policy goals
To inform the public
