Abstract:

The Global Emissions Inventory Activity (GEIA) is an activity of the International Global Atmospheric Chemistry (IGAC) Core Project of the International Geosphere-Biosphere Program (IGBP). The focus of GEIA is to make global emissions available on a one degree grid. One degree latitude by one degree longitude (1x1) datasets of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuel consumption and cement manufacture were produced for 1950, 1960, 1970, 1980 and 1990. National estimates of carbon emissions were combined with 1x1 datasets of political units and human population density to create the new 1x1 carbon emissions datasets. CO2 emissions were calculated at the country level and population density was used as a surrogate to represent the within-country distribution of CO2 emissions. CO2 emissions were calculated from country-level energy consumption data but the data management system has been designed in a modular fashion so that state, regional, and provincial level data can be inserted to provide finer resolution in subsequent versions. National estimates of CO2 emissions were calculated with the methods described in Marland and Rotty (1984) and Marland et al. (1989) using 1993 United Nations energy statistics (U.N, 1993). National estimates of CO2 emissions from cement manufacturing are from the U.S. Bureau of Mines (Solomon, 1993). Fossil fuel estimates were based on apparent consumption at the national level. The 1x1 degree political unit dataset and 1x1 degree population density datasets were produced by the Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) and are available via anonymous ftp from: "ftp://www.giss.nasa.gov" or "http://www.giss.nasa.gov/" The three datasets were combined to provide a representation of decadal distributions of CO2 emissions from 1950 to 1990. CO2 emissions from any cell are the product of the total emissions from the country and the ratio of the population of the cell to the total country population. For more information see the GEIA Homepage at: "http://geiacenter.org" The CO2 emissions data set is also available from the Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (CDIAC) as Numeric Data Package NDP-058: "ftp://cdiac.esd.ornl.gov/pub/ndp058" For more complete documentation see: "http://cdiac.esd.ornl.gov/epubs/ndp/ndp058/ndp058.html"
