README -- describes contents of HEMCO/EDGARv4.2/v2015-02 11 Mar 2015 GEOS-Chem Support Team geos-chem-support@g.harvard.edu Overview =============================================================================== EDGAR v4.2 emissions of NOx, CO, SO2, and NH3 from 1970-2008 were prepared from the original 0.01 x 0.01 netCDF files available on the EDGAR website: http://edgar.jrc.ec.europa.eu/overview.php?v=42 For more information about EDGAR in GEOS-Chem, please visit this link: http://wiki.geos-chem.org/EDGAR_anthropogenic_emissions Notes: =============================================================================== NO emissions obtained from NOx data through multiplication with 30/14 (NO/N). Aircraft, ship, and rail emissions are combined into the non-road transportation emission category (1A3a_c_d_e). We will exclude this emission category from GEOS-Chem because (1) there is no vertical information for aircraft emissions and (2) we cannot separate EDGAR v4.2 ship emissions for use in PARANOX.
