Notes on data changes

Here we list notes explaining important emissions changes for the country. ’' means that the following text only applies to the TP time series, while  means that it only applies to the CR scenario. Otherwise the note applies to both scenarios.

General note: We have no country reported data for Malawi, thus CR and TP time-series are identical except for LULUCF.

  • M.AG.ELV, N2O: 2020 emissions are much higher in FAO 2023 than in FAO 2022 which was used in PRIMAP-hist v2.5 leading to higher emissions starting in 2020 in v2.5.1.
  • 1.A, CO2: 2017 emissions in CDIAC 2023 are lower than in CDIAC 2020. 2018 emissions are much higher than 2017 leading to an overall increase in emissions in the latest years.
  • 1.A, CH4: Emissions in EDGAR 8.0 are higher than in EDGAR 7.0 which was used in PRIMAP-hist v2.5. Thus cumulative and 2022 emissions in PRIMAP-hist v2.5.1 are higher.
  • 1.B.1, CH4: Emissions in EDGAR 8.0 are lower than in EDGAR 7.0 after 2000. Cumulative and 2022 emissions in PRIMAP-hist v2.5.1 are lower.
  • 3.A, CH4: 2022 emissions have changed due to new FAO and EDGAR

Changes by sector and gas

For each scenario and time frame the changes are displayed for all individual sectors and all individual gases. In the sector plot we use aggregate Kyoto GHGs in AR6GWP100. In the gas plot we usenational total emissions without LULUCF. ## country reported scenario
