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.

  • No new country reported data for Saudi Arabia was included and overall changes are very small and come from updated energy CO2 data.
  • We have fixed an extrapolation issue for 1.B.2, CO2 which lead to very high emissions between 1970 and 1980 by removing the country reported data which only covered a few years with very low emissions while the years with high emissions where not covered. This has also impacted emissions for recent years.
  • Emissions in categories 4 and 5 have changed a little due to the removal of FAOSTAT data.

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
