Notes on data changes

Here we list notes explaining important emissions changes for the country.

• CRT data has been included but replaces official data reported to the EU which does not show noteworthy differences. Chnages in the CR time-series are very small.
• Changes in the TP time-series come from updated EDGAR and FAO data. FAO has adjusted data for the latest years while EDGAR has updated full time-series with the main changes coming from fugitive emissions and N2O in the energy sector. The influence on total emissions is small.

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.
