Emission Dataset of 2020

[burhangis]

Hi
I am working on wrf-chem with prep chem source utility i need global emission dataset of 2020 (in txt format) to make emission dataset, from where i can get it and use it in prep chem

Hi @burhangis, What exactly is your question?

[burhangis]

Actually i want to make simulation of co2 dataset of the year of 2020 for this one i need global emission dataset which should be in txt file(which i will use in prep chem) to make boundary...right now i am getting global emission dataset of the year of 2000 which is too much old

Well, PyChemiss only works when the user already have the emissions spatial and temporal distributed in WRF domains. You need to find a way to estimate the emissions for your simulation period.

I am getting the emission dataset from EDGAR website but the thing is that it's emission is in Tonnes (unit) and i donot know what is the unit of global emission dataset of the year of 2000 that i have..I downloaded it from this source ftp aftp.fsl.noaa.gov

How i find the unit because i searched from internet and it is saying that 2000 data is in kg/m²/s (kilograms per square meter per second) unit but when it converts it into tomes and vice versa then values are not matching
