- Statement
- The steps involved in creating this data were as follows: 1) Maps of emissions of CO2 and CH4 for each sector for years 2014/15 (CO2) 2015 (CH4) and contributing to the total emissions were obtained from the National Atmospheric Emissions Inventory (NAEI). 2) Prior uncertainty in the maps for each sector was estimated based on NAEI guidance (https://naei.beis.gov.uk/resources/Sector_Summary_Factsheet_2018-v1.html#5_uncertainties CO2) and (https://uk-air.defra.gov.uk/assets/documents/reports/empire/naei/ipcc/uncertainty/tables.html) 3) Uncertainty in the maps for each of the sectors were propagated using a Monte Carlo method to quantify the uncertainty in the total emissions spatially. Full details of the Monte Carlo methodology used can be found in the supporting documentation. Uncertainty maps: There are three maps (5th, 50th and 95th quantiles) for each of CO2 and CH4 representing the baseline prior uncertainty spatially in the emissions. Dates: The annual maps provided here are for: - March 2014 to Feb 2015 (CO2) - Jan 2015 to Dec 2015 (CH4) Units: The units of CO2 fluxes in the data submission are micro mol per metre squared per second. The units of CH4 fluxes are nano mol per metre squared per second.
