Overview
Overview
The Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research (EDGAR) provides global past and present day anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases and air pollutants by country and on spatial grid.
-
Emissions Data and Maps
- CO2 and GHG Emission Reports
- Greenhouse Gases
- Air Pollutants
- Toxic Pollutants
- HTAP
Emissions Data and Maps
EDGAR aims to inform scientists and policy makers on the evolution of the emission inventories over time for all world countries and to provide the scientific community 0.1degX0.1deg gridmaps representing the emissions sources.
-
Other Activities
- H2020 Projects
- FP7 Projects
- FP6 Projects
- Covenant of Mayors
- UNEP BC Assessment
- Trends and Drivers
- Macroregions of Europe
Other Activities
EDGAR contributed to research projects with advice on emission gridmaps and timeseries.
