1 Workshop QA/QC 2-3 Oct 2004 Copenhagen Comparing National GHG Inventories with Independent Estimates Including Inverse Monitoring Peter Bergamaschi, Frank Dentener, Adrian Leip, Frank Raes, European Commission, Joint Research Centre, Ispra, Italy

2 Workshop QA/QC 2-3 Oct 2004 Copenhagen VERIFICATION IPCC Good Practice Guidance, 2000 (Annex 2) International verification of inventories may include: –Comparison with international or independently compiled activity data, emission factors, etc. (BOTTOM-UP) –Comparison with atmosheric measurements at local, regional and global scales (TOP-DOWN, Inverse Modelling) 2006 Guidelines, chapter on cross-cutting issues (in preparation) –2006 Guidelines will not be extremely different from GPG 2000 –GPG LULUCF is considered a further development and improvement 1 2

9 Workshop QA/QC 2-3 Oct 2004 Copenhagen CH4 emissions: a posteriori - a priori

11 Workshop QA/QC 2-3 Oct 2004 Copenhagen Conclusions: CH4 Inverse Modelling IM gives emissions consistent with atmospheric concentrations! IM suggests higher CH 4 emissions (year 2001) for some major EU-15 emitters compared to UNFCCC values (EU NIR 2003): Germany +65 % France + 46 % UK +91% EU NIR 2004: Revision of German emission: lower CH 4 emissions from Finland (wetlands) EU-15 totals close to UNFCCC (10-30 %), but …

12 Workshop QA/QC 2-3 Oct 2004 Copenhagen General Conclusions: Verification BOTTOM-UP and TOP-DOWN Verification is feasible, and in some cases gives results that are robust and can be compared with official NIR’s Verification is swhown to: - provide inputs to improve inventories - build confidence in emissions estimates and trends - help to improve scientific understanding related to emission inventories (IPCC GPG 2000)

21 Workshop QA/QC 2-3 Oct 2004 Copenhagen Global and European regions

22 Workshop QA/QC 2-3 Oct 2004 Copenhagen EU NIR 2004 revision of German CH4 inventory 2.40 to 4.04 Tg CH 4 /yr (year 2001); revision of whole time series manure management (0.21 -> 1.31 Tg CH 4 /yr), mainly due to increased CH 4 conversion factors from liquid manure management systems consideration of manure management systems by district incorporation of smaller Bundeslaender, which in previous reports had not been included

23 Workshop QA/QC 2-3 Oct 2004 Copenhagen Forward simulation for Pallas (2002) a priori emission inventory (3 Tg CH 4 / yr from Finnish wetlands) yields much too high CH 4 mixing ratios during summer
