The air pollutant emission inventory guidebook from the European Monitoring and Evaluation Programme (EMEP) and the European Environment Agency has been updated (bit.ly/2dZ1g3D).
It supports the reporting of emissions data under the UNECE Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution (CLRTAP) and the EU National Emission Ceilings Directive.
The 2016 edition replaces the 2013 version and provides expert guidance on compiling an atmospheric emissions inventory. It includes general information on data collection as well as chapters on specific sectors, from energy and industrial processes to agriculture and waste.
There is also a section on emissions from natural sources, such as forest fires.
