Sources used in Greenhouse Data¶
All of these inventories have been homogenized (as much as possible/recommended) by making sure they all include the following characteristics:
- Country ISO codes (ISO-3). This is useful to easily create emission figures for all countries included in an inventory.
- Emission units in CO2 or CO2-equivalent (CO2eq). Some inventories give native units of gases (for example kt of CH4), so columns were added for easy conversion using GWPs.
Furthermore, thank you to the following people:
- Mauricio Foronda, for all the coding help
- Nicolás Guarín-Zapata (nicoguaro in github) for the neon style in matplotlib, and for inspiring my NEONIZE() function.
- My thesis supervisors: Sonia Seneviratne, Anthony Patt, Jonas Schwabb
- Open Climate Data, from which I took the UNFCCC submission inventories.
