Within the GlobEmission project (part of Data User Element programme of ESA) top-down emission estimates will be developed from satellite observations of air constituents. The main advantage of these emission estimates are the spatial consistency, high temporal resolution and the rapid availability of these estimates to the user. Based on the requirements of 5 dedicated users 4 services will be developed. These services are: • Global biogenic emissions • Regional emissions of NOx and SO2 (China, South Africa, India) • European emission estimates of NOx, SO2 and CO • Aerosol-related emissions | |
