ECLIPSE V6b global emission fields

The ECLIPSE V6b set of emissions data features a number of updates in comparison to previous versions:

• Improved regional resolution, specifically in Africa
• general update of legislation and historical data (especially 2015)
• China 13th 5-year plan
• new waste sector
• inclusion of soil NOx
• revised international shipping
• macroeconomic and energy scenarios based on WEO (IEA, 2018)
• EU-28 updated (Amann et al., 2018)
• gridding patterns updated for several sectors, including power plants, flaring, transport, industry

ECLIPSE V6b Baseline scenario (CLE)

Gridded emissions (netcdf4 format) of SO₂, NOx, NH₃, nmVOC, BC, OC, OM, PM_2.5, PM₁₀, CO, CH₄

ECLIPSE V6b Maximum technically feasible reductions (MTFR)

Gridded emissions (netcdf4 format) of SO₂, NOx, NH₃, nmVOC, BC, OC, OM, PM_2.5, PM₁₀, CO, CH₄

Revised (August 2020) shipping emissions (Baseline CLE)

The revision included a wider range of emission factors for PM components, resulting in higher emissions of these species.
