arbcombo -- ARB Research Seminar: Atmospheric Measurement and Inverse Modeling to Improve GHG Emission Estimates

Marc Fischer, PhD

Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building

California has committed to an ambitious plan to reduce statewide
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to 1990 levels by 2020 through
Assembly Bill 32 (AB-32), which requires accurate accounting of
emissions for effective mitigation planning and verification of
future emission reductions. Atmospheric GHG measurements from
networks of towers can be combined with existing knowledge of
emissions in a statistical inverse model -- weighing existing
knowledge with the new observations -- to more accurately
quantify GHG emissions. This study quantifies major anthropogenic
GHGs including fossil fuel CO2 (ffCO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous
oxide (N2O) emissions within California with a Bayesian inverse
modeling framework, using atmospheric observations from an
expanded GHG measurement network across California over multiple
years. For more go to the announcement at:
