Topic: The Fate of Fossil-Fuel Emissions


by T.J. Blasing

Numerical models of the carbon cycle are becoming increasingly sophisticated. One result of this is that these models now require fossil-fuel carbon-dioxide emissions data with sub-annual (e.g., seasonal) time resolution. They also require finer spatial resolution than national averages (i.e., than one point per nation). Finer spatial resolution is especially needed for countries as large in area as the United States of America (U.S.A.). Here we present a summary of monthly data for the entire nation, and annual data for each state in the U.S.A.
