NH3 emissions in Europe (CRIS)

NH3 surface emission estimates derived by DECSO from CrIS (NOAA) observations of NH3 columns retrieved by EC-Canada These data files are generated within ESA project AGATE and EU project GREENEO.

Data Version and Issues

Information about the data versions can be found here. The emission estimates are still in a developing phase, and should be used with care.
