Description

Brief description

PAPILA dataset is a collection of annual emission inventories of reactive gases (CO, NMVOC, SO2, NH3, NOx), Greenhouse gases (CO2, CH4), and particles (PM25, PM10, BC, OC) from anthropogenic sources in South America, for the period 2014–2020. Here is presented PAPILA version 2.0, The first version of this inventory is available here.

PAPILA is the first AEI from anthropogenic sources covering the continental SA region, which combines local available information with a global database in a proper and rigorous way. For this purpose, global datasets were used as a basis, enriching it with locally developed inventories available in the literature until 2023 for Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Ecuador.

The Dataset consider emissions from 13 sectors  which are organized and denominated inspired mostly on the nomenclature given by CAMS: thermal power plants (ENE);  road transportation (TRO); non-road transportation (TNR); fugitive emissions (FEF); industries, including fuel consumption in manufacturing industries and construction industrial processes, (IND); solvents (SLV); refineries (REF); agricultural soils (AGS); agricultural livestock (AGL); domestic and international navigation (SHP); solid waste disposal   (including solid waste, wastewater, and incineration) (SWD); open biomass burning (OBB); residential , commercial and other sectors (RCO)

To consult the main methodological considerations and results of the previous version of INEMA, review the methodological document available for download

This inventory should contribute to the design of policies that seek to mitigate climate change and improve air quality by providing policy makers, stakeholders and scientists with qualified scientific spatial explicit emission information

Metadata

The inventories are presented as netCDF4 files, one for each year and specie, gridded  in WGS84 projection (lon-lat) with a spatial resolution of 0.1 × 0.1 covering the domain 32–120 W and 34 N–58 S.

Each file contains 14 variables corresponding to the emissions in Tg yr−1 from the13 sectors estimated and the sum of all categories (SUM)
