  1.

  2. Expert Panels • Panels are ad hoc. • Currently four panels: • Combustion and Industry. • Transport. • Agriculture and Nature. • Review. • Main job – Emission Inventory Guidebook.

  3. Emission Inventory Guidebook • Encourage accurate reporting of emissions. • Guidebook not Rulebook. • General and specific guidance. • Chapter 10 – Agriculture • Methodology. • Simple – only for minor sources. • Detailed.

  4. Chapter 10 - Agriculture Not included: • All forest emissions. • Natural grassland and similar ecosystems. • Non- agricultural soils. • Wetlands. • Open waters (lakes, ponds, rivers etc). • Wild animals. • Humans. • Lightning. • Volcanoes. • Gas seeps.

  5. Chapter 10 • 10 01 Cultures with Fertilizers. • NH3, N2O and NO from crops and the application of mineral fertilizers. • N2O from histosols. • Mark Theobald, Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, Edinburgh, UK

  6. Chapter 10 (cont) • 10 02 Cultures without Fertilizers. • Emissions of NH3 from legumes and grazed grassland. • Emissions of N2O from N inputs to soils other than fertilizer (crop residues, grazing, atmospheric deposition, leaching). • No changes.

  7. Chapter 10 (cont) • 10 03 Stubble Burning (NH3 and NH4). • No changes • 10 04 Enteric Fermentation (CH4). • No changes

  8. Chapter 10 (cont) • 10 05 Manure Management (C species). • CH4. • non-methane volatile organic compounds. • Jim Webb, ADAS, Wolverhampton, UK. • 10 06 Pesticides and Limestone (CO2). • No change.

  9. Chapter 10 (cont) • 10 09 Manure Management (N species). • NH3 from grazing, animal housing, storage and spreading of slurry and solid manure. • N2O, NO and N2 from manure management. • Ulrich Dämmgen, Federal Agricultural Research Centre, Braunschweig, Germany

  10. Chapter 10 (cont) • 10 XX Particulate matter (PMs). • Arable farming. • Torsten Hinz, Germany • livestock farming • No developments.

  11. 2005 issues revisited • Omissions • Particulate matter (PM) emissions. • Updating • Latest scientific developments. • S & E Europe. • Not user-friendly. • Too much detailed science. • Too little detailed guidance.

  12. New issues • Co-ordination with IPCC Guidelines • Need for consistency. • Avoidance of duplication.

  13. Strategy • Omissions/updating. • Rectify as and when resources permit. • User friendliness. • Step-by-step methodology. • Put detailed science in Appendices.. • Co-ordinate with IPCC Guidelines • use IPCC methods for main greenhouse gasses
