  4. The Agriculture and Nature Panel • Ammonia • (1) A mid-term meeting was held in Poznan together with the Ammonia Abatement Group. • Items discussed with respect to the Guidebook: • consistent development of the mass flow approach • comparison of various worksheets to harmonize calculations • Guidebook chapters B1010, 1020, 1040, 1050 and 1090 will be amended and updated to • · include information reflecting the situation in the accession and the Mediterranean countries • · to allow for a higher resolution in time (months) • Authors were identified; work has not started yet.

  5. The Agriculture and Nature Panel Ammonia (2) In order to assist countries with little experience in establishing an agricultural inventory according to the Guidebook, a comprehensive book on ammonia emissions and their inventories is being written and will be published in Poznan in 2005. (3) The EAGER group (European Agricultural Emissions Researchers, with participants from Denmark, Germany, Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland and the UK) met at Wageningen (June 10 to 11) and will meet in Zuerich (November 25 to 26, 2004) to work on details of the mass flow approach and the national input figures (e.g. N excretion). (4) The updating of the IPCC guidelines will incorporate EMEP/CORINAIR knowledge on NH3 and NO emissions (starting tomorrow). Ispra 3 2

  6. The Agriculture and Nature Panel PM emissions A PM meeting (with participants from Finland, Germany, Netherlands, UK) was held at The Hague, June 16/17. The results justify writing of a preliminary chapter on PM emissions from animal houses with and without forced ventilation. A draft of the chapter was presented and discussed. Progress is being made with a chapter on PM emissions from arable agriculture. VOC emissions from forests The lead author (R Steinbrecher) will arrange a meeting of the authors in December 2004 and update the present chapter 1101. Ispra 3 2
