Revised 1996 IPCC guidelines for national greenhouse gas inventories
Updated guidelines for preparing national greenhouse gas inventories as approved by the IPCC. These guidelines are intended to assist all Parties achieve their commitments under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. From 1998, they will be mandatory for the preparation of greenhouse gas inventories for Annex-1 Parties. They include revised methodologies and default data for fuel combustion, industrial processes, agricultural soils, land-use change and forestry, waste, and methane from rice fields. Several additional methodologies for the estimations of halofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorinated hydrocarbons (PFCs), sulphur hexafluoride (SF6), ozone and aerosol precursors, and direct GHG (CO{sub 2}, CH{sub 4}, NO{sub x}) are also included in the revised guidelines.
