Abstract

This section presents the methods used for developing the emission inventory of black carbon (BC) is described, including the collection of BC emission factors, compilation of high-resolution fuel consumption data, technology divisions, and calculation of BC emissions. The atmospheric transport model used to simulate the global transport and distribution of BC in the atmosphere and the methodology used to estimate the exposure of black carbon are described.
