| Abstract |
The paper discusses efforts by the U.S. and Canada to develop an accurate and highly detailed 1985 emissions inventory which focuses on three pollutants (SO2, NOx, and VOCs) believed to play a critical role in the formation of acid deposition, and also includes information on species such as HCl, HF, NH3, and alkaline particulate matter. The 1985 emissions inventory is also designed to meet a number of research objectives for the U.S. National Acid Precipitation Assessment Program. The U.S. and Canadian data collection methodologies exhibited differences in data formats, classifications of point and area sources, emission factors, source classification codes, units of measurement, key data elements, and quality control checks. U.S. and Canadian modeling inventories differ in their respective grid sizes, allocation factors, and species classes for VOCs and total suspended particulates. The inventory methodologies used by each country were adapted and standardized to ensure consistent processing of data. |
