Assessment of Spatial Downscaling Used in Global Greenhouse Gas Emission Estimates
Abstract Accurate fossil fuel CO2 (FFCO2) emission estimates are crucial for tracking mitigation and constraining atmospheric‐based emissions estimation. Global gridded emissions often downscale national total emissions using spatial proxies. Here, we examine such downscaling by comparing a recently released global gridded FFCO2 inventory (GRACED) to a
