Global Wetland Methane Emissions derived from FLUXNET and the UpCH4 Model, 2001-2018

This dataset provides monthly globally gridded freshwater wetland methane emissions from 2001-2018 in nmol CH4 m-2 s-1, g C-CH4 m-2 d-1, and TgCH4 grid cell-1 month-1. The data were derived from a six-predictor random forest upscaling model (UpCH4) trained on 119 site-years of eddy covariance CH4 flux data from 43 freshwater wetland sites covering bog (8), fen (8), marsh (10), swamp (6), and wet tundra (11) wetland classes and distributed across Arctic-boreal (20), temperate (16), and (sub)tropical (7) climate zones. Weekly mean CH4 fluxes were computed from half-hourly FLUXNET-CH4 Version 1.0 fluxes. Each grid cell CH4 flux prediction was weighted by fractional grid cell wetland extent to estimate CH4 emissions using the primary global dataset of Wetland Area and Dynamics for Methane Modeling (WAD2M) product and an alternate Global Inundation Estimate from Multiple Satellites GIEMS version 2 global wetland map. Both WAD2M and GIEMS-2 maps were modified with several correction data layers to represent the monthly area covered by vegetated wetlands, excluding open water and coastal wetlands. The data products are: mean daily fluxes with no adjustment for wetland area (i.e., flux densities assuming hypothetical 100% wetland cover); mean daily fluxes adjusting for WAD2M or GIEMS-2 wetland area; and by-pixel monthly sum of freshwater wetland methane emissions adjusting for WAD2M or GIEMS-2 wetland area. The data are provided in NetCDF4 format.

Global-Gridded Daily Methane Emissions Climatology from Lake Systems, 2003-2015

This dataset provides global gridded information on lake surface area and open water CH4 emissions at a resolution of 0.25-degree x 0.25-degree for an annual climatology representative of the average conditions from 2003 to 2015. A compilation of flux data from 575 individual lake systems and 893 aggregated flux values were used, and each flux measurement was classified into one of seven ecoclimatic types. Ice-cover-regulated emission seasonality was derived from satellite microwave observations of ice cover phenology and freeze-thaw dynamics. Global lake area was determined from the merger of HydroLAKES and Climate Change Initiative Inland-Water (CCI-IW) remote-sensing data, and lakes were classified into ecoclimatic regions to facilitate linking these types with ecosystem-specific CH4 measurements in the flux compilation. Exploratory estimates of fluxes associated with ice melt and with spring and fall water-column turnover are also included. The data are provided in NetCDF format.

Global-Gridded Daily Methane Emissions from Inland Dam-Reservoir Systems

This dataset includes global maps of methane (CH4) emissions from inland dam-reservoir systems at 0.25-degree spatial resolution. Daily emission rates (as grams of CH4 per day per total area of grid cell) were estimated for boreal, temperate, and subtropical-tropical eco-climatic domains and total emissions. The annual duration of the emission season is based on freeze-thaw cycles of these water bodies as applicable. In addition, the dataset includes the total fractional area of reservoirs in each grid cell. These estimates will promote understanding of the current and future role of reservoirs in the global CH4 budget and guide efforts to mitigate reservoir-related CH4 emissions. These emission estimates are climatological; one daily value for each day of year (n=365) is provided for each grid cell. Modeled estimates were based on daily mean inputs, averaged over 2002 to 2015.

Global Inventory of Methane Emissions from Fuel Exploitation V1 (GFEI_CH4)

This is a global inventory of methane emissions from fuel exploitation (GFEI) created for the NASA Carbon Monitoring System (CMS). The emission sources represented in this dataset include fugitive emission sources from oil, gas, and coal exploitation following IPCC 2006 definitions and are estimated using bottom-up methods. The inventory emissions are based on individual country reports submitted in accordance with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). For those countries that do not report, the emissions are estimated following IPCC 2006 methods. Emissions are allocated to infrastructure locations including mines, wells, pipelines, compressor stations, storage facilities, processing plants, and refineries. The purpose of the inventory is to be used as a prior estimate of fuel exploitation emissions in inverse modeling of atmospheric methane observations. GFEI only includes fugitive methane emissions from oil, gas, and coal exploitation activities and does not include any combustion emissions as defined in IPCC 2006 category 1A. The CMS program is designed to make significant contributions in characterizing, quantifying, understanding, and predicting the evolution of global carbon sources and sinks through improved monitoring of carbon stocks and fluxes. The System uses NASA observations and modeling/analysis capabilities to establish the accuracy, quantitative uncertainties, and utility of products for supporting national and international policy, regulatory, and management activities. CMS data products are designed to inform near-term policy development and planning.
