There is a range of different inventories that provide global emission data. The [[EDGAR database|database of EDGAR]] ([[JRC/PBL 2012]]) was preferred for IMAGE given its high level of detail and the similar sectoral and regional definitions. Important alternative inventories include the database underlying the RAINS/GAINS system, the [[RETRO database]] and the [[RCP database]] ([[Lamarque, Bond et al., 2010]]). A recent overview of available inventories by [[Granier et al., 2011]] showed that there are large differences between the databases for carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, sulphur dioxide and black carbon, both on the global and regional scale. For land-use-related emissions, most emission factors are based on IPCC methodologies and parameters ([[IPCC, 2006]]). | There is a range of different inventories that provide global emission data.

IMAGE system covers almost all relevant emission sources and gases in a consistent framework, based on a few international datasets and authoritative sources. However, for some specific emissions are only included as a group, without the underlying production processes. Even more important, IMAGE does not yet include emissions from peat and peat fires, although they constitute an important source of air pollutants and CO2 ([[IPCC Ref.]]) | IMAGE system covers almost all relevant emission sources and gases in a consistent framework, based on a few international datasets and authoritative sources.
