[[Table 5.1]] lists the different sources of emissions  included in the IMAGE model. Emissions that are transported in water (nitrate, phosphorus) are discussed in [[Nutrient balances]]. Regarding the approach and spatial detail for modeling gaseous emissions, IMAGE uses four different ways to represent emissions.

* Cement and steel production. For these commodities, IMAGE-TIMER actually includes detailed demand models ([[Energy supply and demand]]). Similar to energy, the emissions are calculated by multiplying the activity levels to exogenously set emission factors.

* Other industrial activities. Here the activity levels are formulated as a regional function of industrial value added. Activity levels include for instance copper production, and the production of solvents. Again, emissions are calculated by multiplying the activity levels with emission factors.

* For the halogenated gases, finally we have implemented the approach developed by [[Harnisch et al.,2009a]]. They derived relationships with income for the main uses of halogenated gasses (HFCs, PFCs, SF6). In the actual use of the model, slightly updated parameters are used to better represent the projections as presented by [[Velders et al., 2009]]. The marginal abatement cost curve per gas still follows the methodology described by [[Harnisch et al., 2009b]].
