IG3IS Webinar Series (Q3-Q4, 2025): A national GHG emission monitoring system to support policy makers and modelling efforts in Spain - current status and achievements
Speakers:
Paula Castesana, Emissions modeling researcher, Atmospheric Composition Group, Earth Sciences Department, Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) and Omaira García Rodríguez, Lead, AEMET COCCON-Spain project.
Overview:
The RESPIRE- CLIMATE (high-resolution air Emissions Systems to support modelling and monitoring Efforts) project has the goal of developing and deploying a Spanish national CO2 and CH4 emissions monitoring system that combines information from high-resolution bottom-up inventories with observations derived from ground-based instruments. A dedicated web app is produced to visualize and facilitate access to the resulting GHG emission products, serving the need for detailed GHG emission information on a national, sub-national and urban level. The results of RESPIRE-CLIMATE will support scientific and modelling efforts, such as inversion modelling and data assimilation, as well as decision-makers, helping to guide efforts in the design of effective mitigation policies.
