Hestia Fossil Fuel Carbon Dioxide Emissions Inventory for Urban Regions

Hestia Fossil Fuel Carbon Dioxide Emissions Inventory for Urban Regions (Hestia FFCO2) provides data products for Los Angeles Basin, Northeast corridor, Indianapolis, and other U.S. Cities. Hestia FFCO2 datasets quantify greenhouse gases (GHG), such as carbon dioxide, emitted by urban regions, since cities are major contributors of anthropogenic GHG emissions. The Hestia FFCO2 datasets provide high spatial and temporal resolution CO2 concentrations at sub-county resolutions and annual/hourly time scales, specific to the region. This data product builds upon the Vulcan Project, which grids U.S. national emissions. Hestia FFCO2 datasets are currently available from 2010 for Los Angeles, Indianapolis, Salt Lake City, the city of Baltimore, and the Baltimore/Washington Region (Northeast Corridor).
