* CMIP5 provides monthly emissions for each decade. For historic emissions, the CMIP-provided anthropogenic and aircraft emissions represent the 1st year of the decade, while ship emissions represent the 5th year of the decade and biomass burning is a decadal average (see IPCC_AR5_historic_emission_and_scenario_data_for_chemistry_simulation.pdf, available from the Juelich ftp site, for details). We interpolate between decades for each source for each month to create a monthly file for each year.

* Biomass burning emissions for 1900 are used for all years prior to 1900.

* Future emissions are based on the RCP4.5 scenario.

* CMIP5 anthropogenic emissions are broken down by source category. We treat the “agricultural waste burning” category as the biofuel input for GOCART, and sum the other anthropogenic categories for the anthropogenic input. Ship and aircraft emissions are input separately.
