===Biomass burning emissions===
Daily QFED v2.2 fire emissions. The [http://opendap.gsfc.nasa.gov:9090/dods/Emissions/QFED/NRT/ QFED Level3b] product includes BC, OC, CO, CO2, SO2 and PM25 emissions.

===Anthropogenic Aerosol and Precursor Emissions===
Fuel combustion emissions of SO2, BC, and OC in 2006 from 17 world regions are from David Streets (personal communication).  We then map those emissions to global 1x1 grids based on the gridded emission patterns from Bonds et al. (1996) for BC and OC and EDGAR 1995 for SO2.  We also assume a sulfate emission from fuel combustion sources which is 3% of the SO2 emission.<br>
Fuel combustion emissions of SO2, BC, and OC in 2006 from 17 world regions are from David Streets (personal communication).  We then map those emissions to global 1x1 grids based on the gridded emission patterns from Bonds et al. (1996) for BC and OC and EDGAR 2005 for SO2.  SO2 from non-energy sectors is emitted at 0m - 100m. SO2 from the energy sector is emitted at 100m - 500m. We also assume a sulfate emission from fuel combustion sources which is 3% of the SO2 emission.
