CO emissions from '''fossil fuels''' are from a merge of several inventories. The
CO biofuel emissions are from Yevich et al.[2003, Global Biogeochemical Cycles, 17 (4), 1095, doi:10.1029/2002GB001952]. To account for production of CO from co-emitted NMHC we apply scale  
emission files have been merged by Bryan Duncan using code and
inventories provided by Bob Yantosca at Harvard University:
 
* Global emissions:
** Fossil fuel: 371.230 Tg
** Bio-fuel: 165.776 Tg
* EDGAR (2000) is the base global emissions for CO
* '''Note''':: Base emissions are overwritten in regional areas with
              + EPA/NEI99    over continental USA (1999)
              + EMEP          over Europe (??)
              + BRAVO        over Northern Mexico (??)
              + David Streets over SE Asia & China (2000)
              + David Streets over China only (2001)
* no diurnal variation
* seasonal variation (+/- 10%) applied to N. America and Europe >36 N as described in Duncan et al. (2007),except for China as Streets provides monthly emissions"
