This common Nordic (Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden) air pollution emission inventory was compiled using country total emissions from national emission inventories that the countries submit to the CLRTAP. Our inventory was based on the 2016-2018 submissions. The inventory contains annual emissions for 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, 2012 and 2014. Components included in the inventory are: particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5), black carbon (BC), organic carbon (OC), sulphur oxides (SOx), nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOC) and ammonia (NH3). The gridding was done separately for each country, using national data and gridding methods. The emissions were harmonized to the same sector nomenclature, i.e. SNAP, and to the EEA reference grid. Spatial resolution for the inventory is 1 km × 1 km in the European grid ETRS89-LAEA (EPSG: 3035). Large point source emissions are provided with locations and stack heights included.
