Although the information of this project has been used to generate European emission inventories with<br />

high time and space resolution, it was not possible to receive sectoral time profiles aggregated to the<br />

country level. Nevertheless, many data sources are available as indicator for monthly variation. This<br />

provides a good sense for the variability of anthropogenic emissions. However, regarding monthly<br />

indicator data for specific economic sectors at country level, however, data are not so easily available, in<br />

particular with global coverage. In general one can say that for OECD countries more statistics are<br />

available than for non-OECD countries.<br />

In the remainder we will summarise data sources by presenting a selection of available seasonal profiles<br />

for the main anthropogenic emission sources: fossil fuel combustion, industrial production, agriculture<br />

and biomass burning. When using these datasets to compile time profiles on a global scale one should<br />

keep in mind that actual seasonality may differ from year to year, so when constructing an average<br />

profile one should preferably use multi-year datasets to average out these differences and to be able to<br />

estimate the uncertainty in these profiles when applying them for a specific year.<br />

Based on <strong>report</strong>ed fossil fuel consumption data, supplemented by data on heating-degree days, Rotty<br />

(1987) analysed seasonal variation of fuel consumption in the 21 largest fuel consuming countries.<br />

Figure A.2.3 shows the difference for global total fuel consumption per fuel type. It clearly shows that<br />

gas is has a higher share in consumption for space heating than coal and oil. In Figure A.2.4 per fuel type<br />

the different seasonal pattern of six world regions are presented. These graphs illustrate clearly the<br />

opposite cycles of temperate regions in the Northern and Southern Hemisphere as well as the higher<br />

seasonality in temperate regions compared to tropical regions.
