In addition, for the IPCC sources µ/DQGXVHFKDQJHDQGIRUHVWU\(LUCF) and ‘Waste’ there is no<br />

readily available data in time-series per country. Here, in line with the approach taken for the<br />

compilation of the GEIA NH 3 inventory, biomass burning data (vegetation fires) for LUCF were<br />

based on FAO <strong>report</strong>s providing 10-year or 5-year averaged estimates (see Tables 4.1 and 4.2),<br />

supplemented with an estimate for agricultural waste burning essentially based on the methodology<br />

used for NH 3 . Fig. 4.1 shows the resulting regional trend in deforestation based on the assumptions<br />

used.<br />

Note: The following procedure was used to connect the annual average in the 80's with the annual average in the period<br />

90-95:<br />

(a) the 1990 level was chosen to be 2/3*90's-average + 1/3*80's-average<br />

(b) the linear trend 1990-1995 was determined by the condition that the 90-95 average should equal the FAO figure for that<br />

period.<br />

(c) the linear trend 1980-1990 was determined by the condition that the 80-90 average should equal the FAO figure for that<br />

period<br />

(d) for the period 70-80 we assumed the same annual figure as determined for 1980 in (c).<br />

(e) for years where this procedure resulted in negative values, the figure has been set to zero.<br />
