Documentation

Description:
Figure TS.3 legend: Panel a shows historic annual anthropogenic CO2 emissions (GtCO2 yr-1 ) by fuel type and process. Panel b shows historic cumulative anthropogenic CO2 emissions for the periods 1850-1989, 1990-2009, and 2010-2019 as well as remaining future carbon budgets as of 1 January 2020 to limit warming to 1.5°C and 2°C at the 67th percentile of the transient climate response to cumulative CO2 emissions. The whiskers indicate a budget uncertainty of ±220 GtCO2-eq for each budget and the aggregate uncertainty range at one standard deviation for historical cumulative CO2 emissions, consistent with Working Group I. {Figure 2.7}

Provenance

Source:
Historical emissions data from Friedlingstein et al. (2020) and carbon budgets from Canadell et al. (2021). (See references). Data processing or treatment: Panel a: • We convert the original data from Friedlingstein et al. (2020) into GtCO2 from GtC by multiplying all values by 44/12 Panel b: • For uncertainty ranges in historical cumulative CO2 emissions, we assume an uncertainty of 0.05 for fossil fuel and industry CO2. For LULUCF CO2 emissions, we use the standard deviation of an ensemble of 17 dynamic global vegetation models, as described in Friedlingstein et al. 2020. To combine these uncertainties, we take the square root of the sum of the squared uncertainties. • For uncertainty ranges in future carbon budgets, we use the budget uncertainty of +/-220 GtCO2 described in Canadell et al. 2021.
Purpose:
Data used by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) authors and supplied for archiving to MetadataWorks Ltd by the Technical Support Unit (TSU) for IPCC Working Group III (WG III).
