Background and Objectives
6
• India is currently thought to have the second largest CH4 emissions of any
country, but emissions have not been quantified from the top-down using
atmospheric observations from within the country and a high-resolution
modelling approach.
• We used a combination of satellite, aircraft and surface observations
between 2010 and 2015 to quantify CH4 emissions from India and to
investigate sources of discrepancies between the top-down derived emissions
and two inventories, EDGAR2010 (Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric
Research v4.2 FT 2010) and India’s BUR (First Biennial Update Report to its
National Communications) to UNFCCC

Comparison of India’s top-down CH4 emissions and seasonal cycle with bottom-up inventories. a Indian CH4 emissions (as Tg yr−1) for the prior inventories (orange, solid line) and for the top-down estimated here (dark blue line). The prior was comprised by EDGAR2010 (excluding rice), Yan et al. rice and GFED v3.1 biomass burning. For comparison, the dashed orange line corresponds to EDGAR2010 (including rice) and GFED. The turquoise line and shading indicates a 12-month running mean of the top-down emissions (uncertainties assuming full correlation between months). The black line and grey shading correspond to 2010 emissions submitted to the UNFCCC (BUR) and uncertainties (based on percentage uncertainties for the year 2000, the last year for which uncertainties were published: 50% enteric fermentation, 8% rice, 125% fossil fuel, 150% waste). b Average prior (orange) and top-down (blue) seasonal cycle. In all panels, shading corresponds to 5th–95th percentile uncertainties. The monsoon season is highlighted in pink bars

•The atmospheric CO2 budget estimated from both the top-down and bottom-up approaches suffers
from large uncertainty (Patra et a., 2013). One of the primary reasons of this uncertainty is the lack of
monitoring of CO2 at high temporal and spatial resolution •Especially monitoring the CO2 variability over an urban station which is the hot spots of
anthropogenic emission is crucial •Understanding the CO2 variability at a finer temporal scale like hourly variation can add up to the
understanding of the sudden emission episodes from a region and also transport driven mixing

Major conclusions
31
• These findings demonstrate the need for more robust bottom-up accounting, using
country-specific data and more advanced accounting methodologies. They also
highlight the value of top-down evaluations of emissions inventories for regions of the
world that are critical for global climate and policy, but like India, are under-studied
and are therefore poorly quantified contributors to climate change.
• We estimate average emissions over the period 2010–2015 to be 22.0 (19.6–24.3)
Tg yr−1. These emissions are consistent with India’s reports to the United Nations
Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), but are ~ 30% smaller than
the most widely used global CH4 inventory, EDGAR and ~ 40% smaller than
previous atmospheric inversion studies over India14. We also find that annual
emissions did not change significantly between 2010 and 2015 (0.2 ± 0.7 Tg yr−1),
suggesting that the major CH4 sources, including ruminants, rice paddies, waste
and fossil fuels, did not vary appreciably during this period.
