Sammendrag:

The Paris Agreement requires accurate accounting of greenhouse gases (GHGs) by all countries. Complementary to bottom-up emission inventories, global, regional and national GHG emissions can be estimated using atmospheric measurements and atmospheric models (the \"top-down\" approach). This report provides an overview of current capabilities, potential, and further perspectives to use the \"top-down\" approach to evaluate and improve estimates of greenhouse gas emissions in support of the Paris Agreement.
