VERIFY PROJECT
VERIFYING GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS
VERIFY is a Research and Innovation project funded by the European Commission under the H2020 programme.
VERIFY develops a system to estimate greenhouse gas emissions to support countries’ emission reporting to the UN Climate Change Convention Secretariat. The emissions are estimated based on land, ocean and atmospheric observations. The project focuses on the three major greenhouse gases responsible for global warming: carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O).
About the project
As the negative impacts of rising global temperatures become increasingly evident, national governments, regional authorities and private stakeholders are enhancing efforts to curb the emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) responsible for global warming.
Approach
The main concept of VERIFY is to provide observation-based estimates of anthropogenic and natural GHG emissions and sinks as well as associated uncertainties.
Products
VERIFY develops a system to estimate greenhouse gas emissions to support countries’ emission reporting to the UN Climate Change Convention Secretariat.
