reportFireEmissions.R

reads land cover data and deforestation data to produce future estimates of fire emissions based on extrapolating GFED data from 2003-2016

Usage

reportFireEmissions(gdx, level = "reg")

Arguments

gdx

GDX file

level

Level of regional aggregation; "reg" (regional), "glo" (global), "regglo" (regional and global)

Value

emissions as MAgPIE object (unit: Mt X/yr, plus cumulative Mt X/yr)
