This technical guide is an addendum to the CORINE Land Cover Technical Guide, published by the European Commission within the frame of the CORINE Programme (CEC, 1994).This addendum 2000 was prepared by the European Topic Centre on Land Cover and Phare Topic Link on Land Cover to support the...

The Land Cover Annual Topic Update 1999 provides an overview of progress made in 1999 on monitoring, data collection, information, assessement and reporting on land cover related environmental issues. Special attention is given to the plans for updating the CORINE land cover (CLC) database and...

The present report focuses on the state of development of spatial and territorial indicators based on land cover as contribution to the environmental indicator based reporting. The report summarises the joint efforts during 1999-2000 of the European Topic Centre on Land Cover (ETC/LC) and the...

Data on emissions of air pollutants in the European Community from 1990-2000 are presented in this report. The emissions data cover acidifying pollutants, ozone precursor substances and other air pollutants: SOx (sulphur oxides), NOX (nitrogen oxides), NH3 (ammonia), NMVOCs (non-methane volatile...

This report presents data for the European Community and its Member States for 1990-1999 on emissions of acidifying pollutants, ozone precursor substances and other air pollutants: SOX (sulphur oxides), NOX (nitrogen oxides), NH3 (ammonia), NMVOCs (non-methane volatile organic compounds), CO...

This report presents an inventory of existing scenarios studies relevant for Europe in the context of sustainable development, including European and global models. It also provides a useful review of a selected number of scenarios and pinpoints their strengths and weaknesses.

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the European Union have increased for the second consecutive year, moving the EU further away from meeting its commitment to achieve a substantial emissions cut by the 2008-2012 period.

An analysis of trends in emissions of the main air pollutants in EU Member States and Candidate Counties between 1990 and 1999 is presented in this report. Emissions data are shown and analysed by country and economic sector. They are also compared with agreed international emission ceilings and...

This report explores the potential ancillary benefits for air pollution - in terms of reductions in pollutant emissions and changes in control costs and environmental impacts - resulting from different ways of implementing the Kyoto climate change protocol in Europe. It is based on a comparison...

This report is the annual European Community CLRTAP emission inventory presenting the European Community air pollution data from the years 1990 to 2003. The report provides an overview of emission trends and data availability for EU-25; NFR Tables IV 1A are provided for EU-15 only. Due to data...
