Data from: Chapter 3: Cropland Agriculture. U.S. Agriculture and Forestry Greenhouse Gas Inventory: 1990-2018
<p>The primary greenhouse gas (GHG) sources for agriculture are nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from cropped and grazed soils, methane (CH4) emissions from ruminant livestock production and rice cultivation, and CH4 and N2O emissions from managed livestock waste. The management of cropped, grazed, and forestland has helped offset GHG emissions by promoting the biological uptake of carbon dioxide (CO2) through the incorporation of carbon into biomass, wood products, and soils, yielding a U.S. net emissions of 5,903 MMT CO2 eq (million metric tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalents). Net emissions equate to total greenhouse gas emissions minus CO2 sequestration in growing forests, wood products, and soils.</p> <p>The report 'U.S. Agriculture and Forestry Greenhouse Gas Inventory: 1990-2018' serves to estimate U.S. GHG emissions for the agricultural sector, to quantify uncertainty in emission estimates, and to estimate the potential of agriculture to mitigate U.S. GHG emissions.</p> <p>This dataset contains tabulated data from the figures and tables presented in Chapter 3, Cropland Agriculture, of the report. Data are presented for Cropland Soils (N2O), Rice Cultivation + Residue Burning (CH4 + N2O), and Agricultural Soil Carbon and Amendments (CO2). Please refer to the report for full descriptions of and notes on the data. </p><div><br>Resources in this dataset:</div><br><ul><li><p>Resource Title: Maps 3-1 through 3-5e.</p> <p>File Name: Map3_1_through_3_5e.xlsx</p><p>Resource Description: All maps in Chapter 3 contain data that is based on fine-scaled variation at field scale that is provided in the map figure, but is not feasible to insert into the spreadsheet.</p></li><br><li><p>Resource Title: Chapter 3 Appendix Tables.</p> <p>File Name: Ch3_Appendix_Tables.xlsx</p><p>Resource Description: Chapter 3 includes 12 appendix tables, that include data on, inter alia, state level annual nitrogen inputs to cropland soil, state level nitrous oxide emissions from cropland agriculture, and state level soil organic carbon change from cropland agriculture in 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, and 2013-2015.</p></li><br><li><p>Resource Title: Table 3-1.</p> <p>File Name: Table3_1.csv</p><p>Resource Description: Estimates and Uncertainties for Cropland Greenhouse Gas Emissions, 2018.
