The first function of the package is m1_emissions_rescale. It re-scales emissions from GCAM regions to TM5-FASST regions which is the purpose of Module 1.

The function processes emissions outputs from GCAM to make them match with the regional disaggregation of TM5-FASST. Concretely, GCAM emissions are downscaled to country level, using a static downscaling approach based on the pollutant-specific country-level emissions in year 2000 reported in the RCP database. This approach is planned to be revised in the future, for example with the implementation of a dynamic GDP-based downscaling procedure linked with the scenario-specific socioeconomic data in GCAM.

Apart from the regional adjustments, this function makes some additional pollutant-related changes such as the transformation of organic carbon into organic matter.

Inputs:

NonCO2 emissions by sector: By default, they will be automatically queried from the GCAM-database
NonCO2 emissions from international aviation and international shipping: By default, queried from the GCAM database.
Mapping of pollutants that are reported by GCAM to more aggregated categories which are input in TM5-FASST (my_pol)
Mapping of GCAM regions to countries and ISO3 codes for downscaling GCAM results to country-level (GCAM_Reg_Adj)
Mapping of TM5-FASST regions to ISO3 country codes for re-grouping country-level downscaled emissions (fasst_reg)
Shares to distribute emissions of different species between Russia Eastern (RUE) and Western (RUS) (adj_rus)

Outputs:

The function produces re-scaled emissions of the main pollutants for each period and TM5-FASST region. If saveOutput is set to TRUE, the function writes the following csv files in the output/m1 sub-directory: [scenario]_[year].csv

In addition, by setting map to TRUE, the function generates air pollutant emission maps by year and specie, using the rmap package documented in the following page. The function also generates animations and individual figures for each pollutant by modifying the mapIndivPoland anim parameters.

The outputs from this module generated with the function m1_emissions_rescale are going to read by the set of functions in Module 2, which calculate PM2.5 and O3 average concentration levels based on these emission sets.
