This dataset contains outputs from the FLEXPART Lagrangian particle dispersion model v10 together with the Lund University Modular Inversion Algorithm (LUMIA). FLEXPART were driven by ERA5 reanalysis meteorology. Different prior black carbon (BC) emissions were used in the inversions as part of the European BC emission uncertainty assessment. The FLEXPART-LUMIA setup was used to first produce monthly posterior BC emission estimates over Europe for year 2011 and 2021 at a spatial (lat,lon) resolution of 0.25 degree x 0.25 degree. In a second step, source specific scaling factors for each monthly emission grid point were extracted and applied to other co-emitted combustion generated, short lived climate forcers such as OC, NOx, SO2, NMVOC and CO. Note that this approach can only separate sectors if they are clearly separated in space and time, which is not always the case. Therefore, there are large uncertainties in the resulting emission estimates. For details, see A. Thomasson et al. (2026).
