Abstract
This note provides a comparison of GHG emission estimates obtained using national methodologies and the current IPCC default methodologies based on submissions from five Parties (Austria, New Zealand, Norway, Switzerland and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland) and one international programme (IPCC-OECD-IEA Programme for
National Greenhouse Gas Inventories). The paper analyses the differences in annual inventories, as well as differences in the trend over the period 1990 to 1996, resulting from the use of different methodologies
