NOx emission decline in 2020 as compared to the business-as-usual scenario
Animation of the absolute cumulative NOx emission decline in 2020 as compared to the business-as-usual scenario, still 10 April 2020. Applying artificial intelligence, the study provides a daily sectoral and spatial emissions breakdown as well as information on country-level contributions and different pollutants..
