Inventory Report.
    emission factor for nitrous oxide, in tonnes of N2O per tonne of element in fuel burnt, from forest biomass burning in the National Inventory Report.
    elemental to molecular mass conversion factor for nitrous oxide in the National Inventory Report.
=   global warming potential of nitrous oxide as specified in the NGER Regulations.

 =  nitrogen to carbon mass ratio in the National Inventory Report.

Note The values in the right hand column of Table D, which correspond to the parameters in the left hand column, are from section 7.14 in Volume 2 of the National Inventory Report 2012. Table D is for information only, as the values may be updated in subsequent National Inventory Reports.

 (5) The total emissions from the carbon stock burnt in the reporting period in which the fire occurred must be calculated using the following equation:
  Equation 34

  Where:
=   the net greenhouse gas emissions, in tonnes CO2-e, resulting from fire in reporting period.
    the emissions from methane (CH4), in tonnes CO2-e per hectare, due to fire in land parcel  in reporting period —from Equation 32.
    the emissions from nitrous oxide (N2O), in tonnes CO2-e per hectare, due to fire in land parcel  in reporting period —from Equation 33.
    aboveground biomass stock, in tonnes C per hectare, in the project scenario but absent in the baseline assumed to be combusted during a fire event for land parcel , in current reporting period .
    the area, in hectares, of land parcel affected by natural disturbance  in reporting period —from Equation 25.

Note The factor  represents the ratio of molecular weights of carbon dioxide to carbon.
