Short summary
We present a low-lag dataset of monthly CO2 emissions from fossil fuel consumption and industrial processes in Japan, derived directly from official statistical data. The monthly dataset can be used to estimate the annual emissions a year ahead of the official estimates submitted to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Such monthly emissions estimates will provide further opportunities for understanding in a timely manner the reasons behind emissions changes, leading to targeted policy changes for climate mitigation.
