Calculate manure emissions (CH4 + N2O).

Source: R/livestock_emissions.R
calculate_manure_emissions.Rd

Wrapper that selects Tier 1 or 2 for manure CH4 and computes N2O (Tier 2 only; skipped for Tier 1).

Usage

calculate_manure_emissions(data, tier = NULL)

Arguments

data

Dataframe with species, heads. For Tier 2, also needs cohort, weight, and diet_quality. For Tier 1, iso3 is used to select regional emission factors.

tier

Integer 1 or 2. If NULL (default), auto-selects based on data completeness.

Value

Dataframe with all input columns preserved, plus:

  • method_manure_ch4: tracking label.

  • Tier 1: manure_ef_kgch4, manure_ch4_tier1.

  • Tier 2: volatile_solids, methane_potential, weighted_mcf, manure_ch4_per_head, manure_ch4_tier2.

  • N2O (Tier 2 only): method_manure_n2o, n_excretion, manure_n2o_direct, manure_n2o_indirect, manure_n2o_total.
