co2eq plots have different signs #51

Closed aldivi closed 6 years ago

aldivi commented 6 years ago

unless specified as a gain (which signifies positive is into the variable of interest), the co2eq units should be negative into the land and positive into the atmosphere totalnonburn and totalwood appear to incorrect signs

aldivi commented 6 years ago

wood is positive because it includes only losses from landfill- this is fine because wood gains are only transfers from land to wood, and are not deducted from eco gain total non-burned includes eco, so is more than emissions, and that is why it is negative - not sure whether this should be emissions only, or should include eco

Leaving these as is. The process groups (manage, lcc, wildfire, eco) are output separately, and the "Total" outputs are by source (wood, nonburn, wildfire+managed(incl. lcc) fire, energy) and these total sources should add up to the total. and there is as total burn which is all wildfire+energy+managed/lcc fire.
