UNH GRAD STUDENT: Heavy truck CO2 emissions per ton-mile?

October 17, 2007 @ 9:42 am


Q.		Hi I am a GRAD student at UNH working on research in reducing freight CO2 emissions (truck & rail) in New England. We have estimated the CO2 emissions per ton-mile? We have estimated the CO2 per ton-mile but need a reference to validate and to back up. Any suggestion? Thank you Elizabeth Mello emello@unh.edu WE are using the US Census Commodity Flow Survey with the latest data 2002. We cannot find state data after that for truck & rail and may need to wait until Dec 08 for the next survey.
