| Abstract: | Carbon dioxide is generally considered the culprit greenhouse gas. This study will help prepare the framework for a carbon dioxide emission database for Minna. This study concerned household or static sources that were considered significant sources of carbon dioxide over any 24-hour cycle. Stations of interest were appropriately geo-referenced and marked in the conventional way. The stations were re-visited with the carbon dioxide level meter whence information about the outdoor levels of carbon dioxide was logged progressively from one point to the next. The field dataset indicates ambient carbon dioxide levels above the 350ppm threshold selected for this study. By use of the Geographic Information System (GIS), a carbon dioxide emission layer map for Minna was created. The resulting interactive GIS-enabled layer map is a good enough indicator of the major greenhouse gas emission trend across Minna town. |
