The Vulcan version 3.0 dataset estimates carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel combustion (FFCO<sub>2<\/sub>) for the entire United States at a 1 km, hourly resolution from 2010 to 2015 along with emissions sources. Vulcan estimates FFCO<sub>2<\/sub> emissions of 1,589.9 TgC in 2011. Vehicles and commercial\/residential buildings contribute contribute a higher percentage of FFCO<sub>2<\/sub> emissions in densely populated states. Meanwhile, less densely populated states had more of their emissions coming from electricity generation and industrial activity. These less densely populated states also had higher per capita emissions.
