Weekly/diurnal emissions can be modeled by multiplying the TIMES temporal scaling factors developed by Dr. Ray Nassar at Environment Canada and colleagues, to monthly emission fields (Temporal Improvements for Modeling Emissions by Scaling, Nassar et al. 2013). The scaling factor is defined on a 0.25 x 0.25 degree. The data can be downloaded from the web site of Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
For the past ODIAC data products (after 2 years from the release), only metadata are provided excepting several significant versions (e.g. ones used in the milestone ODIAC papers).
