-[!-- +=====Discussion of emission trends=====
-The tier1 emission factors used here have been derived within a literature study in 2006. During this study, average amounts of particulate wear per km and for different types of brakes or tyres ( = EF<sub>PM - specific<sub>) were derived from which annual amounts of PM emissions can be estimated  as follows: +
- +
-[[math]] +
-\begin{gather} +
-EM(PM)_\text{ annual, type of vehicle}  =  EF(PM)_\text{ specific, per km}  \cdot  Mileage_\text{ annual, type of vehicle}  +

-Based on average contents of heavy metals in tyres and brakes per gram of emitted particulate matter (also derived during the literature study), emission factors for HM and PAHs were estimated as follows: +
- +
-[[math]] +
-\begin{gather} +
-EF(HM)_\text{ per km, type of vehicle}  =  EM(PM)_\text{ per km, type of vehicle}  \cdot  ØHM-content_\text{ type of brake or tyre}  +

-From these PM-based emission factors, emission estimates for HM and PAHs are estimated as follows: +
- +
-[[math]] +
-\begin{gather} +
-EM(HM)_\text{ annual, type of vehicle}  =  EF(HM)_\text{ per km, type of vehicle}  \cdot  Mileage_\text{ annual, type of vehicle} +
-\end{gather} +
-[[/math]] +
- +
-In contrast to passenger cars, LDVs and HDVs, as there are no aggregate HM or PAH contents available for motorized two-wheelers as a whole but for mopeds and motorcycels separately, and as estimates have to be provided as sum for all motorized two-wheelers (MTWs) within the NFR tables, the emission factors applied here represent annual implied values.  +
-These IEFs display weighted values calculated from the named specific tier1 EFs for mopeds and motorcycles and the annual mileages for both kind of motorized two-wheelers. +
- +
-[[math]] +
-\begin{gather} +
-IEF_\text{ annual, MTWs}  =  (EF_\text{ mopeds}  \cdot  Mileage_\text{ annual, mopeds}  +  EF_\text{ motorcycles}  \cdot  Mileage_\text{ annual, motorcycles}) /  Mileage_\text{ annual, mopeds + motorcycles} +
-\end{gather} +
-[[/math]] +
- +
-Here, as the //mopeds : motorcycles// mileage ratio changes annually, the IEFs change on an annual basis, too. (As these changes occur in the fourth decimal place or later, they are not diplsayed in the overview tables below.) +
