Details

Units for G, g, e, and ef depend on whether the data is requested in MER or PPP dollars: For MER, dollars are constant 2015 U.S. dollars. For PPP, dollars are constant 2017 international dollars.

     _P_ and MER values for GDP and related quantities are available
     from 1960 onward.

PPP values for GDP and related quantities are only available from 1990 onward.

Energy-related values (_E_, _F_, and derived quantities) are available from 1965 onward.

Note that emissions (_F_, _f_, and _ef_) are reported as millions of metric tons of carbon dioxide, not carbon.
