While a full year emission factor is typically used, in some circumstances the animal category may be defined for a shorter period (e.g., for the wet season of the year or for a 150-day feedlot feeding period). In this case, the emission factor would be estimated for the specific period (e.g., the wet season) and the 365 days would be replaced by the number of days in the period. The definition of the period to which the emission factor applies is described in Section 10.2.
