Due to a data error, SO2 emissions in the US are overestimated in all current data releases from 1961 to 1969. The overestimate averages 22% over this period. The previous and corrected time series are shown in the Known Issues section of the wiki. This difference, avenged over the decade, is likely somewhat larger than the uncertainty in emissions over that time scale.
