Spanish term or phrase: indexadas al año base
Hi,

This appears in a powerpoint presentation about the evolution of greenhouse gas emissions in Spain:

Evolución sectorial de las emisiones ***indexadas al año base***.

I'm having trouble translating ***indexadas al año base***.

Evolution of emissions ______ by sector.

All suggestions are welcome.

Thanks,

Jack

Kyoto_Protocol_base_year_for_measuring_greenhouse_gas_emission_cuts_against
One of the key issues in the negotiation of a successor agreement to the Kyoto Protocol is the selection of the base year for measuring greenhouse gas emission cuts against. Under the 1997 Kyoto Protocol, the base year was 1990. However, some national governments are lobbying for changing the base year or incorporating other base years that are more favourable to their emissions profile.
