Can Numerical Models Estimate Indirect Land-use Change?
Brunelle, Thierry; Dumas, Patrice - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2012
Motivated by the conclusions from various modelling studies, modifications to the bioenergy sector regulations are under way in Europe and in the USA to account for emissions from indirect land-use change (ILUC). Despite their influence on the policy-making, evaluations of the capacity of...
