Journal ArticleDOI
Placing Brazil's heavy acid oils on international markets
TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify the international market niches of Brazil's heavy acid oils and assess their importance for certain oil-producing regions such as Brazil, Venezuela, West Africa, the North Sea and China.
Journal ArticleDOI
Georeferenced operating-efficiency solar potential maps with local weather conditions - An application to Brazil
Tassio Simioni,Roberto Schaeffer +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed an approach that accounts for temperature when determining solar energy potentials in large territories, using Brazil as a case study given its continental size, amplitude of meteorological conditions and high levels of solar irradiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tomoko Hasegawa,Tomoko Hasegawa,Shinichiro Fujimori,Shinichiro Fujimori,Shinichiro Fujimori,Stefan Frank,Florian Humpenöder,Christoph Bertram,Jacques Després,Laurent Drouet,Johannes Emmerling,Mykola Gusti,Mykola Gusti,Mathijs Harmsen,Mathijs Harmsen,Kimon Keramidas,Yuki Ochi,Ken Oshiro,Pedro Rochedo,Bas van Ruijven,Anique-Marie Cabardos,Andre Deppermann,Florian Fosse,Petr Havlik,Volker Krey,Alexander Popp,Roberto Schaeffer,Detlef P. van Vuuren,Detlef P. van Vuuren,Keywan Riahi,Keywan Riahi +30 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify the implications for land-use and food systems of scenarios that do not depend on land-based carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies and find that early climate action has multiple benefits and trade-offs, and avoids the need for drastic (mitigationinduced) shifts in land use in the long term.
Journal ArticleDOI
Policies for improving the efficiency of the Brazilian light-duty vehicle fleet and their implications for fuel use, greenhouse gas emissions and land use
TL;DR: In this paper, the ADVISOR (Advanced Vehicle Simulator) software was used to evaluate vehicle efficiency and to estimate the possible levels of GHG emissions and area planted with sugarcane in 2030 in Brazil.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impacts of a warmer world on space cooling demand in Brazilian households
Paula Bezerra,Fábio Neves da Silva,Talita Cruz,Malcolm Mistry,Eveline Vasquez-Arroyo,Leticia Magalar,Enrica De Cian,André F.P. Lucena,Roberto Schaeffer +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the impacts of climate change on Cooling Degree Days computed with wet-bulb temperature (CDDwb) and household space cooling demand in Brazil were compared under three specific warming levels (SWLs) scenarios (1.5°C, 2°C and 4°C) to a baseline with historically observed meteorological parameters.
