TLDR
In this article, the potential goal conflict between sustainable forests and reduced climate impact was analyzed by using a forest sector model that includes the suppliers and major users of roundwood, based on a data set that spans 40 years, showing that all the own price elasticities have the expected signs.About:

Economic Evaluation of Large-Scale Biorefinery Deployment: A Framework Integrating Dynamic Biomass Market and Techno-Economic Models
Jonas Zetterholm,Elina Bryngemark,Johan Ahlström,Patrik Söderholm,Simon Harvey,Elisabeth Wetterlund +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a conceptual interdisciplinary framework for evaluating early-stage biorefinery concepts with high economic performance is presented and empirically demonstrated empirically through a case study of a sawmill-integrated biOREfinery producing liquefied biomethane from forestry and forest industry residues, where the competition for biomass across sectors, assuming exogenous end-use product demand, and incorporating various geographical and technical constraints are considered.

Is forest carbon sequestration at the expense of bioenergy and forest products cost-efficient in EU climate policy to 2050?
TL;DR: In this paper, a dynamic cost minimisation model is used to find the optimal combination of carbon abatement strategies to meet annual emissions targets between 2010 and 2050 in a cost-efficient manner.

Non-market forest ecosystem services and decision support in Nordic countries
TL;DR: This article conducted a systematic review of published literature in the Nordic countries (Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland) on the integration of non-market forest ecosystem services into decision-making.

Characterization and explanation of the sustainability of the European wood manufacturing industries: A quantitative approach
TL;DR: A ranking of the European countries analyzed in terms of sustainability is established by taking the composite indexes of sustainability as endogenous variables and a tentative set of economic, environmental and social variables as explanatory variables.

A Guide to Econometrics
TL;DR: The fourth edition of "A Guide to Econometrics" provides an overview of the subject and an intuitive feel for its concepts and techniques without the notation and technical detail often characteristic of econometric textbooks.
2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories
TL;DR: The Task Force on National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (TFI) as mentioned in this paper was established by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) at its 14th session (October 1998), to oversee the national greenhouse gas inventory (NGGIP) program.

Forest Management, Conservation, and Global Timber Markets
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a global timber market model which captures how timber supply reacts to future predicted increases in the demand for timber, showing that higher future demand is expected to increase prices, increase investments in regeneration, increase establishment of plantations, and expand output.

Drivers behind the development of forest energy in Sweden
TL;DR: The use of forest fuels has more than doubled in Sweden over the last 25-30 years as discussed by the authors and almost a fifth of the utilized energy is now based on forest biomass, while real prices of bioenergy have decreased to less than a third of what they were 25 years ago.
