Methodology for estimating biomass energy potential and its application to Colombia

Miguel Angel Gonzalez-Salazar, +6 more
- 31 Dec 2014 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a bottom-up resource-focused approach with statistical analysis that uses a Monte Carlo algorithm to stochastically estimate the theoretical and the technical biomass energy potential is presented.

Updated and harmonised greenhouse gas emissions for crop inventories

Thomas Nemecek, +2 more
- 18 Oct 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the biomass production inventories in the ecoinvent database were revised to take into account these developments, which is a key criterion in the environmental assessment of biofuels.

ECOALIM: A Dataset of Environmental Impacts of Feed Ingredients Used in French Animal Production.

Aurélie Wilfart, +5 more
- 08 Dec 2016 - 
TL;DR: The ECOALIM dataset can be used by feed manufacturers and LCA practitioners to investigate formulation of low-impact feeds and also provides data for environmental evaluation of feeds and animal production systems.

Environmental life cycle assessment of biodiesel produced with palm oil from Colombia

Érica Geraldes Castanheira, +1 more
- 01 Apr 2017 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an environmental life cycle assessment (LCA) of biodiesel produced in Portugal from palm oil (PO) imported from Colombia, addressing the direct effects of land-use change (LUC), different fertilization schemes, and biogas management options at the extraction mill.

Methodological approach towards sustainability by integration of environmental impact in production system models through life cycle analysis: Application to the Rioja wine sector

Emilio Jiménez, +4 more
TL;DR: The integration of life cycle analysis within the production system models as a tool for decision making (whether at the strategic, tactical or operational levels) attending not only economic and technical criteria but also the environmental impact is proposed.

Our Ecological Footprint: reducing human impact on the earth - eScholarship

Gene Bazan
- 01 Nov 1997 - 
TL;DR: Wackernagel and Rees as mentioned in this paper presented an analysis of the aggregate land area required for a given population to exist in a sustainable manner, and showed that at 11 acres per person, the U.S. has the highest per capita footprint.

IMPACT 2002+: A new life cycle impact assessment methodology

Olivier Jolliet, +6 more
- 01 Jan 2003 - 
TL;DR: The IMPACT 2002+ method as mentioned in this paper proposes a feasible implementation of a combined midpoint/damage approach, linking all types of life cycle inventory results (elementary flows and other interventions) via 14 midpoint categories to four damage categories.

Good practice guidance and uncertainty management in national greenhouse gas inventories

J. Penman, +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a good practice guideline for the estimation of methane emissions from solid waste disposal for national greenhouse gas inventories, and discuss the emission estimation methods given in the IPCC 1996 Revised Guidelines.

N2O and NO emission from agricultural fields and soils under natural vegetation: summarizing available measurement data and modeling of global annual emissions

Elke Stehfest, +1 more
- 12 Jul 2006 - 
TL;DR: The number of published N2O and NO emissions measurements is increasing steadily, providing additional information about driving factors of these emissions and allowing an improvement of statistical N-emission models as mentioned in this paper.
