Objective develop analytical tools to assess economic and environmental effects of enhancing carbon sink and greenhouse gas abatement measures on agricultural and forest lands Sixth Framework Programme
Basic Questions about GHG Abatement Measures • • • Where? How? By which technology? At what cost? When? How good? Sixth Framework Programme
INSEA-toolbox Global Carbon Cycle Link to Energy Models Sequestered carbon Land Use/cover Non C-GHGs Biomass Productivity 2050 2030 Ancillary Cost / Technology data 2000 Biomass crops Food Crops Agricultural Market Model Geography of Supply Sixth Framework Programme
Models developed / used within the INSEA framework Forest Modeling: IIASA Carbon Sink Model (P. C. Benitez, M. Obersteiner) Tsu. Bi. Mo (mod. ) (G. Alexandrov, O. Franklin, D. Rokityanskiy) DIMA (D. Rokityanskiy) PICUS (M. Lexer, R. Seidl) EU-FASOM/Combined agricultural and forestry modeling (U. Schneider) Agricultural Modeling: EPIC Environmental Policy Integrated Climate(E. Schmid) AGRIPOL/Engineering Cost Model (B. Dorin) EU-FASOM/Combined agricultural and forestry modeling (U. Schneider) INRA and AROPAJ/EFEM (DNDC), The Baden-Wuerttemberg case study (D. Blank, S. De Cara, P. A. Jayet) Sixth Framework Programme
Problems to solve • integrate socioeconomic & biophysical data, spatial & tabular information • create an ecosystem-based GIS • match different scales • maintain thematic and spatial consistency • interface with models • common meta database Sixth Framework Programme
What is studied? • Inventory data needs • Sort needs: – Common data – Unique data • Classify data – Availability – Scale – Variables – Unit • Set up priority and time Sixth Framework Programme
