摘要: ABSTRACTWe explore options to replicate the EXIOBASE2 multi-region input–output (MRIO) database in Virtual IELab cloud-computing laboratory environment. Whereas is constructed using a multi-process reconciliation procedure, we present an alternative compilation technique that uses EXIOBASE2's pre-processed data and final tables reconciling MRIO with conflicting raw information. This approach skips labour-intensive step of detailing harmonising country tables. Adherence metrics reveal EXIOBASE2-based table be considerably less balanced than original but stronger adherence other constraints data. However, these are not comparable statistics due distinctive implementation constraint sets two platforms. IELab's main value-added its flexibility tailoring MRIOs beyond recipe. Finally, global carbon, water material footprints shown comparable...
