MODELING AGRICULTURE AND LAND USE IN AN INTEGRATED ASSESSMENT FRAMEWORK

摘要: The Agriculture and Land Use (AgLU) model is a top-downeconomic with just enough structure to simulate globalland-use change the resulting carbon emissions over one century.These simulations are done without policy representedby positive price. Increases in price createincentives for production of commercial biomass that affect thedistribution other land types and, therefore, emissionsfrom land-use change. Commercial provides link betweenthe agricultural energy systems. Integrated Assessmentof Climate Protection Strategies (ICLIPS) core uses AgLUto provide estimates from changeas component total greenhouse gas emissions. Each majorland-use type assigned an average density used calculatea stock; arecalculated as stock between time periods.Significant presenteven reference scenario. An aggressive ICLIPS mitigationscenario results upto 800 million metric tons per year above AgLU referencescenario.
