Pest risk assessment of Atropellis spp. for the EU territory. [PDF]
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Plant Health (PLH) Panel performed a risk assessment for Atropellis spp. in the EU focusing on the risk of entry, the host range and the potential impacts. Atropellis is a fungal pathogen of several Pinus spp. in North America.

The life cycle carbon balance of selective logging in tropical forests of Costa Rica
Abstract The effect of logging on atmospheric carbon concentrations remains highly contested, especially in the tropics where it is associated to forest degradation. To contribute to this discussion, we estimated the carbon balance from logging natural tropical forests in Costa Rica through a life cycle accounting approach.

Carbon storage and CO2 dynamics from wood products harvested in Brazil during 1900–2016
How relevant is the role of CO2 from harvested wood products (HWPs) for the Brazilian GHG emission balance? The C stocks and CO2 emissions and removals from the HWPs in Brazil during 1900–2016 were evaluated using three methodological approaches: stock ...

Carbon Credits Through Wood Use: Revisiting the Maximum Potential and Sensitivity to Key Assumptions
We investigated how large and uncertain avoided fossil‐based emissions and net sequestration of carbon into the technosphere (TCCs = technosphere carbon credits) of wood use per carbon harvested are. The mean value of TCCs of wood use were between 0.2 and 0.5 tC/tC with an uncertainty range from 0.1 to 0.8 tC/tC, depending on the scenario.

Abstract A systemic understanding of the use of wood resources is required to defossilize society and promote bio‐based developments. This study provides a novel approach to represent a comprehensive material flow analysis (MFA) spanning the entire wood value chain; encompassing wood harvest to products, use in society, collection, reuse, recycle ...

Summary Construction material plays an increasingly important role in the environmental impacts of buildings. In order to investigate impacts of materials on a building level, we present a bottom‐up building stock model that uses three‐dimensional and geo‐referenced building data to determine volumetric information of material stocks in Swiss ...
