Dataset for greenhouse gas modelling in diesel dependent communities transitioning to bioenergy

Bioenergy_Modelling_DatasetThis file contains GHG emissions factors, forest growth parameters, and biomass decomposition parameters used in the greenhouse gas (GHG) modelling performed in Buss et al. 2022. A metadata tab in the file describes all parameters included in the data file, their sources, as well as the naming convention for scenarios. The data file includes a total of 72 scenarios. Life_Cycle_Analysis_(LCA) _ScriptThis file contains the R code for the GHG model. The code guides users through a seven-step life cycle analyses designed to aid in the development of biomass and reference fossil fuel scenarios, and calculate the quantity and timing of GHG benefits. It also includes a description of model parameters and outputs. Model_Output_Summary_TableThis file contains a summary of a small subset of model outputs for all 72 scenarios included in the Bioenergy_Modelling_Data file. Model outputs included in this file are carbon parity times and GHG emissions at 25, 50, and 100 years.
