Climate volatility deepens poverty vulnerability in developing countries (2009, methodology): “We introduce factor market segmentation which is important in countries where the rural sector remains a dominant source of poverty (Keeney and Hertel 2005), and disaggregate land endowments by AEZ (Hertel et al 2009b).”
Counting only the hits? The risk of underestimating the costs of stringent climate policy (2010, background): “Besides the feasibility of safely storing such a large volume of CO2, this strategy would require a large, sustained supply of biomass, with potential consequences on land use and food supply (Hertel et al. 2009; Wise et al. 2009).”
Biofuels for all? Understanding the Global Impacts of Multinational Mandates (2008, methodology): “In order to accurately depict the global competition for land between food and fuel, we augment the model with a land use module, nick-named GTAP-AEZ – where the AEZ stands for Agro-Ecological Zones (Hertel et al., 2008).”
Integrating Bioenergy into Computable General Equilibrium Models – A Survey (2010, background): “The model then projects the period 2006-2015 with biofuel support policies in the EU and the US in place just as in the policy scenario of Hertel et al. (2008). The results of the two studies are consequently compared in order to asses the influence of including by-products.”
Is Local Food More Environmentally Friendly? The GHG Emissions Impacts of Consuming Imported versus Domestically Produced Food (2014, methodology): “In this paper we work with a modified version of the GTAP model (Hertel 1997) which incorporates land use by agro-ecological zone, as well as CO2 and non-CO2 GHG emissions from production and international transportation of food commodities (Hertel et al. 2009).”
The impacts of biofuel targets on land-use change and food supply: a global CGE assessment (2010, unknown): “Land elasticities: In our CGE model, we split total land into 18 Agro-Ecological Zones (AEZs) depending on climate type and humidity levels of the land (Hertel et al. 2009).”
