Life cycle inventory development for corn and stover production systems under different allocation methods. (2013, background): “mediated effects as a necessary element of consequential LCA [13].”
Common Misconceptions about Recycling (2016, neutral): “System dynamics, which is quite popular in IE, can also be used to investigate displacement (Earles and Halog 2011; Zink et al. 2015).”
The Future of Ex-Ante LCA? Lessons Learned and Practical Recommendations (2019, background): “Therefore, a brief overview of the properties of the most commonly applied system models is provided in this section (more info can be found in [21,83,84]).”
Integrated environmental and economic assessment of current and future fuel cell vehicles (2015, result): “The evaluation of such effects and relationships call for consequential LCAs, as opposed to the attributional approach used in this study (Lund et al. 2010; Earles and Halog 2011; Zamagni et al. 2012).”
Critical aspects in the life cycle assessment (LCA) of bio-based materials – Reviewing methodologies and deriving recommendations (2013, methodology): “PAS 2050 considers the dimension of time in line with IPCC (2007) and EC (2010a) by applying a timeframe of 100 years.”
The ecoinvent database version 3 (part II): analyzing LCA results and comparison to version 2 (2016, background): “Since the Consequential version aims at looking at consequences of changes (Earles and Halog 2011; Ekvall and Weidema 2004; Zamagni et al. 2012), its underlying modeling principles are fundamentally different (Wernet et al. 2016).”
A review of LCA greenhouse gas emissions results for advanced biofuels: The use of meta-regression analysis (2013, background): “C-LCA has emerged as a modeling approach that captures impacts occurring beyond direct physical relationships assessed in A-LCA [23].”
Life Cycle Inventory Analysis of Recycling: Mathematical and Graphical Frameworks (2014, neutral): “Those methods are often abbreviated as “ALCA” and “CLCA” respectively [18].”
Two sides of the same coin: consequential life cycle assessment based on the attributional framework (2016, methodology): “In advocating for CLCA, the use of economic methods such as computable general equilibrium (CGE) models are often recommended (Earles and Halog, 2011; Ferng, 2009; Plevin et al., 2014).”
Exploring the Current Challenges and Opportunities of Life Cycle Sustainability Assessment (2019, background): “In consequential LCA (CLCA), the assessment aims to model the consequences of the changes of physical flows caused by an increasing or decreasing demand in the processes of the product system [15,16].”
