This report presents a novel hybrid land-flow accounting method for the calculation of land footprints, employing a globally consistent top-down approach and combining physical with environmental-economic accounting. It delivers detailed results for cropland, grassland and forest land footprints for Germany and the EU28 for the years 1995 to 2010, broken down by origin, type and use.1 Onlineressource (98 Seiten)online resourceenghttp://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/EntkopplungRessourcennutzungPrimärenergieträgerWirtschaftswachstumNatürliche RessourceRohstoffproduktivitätWirtschaftsentwicklungland footprintland use indicatorsconsumption-basedland and material flow accountinginput-output-analysisQuantifying the land footprint of Germany and the EU using a hybrid accounting modelQuantifying the land footprint of Germany and the EU using a hybrid accounting modelForschungsberichtSustainability | Strategies | International matters
