This dataset provides embodied carbon estimates for structural materials of 53 Finnish residential building cohorts from the 1940s to 2010s, using present-day GWP coefficients. It covers single-family houses and blocks of flats, offering es…

Fang Wang, Wenwen Zhang, Yue Zhang +5

This study analyzes spatial mismatch and flows of carbon stocks and emissions in Chongqing's main urban area from 2000 to 2020 using InVEST and spatial flow models. Carbon stocks declined while emissions increased, expanding deficit areas. …
