Forest carbon credits lack a direct chain of evidence linking specific trees to specific credits, unlike other financial instruments. They rely on calculations and models, creating a gap that courts are beginning to question. This undermine…

Chiara De Notaris

This deliverable proposes integrating soil health indicators into the EU Carbon Farming Certification Framework using a multi-indicator approach combining physical, chemical, and biological metrics. It identifies the Observed/Typical SOC in…

GALVEZ PRP

This study proposes a Life Cycle Assessment framework to transform TBM tunnel spoils from waste into carbon-negative assets through circular valorization. Results show 25-40% carbon reduction versus landfilling, and a net-negative balance o…

This archive provides Python scripts and datasets to replicate analysis of carbon footprints from China's data centers, including historical accounting, scenario-based forecasting, and embodied supply chain emissions. Detailed annotations e…

Haroon Taylor, Nazneen Rahman

This dataset provides cradle-to-gate carbon footprint values for medicinal products, including API, excipients, and primary packaging, calculated using the peer-reviewed MCF Classifier methodology. It includes data for approximately 35,000 …

This study proposes a method to fuse satellite-derived crop productivity, in-situ soil organic carbon measurements, and a soil carbon model (YASSO15) to estimate annual carbon exchange at parcel scale. The GPP model uses Sentinel-2 red edge…

Florian Pothin

This paper provides code and derived results for a product-level Trade-LCA framework for embodied carbon accounting in global trade. No datasets are bundled; users must obtain inputs from their respective providers. The framework enables pr…
