I, @simonegingrich, @JuliaLeNoe, @FSchwarzmueller, @Nicolas43513211 et al review approaches quantifying land use impacts ( #emissions) from biomass consumption.

Why? Because method choices dictate final estimates.
Analysis of studies (n=20) reveals 4 #research clusters along 2 axes:
Topical focus separates land change drivers ( #consumption) and outcomes ( #emissions).

Analytical focus uncouples observation of current trends (on-ground impacts) and potential scenarios (prospective cases).
We learn:
- Reference baselines lead to bias vs. countries currently having https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🪵" title="Wood" aria-label="Emoji: Wood">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🪓" title="Axt" aria-label="Emoji: Axt">

- https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🛰️" title="Satellit" aria-label="Emoji: Satellit"> scale reveals impacts of direct human actions; aggregated studies its underlying processes.

- Resolving land management legacies over multiple years remains a key challenge.

Fin.
