商品描述
This book introduces the Eora, Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP) and World Input-Output (WIOD) databases and provides detailed metadata on the data sources, database structures and construction techniques used to build each system. It offers a detailed account of how multi-regional input–output (MRIO) databases are used to calculate consumption-based accounts – guiding the reader through each mathematical step and explaining the associated equations. It demonstrates that different MRIO databases calculate different national level consumption-based CO2 accounts. If these results are to be used as evidence in climate policy-making, analysts need to be confident about the accuracy of the databases and understand why the results differ.
It carefully explains the mathematical equations behind each technique and provides a link to a repository where the reader can access specially prepared MATLAB functions associated with the techniques.To make meaningful comparisons between the three MRIO databases, each is mapped to a consistent classification system comprising 40 countries and 17 sectors. Further, readers can access the aggregated databases using the link provided. The effect of this aggregation is shown to be minimal, so readers can be confident that the aggregated versions of each database reflect the full-sized versions.
The book concludes by making recommendations as to how future MRIO databases could be accurately and consistently constructed and how they should be used in policy-making in light of the findings.Endorsement
Anne Owen did a splendid job in comparing the most important Global Multiregional Input Output databases (GMRIO) available. She probably is the first to develop a good understanding what factors in GMRIO construction really contribute to uncertainties in carbon footprint analysis. A great achievement, packed in easy to understand language!Prof. Arnold Tukker

With its thorough investigations and clear explanations of the differences in MRIO databases and outcomes, this book is compulsory reading for both skilled practitioners and scholars when starting any input-output analysis in a multiregional context.

商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書介紹了 Eora、全球貿易分析專案 (Global Trade Analysis Project, GTAP) 和世界投入產出 (World Input-Output, WIOD) 數據庫,並提供了有關數據來源、數據庫結構和構建技術的詳細元數據。它詳細說明了多區域投入產出 (Multi-Regional Input-Output, MRIO) 數據庫如何用於計算基於消費的賬目,逐步引導讀者了解每個數學步驟並解釋相關的方程式。它展示了不同的 MRIO 數據庫計算出不同的國家層級基於消費的 CO2 賬目。如果這些結果要用作氣候政策制定的證據,分析師需要對數據庫的準確性有信心,並理解為什麼結果會有所不同。
本書仔細解釋了每種技術背後的數學方程式,並提供了一個鏈接,讀者可以通過該鏈接訪問與這些技術相關的特別準備的 MATLAB 函數。
為了在三個 MRIO 數據庫之間進行有意義的比較,每個數據庫都映射到一個由 40 個國家和 17 個行業組成的一致分類系統。此外,讀者可以使用提供的鏈接訪問聚合數據庫。這種聚合的影響被顯示為微乎其微,因此讀者可以放心,這些數據庫的聚合版本反映了完整版本的內容。
本書最後提出了對未來 MRIO 數據庫如何準確且一致地構建以及如何根據研究結果在政策制定中使用的建議。
**推薦語**
安妮·奧文 (Anne Owen) 在比較最重要的全球多區域投入產出數據庫 (Global Multiregional Input Output, GMRIO) 方面做得非常出色。她可能是第一個對 GMRIO 構建中真正影響碳足跡分析不確定性的因素有良好理解的人。這是一項偉大的成就,使用易於理解的語言表達!
