INSEA Integrated Sink Enhancement Assessment • Integrated economic and environmental assessment of climate change mitigation options (LULUCF) • Integration of farm-level and forest plot-level models with regional and national models
Ecological approach • to determine (spatially, trend) emissions and sinks • to link GHG emissions and C sequestration to agricultural and forestry activities link Economic approach • to estimate abatement costs: • how much does it cost to farmers to reduce emissions? • Total and marginal costs • to assess the potential of mitigation policies • how much emissions can be expected from the use of policy instruments (emission tax, input tax, quotas,…)? • to capture the heterogeneity of abatement costs • where (who) will abatement occur for a given level of incentive?

WP 3000 Problems to solve • integrate socioeconomic & biophysical data, spatial & tabular information • create an ecosystem-based GIS • match different scales • maintain thematic and spatial consistency • develop interface with models • build common metadatabase
WP 3100 • GIS coverages • overview: see CarboData (CORINE, SGDB, Topography, Climate, water catchments, etc.) • thematic maps: biomass (see ALTERRA report), soil (see JRC map on soil C) • thematic Maps to be produced in the project (such as litter fall, soil fertility index, N2O emissions – may be the product of 3300 depending on data availability)?or imported from related projects (e.g. CAPRI DynaSpat)
WP 3200 • Auxiliary Data Requirements • parameter identification • definition of what is “bottom”: management unit • access FADN (Farm Accounting Data Network), LUCAS, INVECOS • Farm management/activity data: area statistics/ proportions (farm types, practices, crop production, etc.) • Additional data needed to define farm types with respect to emission factors: animal density, proximity to market, etc
WP 3300 • Auxiliary Data Requirements • List of practices • Access IPCC emission factor data base (public) – check for completeness using national reporting • Results from ongoing research (see ECCP and TWG SOM task 5) • feed EPIC/DNDC • LULUCF data:C sequestration rates, CO2, CH4 and N2O emission factors (most likely non-representative) • Model input data
WP 3400 • Integration Requirements • Data harmonisation (INSPIRE standards) • Results from 3100-3300 • ongoing data needs from the models • connect spatially at the common (smallest) denominator: EU grid (50x50 km) • create the links between data compilation and data utilization • Application of upscaling techniques • model-parameters/farm types need to sooner or later relate to soil+climate • spatially link activity data with auxiliary data (statistics) and LULUCF data

Approaches SSCRI Data needs EPIC Approach I
WP 3400 Work Approach (1) • Definitions • scale • farm type/practices • compile frame conditions of each model • Data availability • activity data (feasability: see AGRIPOL work plan) • LULUCF data (“external” research, EPIC) • Data base • compile model input data • compile model error budgets
WP 3400 Work Approach (2) • Method development • expert matrix to connect data types identify site factors [soil/climate(topography)] for each farm type/practice if not available: derive (regional) productivity index from land use/EUROSTATS statistics and relate to mapped site factors • extrapolate into areas with little data coverage • compare bottom-up/top-down using area statistics • calculate upscaling errors/regional uncertainties • Map production • Input data maps (e.g. N fertilizer input, forestmanagement types) • Output data maps (e.g. N2O emissions in Europe)
