AF Filières : Analyse des Flux des Filières biomasse pour des stratégies régionales de bioéconomie

Project funded by ADEME

Duration: 2017-2019

Coordinator: Jean-Yves COURTONNE (Equipe STEEP, Inria) [Emmanuel Prados (STEEP/Inria) for Inria partner]

Other partners: Equipe STEEP, Inria, Grenoble Rhônalpénergie-Environnement (RAEE), Lyon Laboratoire d’Economie Forestière (LEF), INRA / AgroParisTech Nancy.

Keywords: Environmental assessment, Ecological accounting, Material Flow Analysis, Sustainable supply chains, Multicriteria analysis.

Abstract: Flow analyses of biomass supply chains for regional bioeconomy policies. The goals of the project are the following:

• Improve knowledge on the material flows of the forest-wood and agri-food supply chains in France at national and regional levels,

• Provide a holistic vision of the situation by associating environmental and socio-economic indicators to material flows,

• Provide a more precise assessments (quantitatively and qualitatively) in the case of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region.

ESNET : Futures of ecosystem services networks for the Grenoble region

Project funded by FRB (Fondation pour la Recherche sur la Biodiversité)

Program: “Modeling and Scenarios of Biodiversity" flagship program, Fondation pour la Recherche sur la Biodiversité (FRB). This project is funded by ONEMA (Office National de l'Eau et des Milieux Aquatiques).

Duration: 2013 – 2017

Coordinator: Sandra Lavorel (LECA)

Other partners: EDDEN (UPMF/CNRS), IRSTEA Grenoble (formerly CEMAGREF), PACTE (UJF/CNRS), ERIC (Lyon 2/CNRS)

Abstract: This project explores alternative futures of ecosystem services under combined scenarios of land-use and climate change for the Grenoble urban area in the French Alps. In this project, STEEP works in particular on the modeling of the land use and land cover changes, and to a smaller extent on the interaction of these changes with some specific services.
