Ethanol Can Contribute to Energy and Environmental Goals
Alexander E. Farrell,Richard J. Plevin,Brian T. Turner,Andrew D. Jones,Michael O'Hare,Daniel M. Kammen +5 more
TL;DR: It is already clear that large-scale use of ethanol for fuel will almost certainly require cellulosic technology and new metrics that measure specific resource inputs are developed, but further research into environmental metrics is needed.

TL;DR: This article evaluated six representative analyses of fuel ethanol and found that current corn ethanol technologies are much less petroleum-intensive than gasoline but have greenhouse gas emissions similar to those of gasoline, and that large-scale use of ethanol for fuel will almost certainly require cellulosic technology.
Effects of US Maize Ethanol on Global Land Use and Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Estimating Market-mediated Responses
Thomas W. Hertel,Alla Golub,Andrew D. Jones,Michael O'Hare,Richard J. Plevin,Daniel M. Kammen +5 more
TL;DR: Factoring market-mediated responses and by-product use into this analysis reduces cropland conversion by 72% from the land used for the ethanol feedstock, thereby limiting its potential contribution in the context of California's Low Carbon Fuel Standard.

Greenhouse gas emissions from biofuels' indirect land use change are uncertain but may be much greater than previously estimated.
TL;DR: Fuel policies that require narrow bounds around point estimates of life cycle GHG emissions are incompatible with current and anticipated modeling capabilities and alternative policies that address the risks associated with uncertainty are more likely to achieve GHG reductions.

The Land Use Model Intercomparison Project (LUMIP) contribution to CMIP6:rationale and experimental design
David M. Lawrence,George C. Hurtt,Almut Arneth,Victor Brovkin,Katherine Calvin,Andrew D. Jones,Chris D. Jones,Peter Lawrence,Nathalie de Noblet-Ducoudré,Julia Pongratz,Sonia I. Seneviratne,Elena Shevliakova +11 more
TL;DR: The Land Use Model Intercomparison Project (LUMIP) aims to further advance understanding of the impacts of land-use and land-cover change (LULCC) on climate, specifically addressing the following questions.
