Benefits of cellulosic ethanol feedstocks: Davis et al in Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment
Using the #DAYCENT model and assuming a regime of careful land use planning, Davis et al argue that replacing corn in the US with #cellulosic #biofuel feedstocks (#switchgrass, #miscanthus) could reduce nitrogen leeching and greenhouse gas emissions while improving #ethanol yields and maintaining the non-biofuel-use grain supply: http://bioenergyigert.wordpress.com/2011/07/19/switchgrass-miscanthus-study/
