Using the model, we performed a downscaling of the IAMs' regional aggregated land-use projections to obtain a spatial land-use distribution, which could subsequently be used by Earth system models for global environmental assessments of ecosystem services, food security, and climate policies. Here we describe the land-use allocation model, discuss the verification of the downscaling technique, and explain the influences of the downscaling on estimates of land-use carbon emissions. A comparison of the emissions estimated with and without downscaling suggested that the land-use downscaling would help capture the spatial distribution of carbon stock density and regional heterogeneity of carbon emissions caused by cropland and pasture land expansion. date: 2017-02 date_type: published publisher: Elsevier id_number: doi:10.1016/j.scitotenv.2016.12.025 creators_browse_id: 1314 creators_browse_id: 2881 full_text_status: public publication: Science of the Total Environment volume: 580 pagerange: 787-796 refereed: TRUE issn: 1879-1026 coversheets_dirty: FALSE fp7_project: no fp7_type: info:eu-repo/semantics/article citation: Hasegawa, T. , Fujimori, S.
