Published estimates of the potential of bioenergy vary widely, mainly due to the
heterogeneity of methodologies, assumptions and datasets employed. These discrepancies …

Recent energy and climate policies, particularly in the developed world, have increased
demand for bioenergy2 as an alternative, which has led to both direct and indirect land-use …

Corn stover as well as perennial grasses like switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) and
miscanthus are being considered as candidates for the second generation biofuel …

This paper describes a study of the variability of measured composition for a single bulk
sugarcane bagasse conducted across eight laboratories using similar analytical methods …

Promotion of energy from biomass for reducing greenhouse gas emissions has led to
increased usage of freshwater, especially during the cultivation of biomass. This has raised …

This study evaluates the potential impact of increased biofuel production on the hydrology of
a small watershed, Khlong Phlo, in the eastern part of Thailand. The water footprint of biofuel …

In order to reduce input costs and improve sustainability of energy/forage crops in the
northern Great Plains (NGP), preceding cover crops can be included into existing annual …

Rusts are economically important diseases of switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) and other
Paniceae grasses. Phylogenetic analyses based on sequences of the nuc rDNA 5.8 S …

Sustainable energy development concept requires and maintains multiple linkages among
energy production, energy consumption, human well-being, and environmental quality …

Various studies have demonstrated that spectral indices derived from remotely sensed data
can be used to quantify crop residue cover, if adequately calibrated using in situ data. This …
