Table 8 For each modelling scenario and year (assuming 1-year delay for transferring roundwood to the product pool, after removals), the table reports the fraction of roundwood directly exported to other countries and the consequent relative variation on the amount of industrial roundwood production (IRWP), export (IRWEX), and import (IRWIM) applied to Eq. (8), in comparison with the value applied in BaU scenario

  1. The total amount of industrial roundwood production (IRWP), export (IRWP), and import (IRWP) for coniferous species reported by FAOSTAT for the historical period (i.e. until 2018), and estimated by our study according to the methodological assumptions reported above are reported on Fig. 7. The final relative variation of the domestic production, as resulting from Eq. (8) for the coniferous component is reported in Fig. 8. The additional amount of coniferous roundwood material provided through salvage logging was entirely assigned to the coniferous sawn wood commodity.
