Summary

Description
English: Miscanfor computer model estimate of Miscanthus x giganteus yields for Europe, based on collected weather data from 1960 to 1990. Black = excluded area, blue = too cold, brown = too dry, red to yellow to green = 0 - 20 - 40 tonnes peak dry mass yield per hectare per year. Original caption text: "Miscanthus×giganteus mean peak dry matter yields for the period 1960–1990 calculated using MISCANFOR (a) compared with the distribution of Arable land in 2000 for EU27 (d). (b) Dry‐matter yield map with frost kill mask (blue) and drought kill mask (brown) superimposed. The CORINE (2005) land use data set on a 250 m × 250 m grid is used to derive the 5′× 5′ grid map of the % arable land displayed in (d). The resulting mean carbon intensity (CI) of M.×giganteus used as a furnace fuel calculated from this mean yield and the soil organic carbon (SOC) is compared with those of coal is shown as black mask in (c) and areas where the energy‐use efficiency (EUE) is less than unity are displayed in (c) as light blue."
