A research project is proposed focused on global-scale geospatial analysis relevant to bioenergy. This 3-year thematic project, conceived as a contribution to the Global Sustainable Bioenergy initiative, is structured into three tasks with objectives corresponding to targeted papers with tentative titles as follows: Task I. Potential for Pasture Intensification Subsequent Energy Crop Prod…
The present project "Development and preliminary application of a multi-crop global energy crop yield model on pastureland" is part of the FAPESP Thematic Project "Global Sustainable Bioenergy Initiative: Geospatial & environmental analysis of pastureland intensification for bioenergy". The project is being led by Dr. John Sheehan under the auspices of FAPESP's São Paulo Excellence Chair …
The specific objective of the present work is to perform a meta-analysis study evaluating greenhouse gases emission in livestock systems. The main greenhouse gases due anthropogenic activities are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O). The global warming potential of N2O is 298 times higher than CO2. Moreover the N2O is the main substance depleting ozone layer in thi…
In this post doc will be evaluate the impact of key geophysical factors on analysis of pasture performance gaps and intensification potential using climate binning. Overview. A key goal of pasture analysis is to evaluate the extent to which management factors can have the potential to increase yield. By binning land for which annual precipitation and degree days vary over only a small ran…

The present proposal of visiting postdoctoral fellowship (BEPE) is a part of a thematic project that is proposed focused on global-scale geospatial analysis relevant to bioenergy. This 3-year thematic project, conceived as a contribution to the Global Sustainable Bioenergy (GSB) initiative, is structured into three tasks with objectives corresponding to targeted papers with tentative titl…
This work plan belongs to a FAPESP (São Paulo Research Foundation) thematic project "Global Sustainable Bioenergy initiative - Geospatial and environmental analysis of pasture intensification for bioenergy", process N° 2014/26767-9, and three topics are addressed: (1) Pasture land use and intensification; (2) Sustainability of pasture intensification and modelling of bioenergy crops; and…
The livestock production contributes to around 18% of total anthropogenic greenhouse gases emissions (GHG), and 80% of the agriculture sector. Nitrous oxide (N2O) from manure deposited in grassland is one of the main sources, corresponding to 17% of the livestock sector. Nitrification inhibitors (NI) added to manure and to N fertilizer is a strategy to reduce N2O emissions. However, the N…
