Abstract

: One-fi fth of the Amazon has vanished, with global consequences for carbon emissions and “ local ” consequences for rainfall patterns on a continental scale. The agricultural sector is both the cause and victim of deforestation. As farmers deforest to increase land supply, rainfall decreases else-where. In a model with endogenous climate, rainfall and land use in fl uence each other, creating winners and losers in agriculture (chap. 1). Additionally, with decreasing rainfall, hydropower plants generate less electricity. A map that speci fi es regions of deforestation affecting hydropower plants allows policymakers to focus conservation and restoration efforts (chap. 2). The decision to deforest is not an atomistic process. Brazil made the decision to cut through the forest with large infrastructure projects, assessing (when assessing) the deforestation footprint based solely on distance to the projects. A trade model provides more realistic deforestation scenarios post-infrastructure

:亚马逊河流域有五分之一的土地已经消失,这对全球的碳排放造成了影响,也对整个大陆的降雨模式造成了 "局部 "影响。农业部门既是森林砍伐的原因,也是森林砍伐的受害者。随着农民为增加土地供应而砍伐森林,其他地方的降雨量也随之减少。在一个内生气候模型中,降雨和土地利用相互影响,在农业领域产生了赢家和输家(第 1 章)。此外,随着降雨量的减少,水电站的发电量也会减少。一张地图可以具体标明影响水电站的森林砍伐区域,使政策制定者能够集中精力开展保护和恢复工作(第 2 章)。砍伐森林的决定不是一个孤立的过程。巴西决定在实施大型基础设施项目时砍伐森林,在评估森林砍伐足迹时仅以项目距离为依据。贸易模型提供了更真实的基础设施建设后森林砍伐情景。
