Modelling a New Sector: Reformulation of a Social Accounting Matrix for Multiplier Analysis

This document describes in detail how reformulation to a Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) can be made in order to analyze the multiplier effects of a new sector. A different input composition, or technology, of the sector makes a conventional analysis of final-demand injections on existing sectors invalid. We show that the reformulation—so-called hypothetical integration—is an efficient way to in...

Accounting for nitrogen in Denmark—a structural decomposition analysis

This paper examines the environmental-economic cycle for nitrogen in Denmark based on nitrogen input and output from different economic sectors.

The changes in agricultural and industrial nitrogen loading from ...
