Description
Summary:This is a backup of a a life cycle assessment database, which contains a life cycle assessment model of Casey Station in Antarctica. The life cycle model consists of interlinked processes, which describe the flow of energy and materials, and subsequest environmental flows on Casey Station. These environmental flows are then used in the life cycle model to assess potential environmental impacts of operating Casey Station for one year. The potential environmental impacts are assessed using established life cycle impact assessment methods, including climate change (measured in kg-CO2-eq) and eutrophication potential (measured in kg N-eq). The data used to develop the life cycle assessment model was sourced from primary data from the Australian Antarctic Division, literature and existing life cycle assessment models. To open this dataset, you will need a licence for SimaPro life cycle assessment software version 8.04.26 or later, published by PRe consultants.
