Detailed background data
It has been assumed that the food processing industry is located in Denmark. Retail is modelled assuming the following storage: Cooled. See more details as well as literature references in the methodoly report on: www.denstoreklimadatabase.dk.
Data on inputs and outputs of the food processing industry is modelled using: Data for this species is based on data for salmon aquaculture because it is currently fished to its carrying capacity and wild catch cannot be increased. Therefore, an increasing demand affects the marginal saltwater fish source, the aquaculture of salmon. Salmon feed data are obtained from FAO (2020b). Electricity data are obtained with own elaboration from Kim and Zhang (2018) to represent the electricity use in intensive aquaculture in cold climate.
