We seek to highlight how different management objectives alter the gains, losses and spatial patterns of deforestation; investigating the impacts of using different approaches to allocate the same deforestation intensity in order to \u2018optimise\u2019 outcomes across these four commodities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Project focussed on quantifying the economic and environmental, trade-offs and synergies that arise under land use change.
