The metabolic transition of a planned economy: Material flows in the USSR and the Russian Federation 1900 to 2010: Online MFA 1900-2010 dataset.

This dataset contains data on extraction, imports, exports and apparent consumption by main material groups for the USSR, the Russian Federation and the Former Soviet Union for the period 1900 to 2010 as well as data for the international comparison of socio-metabolic indicators. Data are presented as global totals (1000t), per capita of global population (t/cap/yr) and per unit of global GDP (t/$ 1990 intl. $/yr).

Human appropriation of net primary production (HANPP) 1910 to 2005: HANPP paramaters by world regions.

This dataset contains data on potential NPP, HANPPharvest, HANPPland-conversion, HANPP by land use type and HANPP by human induced fires for world regions and country groups for the period 1910-2005. NPP flows are presented in 1000 tons carbon per year. Additionally data on population and land area are provided.

Global material flow data by world regions and country groupings, 1950-2010

This dataset contains material extraction, imports, and exports for 6 world regions and country groupings between 1950 and 2010. The data are presented in metric tons and by 6 major material categories (biomass, fossil fuels, metals, waste rock, industrial minerals, and construction minerals). The derived material flow accounting indicators of physical trade balance (PTB) and domestic material consumption (DMC) are also provided. DMC data are made available in both absolute and per capita terms. Material intensity (DMC/GDP) was calculated based on GDP in constant 1990 international Geary-Khamis dollars and included in the dataset. Information on the data sources and methods can be retrieved from the technical notes.
