Uncertainty analysis in multi-region input-output models: a case study of the UK's carbon footprint

The research employs Monte Carlo techniques and error propagation to analyze stochastic variation in a global MRIO model. Based on 5,000 simulation runs, the study estimates an 89% probability that the UK's carbon footprint increased between 1994 and 2004.

• The study used Monte Carlo techniques with 5,000 simulation runs to determine the standard deviations of multipliers within a global MRIO system.
• There is an estimated 89% probability that the carbon footprint of the UK increased during the period from 1994 to 2004.
