Biofuels are also a relatively low-cost alternative to the high-energy density fuels needed in aviation and shipping. In switchgrass scenarios planted on croplands or pasturelands, gains in NECB reflect increases in soil carbon stocks. Modeled ecosystem carbon fluxes for different land use scenarios.
