Abstract
The Global Forest Products Model (GFPM) is an economic model of global production, consumption, and trade of forest products. An earlier version of the model is described in Buongiorno et al. (2003). The 2012 version of the GFPM projects world forest commodity markets for 180 countries and 14 forest commodities from a base year (such as 2009) to a target year (such as 2100).
