Zusammenfassung
Regional material flow analysis (MFA) has been proposed to be a useful tool for priority setting and follow-up in environmental management. However, data that are used in regional MFAare usually connected to varying degrees of uncertainties. This paper analyses and discusses how data uncertainties affect the results from a regional MFAstudy of nitrogen flows in a Swedish municipality. It is argued that the intended use ofMFAis associated with considerable difficulties.
