These documents provide more detailed information on how landfilling and landfill carbon storage are modeled in the Waste Reduction Model (WARM). Included is a brief overview of landfill carbon storage in WARM, detailed documentation of the updated landfill modeling methodology used in WARM, and the approach used to model component-specific decay rates for landfilling of materials in WARM.
