For each Region r:

\[\mathrm{NetImports}_r = \mathrm{Imports}_r - \mathrm{Exports}_r.\]

Imports and exports use the same selectors and content method. Positive values indicate net embodied imports.

db.calc_embodied_net_imports(...) returns embodied imports minus embodied exports for the selected indicator.

Positive values indicate net embodied imports; negative values indicate net embodied exports. When aggregate=False, the output keeps separate Intermediate and Final columns.

indicator, item, scenario, method, clusters, clusters_direction, intermediate, final and aggregate behave like they do in db.calc_trades_content(...).

Database.calc_embodied_net_imports(

indicator,

item=None,

scenario='baseline',

method='total',

clusters=None,

clusters_direction='both',

intermediate=True,

final=True,

aggregate=True,

)

Calculate embodied net imports as imports minus exports.

Positive values indicate net embodied imports; negative values indicate net embodied exports.
