However, this pattern did not receive sustained attention until biologists began to notice sharp declines in fish populations in lakes in Nor...

Integrated environmental management model of air pollution control by hybrid model of DPSIR and FAHP

The aim of this study is to evaluate the obstacles due to a DPSIR model combined with fuzzy analytic hierarchy process technique. Hence, to prioritize the responses regarding the driving forces, pressures, states and impacts, the hierarchy of the model is established. Evaluations and prioritization of model results of urban transport situation in Tehran have provided a number of necessary issue...
