Review of indicators for comparing environmental effects across energy sources

environmental effects of gol-e-gohar iron ore mine on groundwater of the area

gol-e-gohar iron ore mine of sirjan in southern part of iran is a large open pit that operates below the groundwater table and during mining operation, dewatering is required to prevent operation processes from flooding. current operation is going on by digging wells in or out of the pit and pumping to prevent flooding. as a result of the former dewatering operation a vast deep cone of depressi...

Comparing perceptual learning across tasks: A review

We compared perceptual learning in 16 psychophysical studies, ranging from low-level spatial frequency and orientation discrimination tasks to high-level object and face-recognition tasks. All studies examined learning over at least four sessions and were carried out foveally or using free fixation. Comparison of learning effects across this wide range of tasks demonstrates that the amount of l...

Comparative health and environmental risks for various energy sources

by S. Haddad I he first attempts to compare the environmenand tal and health impacts of different electricity R. Dones production systems were made in the 1970s. At that time, fundamental decisions had to be taken on the best way of satisfying the rapid growth in electricity demand. Promoters of this generation of comparative studies were basically inspired by a willingness to rank on a unidime...

Survey Indicators for Environmental Innovation

This report sets out to describe indicators on environmental technological innovation and their usefulness for environment-related STI policy and innovation study. Environmental technological innovations consist of new or modified processes, techniques, systems and products that help to reduce environmental damage. This is a new area for indicator research. In this report we will examine how en...
