Ecological Capability Evaluation of Sharui Watershed for Forestery Land Us by Makhdoom Model and AHP Method
Forests areas of Iran in comparison with the world is very low and this low area is in demolition threat always. Hence, the remainder of these forests should be managed based on ecological capability evaluation. With regard to importance of subject, ecological capability for forestry in the Sharui watershed, Khuzestan province, was evaluated in 2015. For this purpose, the Makhdoom model and AHP...
متن کاملSelection of remedial alternatives for mine sites: a multicriteria decision analysis approach.
The selection of remedial alternatives for mine sites is a complex task because it involves multiple criteria and often with conflicting objectives. However, an existing framework used to select remedial alternatives lacks multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) aids and does not consider uncertainty in the selection of alternatives. The objective of this paper is to improve the existing framewo...
متن کاملDevelopment and Analysis of Remedial Alternatives for Arsenic Impacted Ground Water
Remedial alternatives for arsenic impacted ground water at a former insecticide manufacturing facility are developed and analyzed in this thesis. Five remedial technologies are evaluated, including conventional pump and treat, monitored natural attenuation, soil flushing, electrokinetics, and in-situ fixation. Twelve case studies of arsenic impacted sites are developed from telephone interviews...
متن کاملEvaluating remediation alternatives for mine drainage, Little Cottonwood Creek, Utah, USA
The vast occurrence of mine drainage worldwide, documented in descriptive studies, presents a staggering challenge for remediation. Any tool that can move beyond descriptive study and helps to evaluate options for remediation in a way that maximizes improvements to the water quality of streams and minimizes cost of remediation could save valuable resources and time. A reactive solute transport ...
متن کاملStuck in the Mud: Multiple Causes of Ecological Risk in Sediment
Assessment of potential ecological risk to benthic organisms inhabiting these sediments is often necessary to determine risk-based remedial cleanup goals. In some cases, these ecological risk assessments (ERAs) can be relatively straightforward, focusing only on the visual presence of tar or sheen in sediment cores or on PAH concentrations linked to unacceptable risk thresholds. However, ERAs c...
