during recent years several attempts have been made to incorporate environmental and natural resources degradation into national accounts. gnp as measured by the traditional system of national accounts does not consider environmental degradation caused by inefficient exploitation of natural resources. while the complete omission of environmental impacts is not possible, there could be an optima...

india has large resources of natural fibres such as banana, khus, sisal, korai grass,talipot, palm leaf, coconut, pineapple, screwpine, golden grass, jute and sabaiamong others. in the past, trade of the village folk depended on harvesting fibresgrown in their villages. natural fibers have recently gaining attraction of researchersdue to their low cost eco-friendly and biodegradability characte...

Abstract This research has aimed to examine the feedback effects between economic growth and environmental degradation through health that is one of human capital elements and also the consequences of such these relationships on economic convergence process during the period 1990-2013 for 60 developing countries in framework of simultaneous equations model by using unbalanced panel data analysi...

environmental impact assessment (ela) today is a planning tool that is used for the prediction of environmental impacts. there are several methods to assess environmental impacts in the world and iran as well. among them system analysis approach using degradation model (makhdoum, 1996) has shown it's effectiveness. degradation model is used at different levels including the basin , catchme...

environmental degradation model is one of the environmental impact assessment (eia) methods in which ecological cumulative effects of human activities on his surrounding nature could be evaluated and quantified. as a special trait of landscape ecological metrics is the ability of rapid assess and recognize of human activities in the shortest time. thus in this study, we used a landscape degrada...

nowadays, environmental impact assessment (eia) is a one of planning tool that used for the prediction of environmental impacts. there are several methods to assess environmental impacts in the world. degradation model is one of the mathematics models that investigates and predicts data for assessing the impact of development. degradation model consist degradation coefficient per ecology unit, ...

the main factors affecting environmental sensitivity to degradation are soil, vegetation, climate and management, through either their intrinsic characteristics or by their interaction on the landscape. different levels of degradation risks may be observed in response to particular combinations of the aforementioned factors. for instance, the combination of inappropriate management practices an...
