Описание: The management of environmental contamination requires decision makers to weigh existing risks against the potential effects of implementing environmental policies, considering both the benefits and disruptions that may result from different courses of action. The present book represents an major advance in the development and application of cost-efficient methods of risk assessment, especially under circumstances of budget constraints and in developing countries. The book explores the potential of risk assessment to act as a unified and unifying technique for addressing a wide range of environmental problems. A wide range of issues are discussed, ranging from specific and local studies through global decision and management frameworks. The approaches developed range from specific methods through widely applied public policies. The book shows that the use of risk assessment can provide the scientific basis for environmentally sound, cost-effective policies, strategies and solutions to our environmental challenges.

Описание: This book focuses on environmental planning and management. Environmental problems are not purely scientific; some of the major problems deal with poor
management and the inability to involve people in environmental decision making process. The approach taken in this book is to review environmental problems as they are affected by
poor planning and management.
Understanding of management issues involved will help to get top management to buy into environmental management. The tendency is for
top management to view environmental management efforts as expensive and wasteful to an organization. However, when top management is exposed to the high cost of doing
nothing and the lack of competitiveness as a result of poor environmental quality, it is more likely to buy into the idea of environmental quality and work towards achieving sustainable
goals.
Описание: This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence: Methodology, Systems, and Applications, AIMSA 2006, held in Varna, Bulgaria in September 2006.The 28 revised full papers presented together with the abstracts of 2 invited lectures were carefully reviewed and selected from 81 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on agents, constraints and optimization, user concerns, decision support, models and ontologies, machine learning, ontology manipulation, natural language processing, and applications.
Описание: This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence: Methodology, Systems, and Applications, AIMSA 2016, held in Varna, Bulgaria in September 2015.The 32 revised full papers 6 poster papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 86 submissions. They cover a wide range of topics in AI: from machine learning to natural language systems, from information extraction to text mining, from knowledge representation to soft computing; from theoretical issues to real-world applications.
Описание: The aim of this book is to link demand and supply of environmental information in the field of Life Cycle Management. The book is based on the results of the
CHAINET concerted action financed by EU-DGXII for the work period 1998-2000, and is intended to build bridges between the different scientific communities in the field of Life Cycle
Management. A structured approach is followed, meaning that both demand and supply of environmental information are characterised, after which the two are linked.
Описание: Water resource management is complicated in practice on account of the diverse nature of the resource and its many uses. This volume reports recent economic research on the theory, practice, and policy of water management. It is distinguished by the number and the range of the applications it considers. Chapters consider problems in the estimation of water demand in residential and agricultural contexts. Efficiency and externality considerations are considered in chapters concerning common aquifers as well as domestic conservation. Management policies are discussed in regard to chemical contamination, reservoir construction, and industrial regulation. The volume is intended for resource economists, especially those concerned with the management of water resources. It provides insights into the latest research on the economic issues concerning this important resource.
Описание: The authors of this volume follow four interrelated themes. In the first section "Evolving Definitions - Changing Practices" the fundamental shifts in urban modeling practices are examined in relation to the new theoretical and computational advances in the field. The second section "Ecologic Processes and their Land Use Implications" provides current examples of ecological models that influence land use policy and planning. "Visualization, Representation and Communication" deals exclusively with the science and art of geographic data generation and representation techniques. Finally the section on "Socioeconomic Implications of Transportation and Land Use" examines the traditional domain of urban models from a sociological and environmental perspective and offers new insights on transportation planning.
Описание: This volume of Advances in Intelligent and Soft Computing contains accepted - pers presented at SOCO 2010 held in the beautiful and historic city of Guimaraes, Portugal, June 2010.
Описание: This textbook on Environmental Biotechnology not only presents an unbiased overview of the practical biological approaches currently employed to address environmental problems, but also equips readers with a working knowledge of the science that underpins them. Starting with the fundamentals of biotechnology, it subsequently provides detailed discussions of global environmental problems including microbes and their interaction with the environment, xenobiotics and their remediation, solid waste management, waste water treatment, bioreactors, biosensors, biomining and biopesticides.This book also covers renewable and non-renewable bioenergy resources, biodiversity and its conservation, and approaches to monitoring biotechnological industries, genetically modified microorganism and foods so as to increase awareness.All chapters are written in a highly accessible style, and each also includes a short bibliography for further research. In summary this textbook offers a valuable asset, allowing students, young researchers and professionals in the biotechnology industry to grasp the basics of environmental biotechnology.
