  1. 26. Investigating the Relation between Efficient, Effective and Sustainable Remediation of Contaminated Sites

    Författare :Robert Anderson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; effective remediation; multi-criteria decision analysis; efficient remediation; decision support; sustainability assessment; cost-benefit analysis; contaminated sites;

    Sammanfattning : Remediation of contaminated sites reduces negative impacts to humans and the environment, but the process itself is typically associated with high costs to society and large environmental footprints. The sustainable remediation concept has, over the past decade, brought increased attention to the often-overlooked contradictory effects of site remediation. LÄS MER

  3. 27. The monetary value of marine environmental change

    Författare :Linus Hasselström; Cecilia Håkansson; Göran Finnveden; Tore Söderqvist; Carl-Johan Lagerkvist; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Contingent valuation; choice experiment; benefits transfer; cost-benefit analysis; ecosystem services; eutrophication; oil spills; Baltic Sea; Arctic; Planering och beslutsanalys; Planning and Decision Analysis;

    Sammanfattning : The marine ecosystems are fundamental for human welfare. A number of current environmental pressures need attention, and the formulation of management strategies requires information from a variety of analytical dimensions. The linkage between environmental change and resulting implications for human welfare is one such dimension. LÄS MER

  4. 28. Risk Assessment of Groundwater Drawdown in Subsidence Sensitive Areas

    Författare :Jonas Sundell; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; inverse modelling; cost-benefit analysis; probabilistic; groundwater drawdown; urban hydrogeology; economic valuation; groundwater leakage; subsidence; value of information analysis.; spatial variability; uncertainty quantification; risk assessment;

    Sammanfattning : Groundwater leakage into sub-surface constructions can result in drawdown, subsidence in compressible materials, and costly damage to buildings and installations. When planning for sub-surface constructions where there is a risk for land subsidence due to groundwater drawdown, the need for safety measures must be carefully evaluated and managed. LÄS MER

  5. 29. Positionsanalys vid beslutsfattande och planering : Ekonomisk analys på tvärvetenskaplig grund

    Författare :Peter Söderbaum; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Nyckelord :position; positionsanalys; beslutsfattande; planering; tvärvetenskap; ekonomi; tröghet; osäkerhet; miljöproblem; industriell ekonomi och organisation; Industrial Economics and Organisations;

    Sammanfattning : Positionsanalys presenteras som ett alternativ till traditionell Cost-Benefit analys (CBA). En mer tvärvetenskaplig och mångdimensionell ekonomisyn föreslås där ett tänkande i positions- eller tillståndstermer spelar en nyckelroll. LÄS MER

  7. 30. Development of a Risk-Based Decision Model for Prioritizing Microbial Risk Mitigation Measures in Drinking Water Systems

    Författare :Viktor Bergion; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quantitative microbial risk assessment; microbial risks; pathogens; water quality modelling; drinking water system; cost-benefit analysis; decision support;

    Sammanfattning : Risk management of drinking water systems is crucial since our society relies on these systems to be robust and sustainable to supply safe drinking water now and to future generations. Pathogens may spread in drinking water systems and cause waterborne outbreaks resulting in human suffering and large costs to the society. LÄS MER
