Download or read book Environmental Valuation written by Jennifer Rietbergen-McCracken and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-11 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This companion volume to Economic Instruments for Environmental Management presents essential information on the applications of economic valuation to environment and development. It draws on a three-year collaborative effort by research institutions around the world. Authoritative studies review the range of valuation methods used in developing economies, their purposes, the problems encountered and the quality of the results. Topics covered include the value of wildlife viewing, the conservation of rainforests, mangroves and coral reefs, supplying rural water, and controlling urban air pollution. The analysis reveals important methodological and contextual factors, highlighting key lessons and ways of strengthening future valuations. Written to be accessible to non-economists, the book provides source material for students and academics, and for policy-makers and professionals, using valuation methods to frame policy.
Download or read book Evaluaci n de impacto ambiental written by GOMEZ OREA, DOMINGO and published by Ediciones Mundi-Prensa. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 748 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta edición en rigor es la séptima del libro, un libro "vivo", que ha ido creciendo y evolucionando sin interrupción desde que vio la luz en 1988. En esta larga trayectoria ha superado con éxito el refrendo de una intensa y extensa utilización en la vida académica y en la actividad profesional, como libro de texto y de consulta, durante la cual se ha ido perfeccionando y consolidando, manteniendo en todo momento su carácter de obra de referencia en materia de Evaluación de Impacto Ambiental (EIA). Cuando llega esta nueva edición, la EIA se puede considerar un campo de conocimientos maduro, lo que ha permitido a los autores depurar, simplificar y consolidar el contenido de la anterior. Así esta edición ha ajustado el marco conceptual a la realidad de su ya larga aplicación, ha ampliado la capacidad de uso de la metodología general y simplificado el diagrama de flujos que la representa, y ha hecho operativa la idea de integración ambiental. Pero la edición ha conservado el doble carácter académico y profesional de las anteriores, que equilibraba el enfoque conceptual asociado a la reflexión y al progreso del conocimiento propios de la academia, con el enfoque orientado a su aplicación directa en la actividad profesional a través de metodologías, de técnicas y de numerosos ejemplos. Por ello sus destinatarios abarcan al estudiante universitario, al titulado de cualquier campo de conocimiento que desea orientar su vida profesional hacia la gestión ambiental, o al profesional cuya actividad diaria le exige consultar obras de referencia. También se ha conservado la estructura en tres partes, divididas en catorce capítulos, y completadas con seis apéndices. La primera enmarca, en cinco capítulos, la EIA en el concepto de medio ambiente y su problemática, del desarrollo sostenible y de la gestión ambiental, y sugiere la integración ambiental de políticas, planes, programas, proyectos y actividades en marcha, para avanzar hacia la sostenibilidad. La segunda parte desarrolla la EIA en siete capítulos, en los que partiendo del concepto de impacto ambiental, expone la EIA en términos conceptuales, metodológicos y técnicos, y termina presentando el modelo informatizado IMPRO4, diseñado por los autores para realizar estudios de impacto ambiental. La tercera y última parte presenta en su único capítulo, una amplia relación de indicadores de impacto ambiental y las correspondientes funciones de calidad o de transformación para valorar cuantitativamente los impactos, acompañados con ejemplos de aplicación. El libro finaliza con seis apéndices, en los que se exponen diferentes técnicas y ejemplos específicos y dos estudios de caso completos.

Download or read book Geomorphology and Environmental Impact Assessment written by M. Marchetti and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume focuses on the close relationship between geomorphology and environmental impact assessment, and provides a wide-ranging overview of this topic. It includes several case studies covering a variety of environmental impacts derived from human activities (quarrying, communication infrastructure etc.) on different geomorphologic components (landforms, soil, landscapes etc.) and environments (glacial, fluvial, coastal etc.) The case studies presented offer a methodological guide from the most traditional geomorphological approaches through to the use of spatial data analysis and GIS tools and techniques. Environmental Impact Assessment is a relatively new scientific branch in which a wide variety of specialists are increasingly becoming involved. This volume will be of interest to geomorphologists, biologists, geographers, architects and engineers.

This book was released on 2004-05-21 with total page 1446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The natural mission of Computational Science is to tackle all sorts of human problems and to work out intelligent automata aimed at alleviating the b- den of working out suitable tools for solving complex problems. For this reason ComputationalScience,thoughoriginatingfromtheneedtosolvethemostch- lenging problems in science and engineering (computational science is the key player in the ?ght to gain fundamental advances in astronomy, biology, che- stry, environmental science, physics and several other scienti?c and engineering disciplines) is increasingly turning its attention to all ?elds of human activity. In all activities, in fact, intensive computation, information handling, kn- ledge synthesis, the use of ad-hoc devices, etc. increasingly need to be exploited and coordinated regardless of the location of both the users and the (various and heterogeneous) computing platforms. As a result the key to understanding the explosive growth of this discipline lies in two adjectives that more and more appropriately refer to Computational Science and its applications: interoperable and ubiquitous. Numerous examples of ubiquitous and interoperable tools and applicationsaregiveninthepresentfourLNCSvolumescontainingthecontri- tions delivered at the 2004 International Conference on Computational Science and its Applications (ICCSA 2004) held in Assisi, Italy, May 14–17, 2004.

Download or read book Environmental Impact IV written by J. Casares and published by WIT Press. This book was released on 2018-10-23 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comprising a collection of papers from the 4th International Conference on Environmental and Economic Impact on Sustainable Development, the research studies included in this book consider the impact of economic constraints on the environment, taking into account the social aspects as well as the over-use of natural resources. The papers examine issues related to whether some forms of development are compatible with environmental protection, particularly in cases of possible serious contamination and toxicity. Uncontrolled development can result in damage to the environment in terms of the release of toxic substances and hazardous waste. Addressing problems of great importance, this book examines more constructive and progressive approaches to ensure sustainability. A major motivation is to learn from past failure, to avoid repeating similar mistakes, while attempting to prevent emerging threats to environmental and ecological systems. Fundamental to these concepts are the analysis of the inherent risk and the development of appropriate strategies.
