Integrated Risk Assessment for CCS

An Integrated Methodology for Assessment and Mapping of Land Degradation Risk in Markazi Province, Iran

Desertification is recognized as a serious environmental threat in Iran because of its climatic-geomorphologicconditions. Desertification and land degradation in arid, semi-arid, and dry sub-humid regions, is a globalenvironmental problem. Accurate assessment of the status and trend of desertification is instrumental in developingglobal strategies to prevent and reverse this problem. The goal o...

Risk Assessment of CO2 Pipeline Network for CCS – A UK Case Study

An Integrated Risk-Based Technique for Project Plan Selection

  Selecting an effective project plan is a significant area in the project management. The present paper introduces a technique to identify the project plan efficient frontier for assessing the alternative project plans and selecting the best plan. The efficient frontier includes two criteria: the project cost and the project time. Besides, the paper presents a scheme to incorporate Directed Ac...

Integrated biomarker response: a useful tool for ecological risk assessment.

A battery of biomarkers is often used to evaluate the effects of exposure to chemical contaminants and detect responses to environmental stress. Unfortunately, field application of biomarkers is subject to various constraints (e.g., the availability of living material) that can limit data acquisition and prevent the use of multivariate methods during statistical analysis. In these circumstances...

An integrated approach for risk assessment in port projects

Port risk management is utilized to describe a sequence of the analysis and management activities focused on creating specific responses to inherent risks in port projects. Risk assessment is taken into account in the projects; however, it is still comparatively neglected for the assessment process with non-parametric resampling techniques and interval analysis. The required data and experts’ j...
