The disappointment about the weak direct relationship between environmental concern and specific environmentally related behaviors is due to the incorrect assumption that general attitudes like environmental concern are direct determinants of specific behaviors. Because only situation-specific cognitions are direct determinants of specific behaviors, future research should no longer view enviro...

This paper discusses image processing algorithms for the recognition of environmental and road conditions from real-time camera images. This research addresses various implementation techniques for and considerations of the implementation of algorithms to extrapolate various features from images taken by stationary traffic cameras. These algorithms have uses in the areas of traffic pattern anal...

Increased environmental concerns, resulted in new legislation, and high and volatile fuel prices are today’s driving forces to reduce operational costs and become greener. Reduction of fuel consumption acts as the main contributor towards this. In the context of the given economic pressure and from international law point of view, the amount of energy-savings by vessel fuel should be increased ...

We investigate the existence of biases, in particular the so called splitting bias, in a real environmental decision analysis case. The splitting bias refers to a situation where presenting an attribute in more detail may increase the weight it receives. We test whether the splitting bias can be eliminated or reduced through instruction and training. The case was the regulation of a lake-river ...
