most research on the effect of rural industry has measured two main features: a) an oriented. b) economic impacts (jobs and income. the research method has been qualitative which has studied the effects of the large gas refinery industry on the economy of rural areas and in other dimensions (social and environmental) follow villagers from their perspective is. results show that industrial devel...

The aim of this study is to assess the risk factors of pipelines and prioritize their severity in order to prevent their effects in Shadegan International wetland, Iran. Due to the participatory nature of the managerial affairs, the study employs an integrated approach that combines Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Delphi Method. Also, Likret Scale has been applied to quantify the qualitati...

2 Research Geologist, USDA Forest Service Pacific Southwest Research Station, Redwood Sciences Laboratory, 1700 Bayview Dr., Arcata, CA 95521 Abstract: Cumulative effects are the combined effects of multiple activities, and watershed effects are those which involve processes of water transport. Almost all impacts are influenced by multiple activities, so almost all impacts must be evaluated as ...

In this working paper the regional impacts of road pricing on cars are analysed taking into account externality effects from transportation on wages and productivity. In the paper the direct impacts from changes in transport costs on level of wages and productivity (=direct externality effects) have been estimated. The direct and derived impacts of road pricing have been analysed with AKF's loc...

The factors involved in evaluations of effects of volatile organic compound (VOC) and oxides of nitrogen emissions from motor vehicles on ground-level ozone are reviewed. The chemical basis for ozone formation, the computer models and chemical mechanisms used for predicting ozone impacts, and methods for quantifying differences among VOCs in their ozone impacts, are discussed. It is recommended...

wastewater production is increasing every year. the variety of contaminants necessitates the application of effective and advanced treatment methods. among the materials that  are predominantly used for wastewater treatment are carbon nanotubes. exposure to the residuals of carbon nanotubes after wastewater treatment through drinking, inhalation, and dermal contact during regular indoor activit...
