Abstract:
Karst regions are composed of soluble rock, often limestone, which leads to the formation of fissures, sinkholes and water flow conduits such as caves. Pollutants in karst waters tend to be quickly directed and concentrated into these subsurface conduits. As a result of this and other factors, water resources are especially sensitive to contamination and pollution in karst areas. Pollutant concentrations going into fluvial systems travelling through the subsurface in karst areas are often very similar to the concentrations arriving at outlets such as springs.

Abstract:
The thesis investigates the use of natural resources in indebted economies. This issue is motivated by arguments which suggest that as a consequence of high external debt burdens developing economies have been forced to over-exploit their natural resources. The thesis employs analytical and econometric modelling techniques to assess this debt-resources link which in the more popular literature has lacked any basis in economic theory or econometric evidence. The thesis begins by placing the debt-resources link within the context of established theoretical literature. It is argued that the liter

Abstract:
Ecological economists aim to study the interrelations between ecological and economic systems, with a view to promoting changes towards sustainability. They agree that the nature of global environmental crises is systemic and rooted in economic dynamics. Yet, core economic categories, such as prices, profits, money and their interrelations with ecological destruction, are surprisingly undertheorized. The 'economic' becomes either tied to neoclassical economics or remains neglected. Marxian Political Economy has the potential to address this gap, but is mostly ignored in ecological economics, e

We discover that the axiom of completeness is not needed anymore. Using fuzziness will also allow us to better explain the existing gap between delimiting possible choices and making the actual choice.
