Abstract:
When doing research on marine ecosystem, researchers has figured out a method of setting ecological model based on experimental observations. This paper establishes the marine environmental health assessment model; primarily covering Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), to analyze the evaluation index and weight of the marine ecosystem, then forms the marine ecosystems integrated evaluation model. The feasibility of the model is assessed and predicted by examples. This model also has engineering application vital significance on the evaluation and prediction of marine ecosystem.

Abstract:
The health and integrity of an ecosystem is a multifaceted concept. It can become operational and of use in setting environmental policies once it is backed up by a theory that explicates the basic mechanisms of ecosystem functioning in response to stress. Despite the fact that ecosystem health remains a theoretical construct, the theory proposes a set of observed variables, basically the biotic stocks and flows of the ecosystem, empowered by a computable model, that give rise to operational and diagnostic measures of ecosystem health. The proposed measures are shown to correlate well with sev

Abstract:
A key challenge for achieving sustainability is understanding how to manage landscapes for multiple ecosystem services, the benefits that humans obtain from ecosystems. Because the enhancement of provisioning ecosystem services, such as food and timber, often leads to declines in regulating and cultural ecosystem services, such as nutrient cycling and tourism, ecological management has often been less successful than it could be. As the demand for all types of ecosystem services increases globally, management that considers and manages ecosystem service interactions is needed to produce bette

Quantification of ecosystem services (ES) – the benefits that people obtain from ecosystems – can be valuable for managing multifunctional landscapes and promoting practical conservation measures. However, despite extensive academic attention, actual implementation of ES assessment for management has been limited. Consistent measurement methods and accurate modeling tools are crucial to support successful ES-informed management strategies and ensure the confidence of managers and policy makers in the ES framework.

Australia is experiencing widespread ecosystem degradation, including dryland salinity, erosion and vegetation loss. Approximately 1 million hectares (5.5%) of the south-west agricultural zone of Western Australia is affected by dryland salinity and is predicted to rise to 5.4 million hectares by 2050. Such degradation is associated with many environmental outcomes that may impact on human health, including a decrease in primary productivity, an increase in the number of invasive species, a decrease in the number of large trees, overall decrease in biodiversity, and an increase in dust product

This is particularly true in agricultural systems, where human activities to maximize the ecosystem service of food production often lead to the decline of other important ecosystem services.

Fourteen locations were sampled for bottom material and biota from March 1998 to April 2000. Concentrations of selenium in bottom material ranged from 0.6-5.0 μg/g. Concentrations of selenium in biota ranged from 0.5-18.3 μg/g, 23% of these samples e

Abstract:
AbstractAutomotive sector is crucial for the economic and social system. Conversely, it also plays an important role in the global emissions balance with strong consequences on the environment. Currently the Research world is engaged in the reduction of the emissions, especially in order to contrast the Climate Change and reduce toxicity on humans and the ecosystem. This study presents a comparative Life Cycle Assessment, Well-to-Wheel, between the most common technology used in the automotive sector, i.e. the traditional petrol Internal Combustion Engine and the full Battery Electric Vehicle. The different configurations have been analysed within 17 different impact categories in terms of climate change, human health, resourced depletion and ecosystems. The Well-to-Wheel approach allows to focus the attention on the use stage of the vehicle, considering the local effects due to the direct emissions in high density urban zones and it mitigates the dependence of usage hypotheses, different scenarios and intrinsic differences between the various models of cars in circulation.
