Digitized edition from print [produced by Environment and Climate Change Canada]. Includes bibliographical references. "This paper is concerned with methodologies designed to identify and estimate the relative degree of environmental disruption which may accrue to the environmental system as a result of the adoption of alternative development options. It utilizes a matrix powering technique adapted from network analysis to aid in the identification of environmental interdependencies of up to the Nth order, and provides a method of identifying interrelationships which may have been previously unperceived. The methodology presented here is not meant to be regarded as the final answer to the question of environmental assessment prediction, but merely as a step towards the evolution of a set of techniques which will permit a more accurate and useful definition, of alternate environmental systems"--Abstract, page vi.
