The numeric weighting of environmental interactions / J.H. Ross.: En66-1/10E-PDF

"This paper sets forth a numeric methodology that uses the technique of non-metric multidimensional scaling to determine interval measures of the importance of environmental component interdependencies and then combines these to yield numeric indices of environmental impact. The proposed methodology is applied to a real-world environmental impact assessment project. The results are found to be in very close agreement with those of a study group charged with performing the same task by conventional methods of impact assessment"--Abstract.
