Design and structure analysis of integrated environmental planning models
讨论了环境经济现象建模的新工具,提出卫星设计处理多学科模型,并用图论方法分析层次模型结构,以荷兰某区域的经济-休闲-环境模型为例。
Some new tools dealing with problems of modelling environmental-economic phenomena are discussed. A satellite design is suggested to deal with the multi-disciplinary nature of the models and to distinguish between mono- and interdisciplinary relationships. The hierarchical model structure can be analysed in terms of its stimulus-response relationships by making use of a graph-theoretic approach, which provides conditions for sign solvability of the model. The approach is illustrated by an economic-recreational-environmental model for a region in the Netherlands.
