企业可持续发展评价指标体系的选定原则及构建框架

为了制定企业可持续发展的战略决策,须制定可持续发展的指标体系,并依据这一体系对数据和资料进行收集、整理和分析,从而确定可靠而有效的政策方针。文中论述了可持续发展指标体系的定义、选定标准、原则和可持续发展的评价指标体系,提出了压力-状态-响应框架模型以及不同层次的指标体系框架。该指标体系分为总体层、系统层、状态层、变量层和要素层五个等级。对于持续发展的表征指标及对目前发展的可持续性评估,还需要长时间和切合实际的探讨。     

Quantifying and Evaluating Ecosystem Health: A Case Study from Moreton Bay, Australia

As part of the program monitoring the ecosystem health of Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia, we developed a means for assessing ecosystem health that allows quantitative evaluation and spatial representations of the assessments. The management objectives for achieving ecosystem health were grouped into ecosystem objectives, water quality objectives, and human health objectives. For the first two groups, aspects of the ecosystem (e.g., trophic status) were identified, and an indicator was chosen for each aspect. Reference values for each indicator were derived from management objectives and compared with the mapped survey values. Subregions for which the indicator statistic was equal to or better than the assigned reference value are referred to as “compliant zones.” High-resolution surface maps were created from spatial predictions on a fine hexagonal grid for each of the indicators. Eight reporting subregions were established based on the depth and predicted residence times of the water. Within each reporting subregion, the proportion that was compliant was calculated. These results then were averaged to create an integrated ecosystem health index. The ratings by a team of ecosystem experts and the calculated ecosystem health indices had good correspondence, providing assurance that the approach was internally consistent, and that the management objectives covered the relevant biologic issues for the region. This method of calculating and mapping ecosystem health, relating it directly to management objectives, may have widespread applicability for ecosystem assessment.     

Assessment of Soil Erodibility Indices for Conservation Reserve Program Lands in Southwestern Kansas Using Satellite Imagery and GIS Techniques

The soil erodibility index (EI) of Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) lands, which was the major criterion for CRP enrollment, was assessed for six counties in southwestern Kansas using USGS seamless digital elevation model data and Geographical Informational System techniques. The proportion of land areas with EI values of 8 or lower was less than 1% of the entire study area and most of the land areas (72.5%) were concentrated on EI values between 8 and 24. Although land acreage with EI values of 24 or higher decreased dramatically, the proportion of CRP lands to the other land-use types did not change much from low to high EI levels. The soil EI and physical soil characteristics of the CRP lands were compared to those of other land-use types. In general, the mean EI values of the land-use types were strongly correlated with physical soil properties, including organic matter content, clay content, available water capacity, permeability, and texture. CRP lands were compared in detail with cropland in terms of their soil characteristics to infer the pivotal cause of the land transformation. Although there was no significant statistical difference in EI between cropland and CRP soils, soil texture, soil family, and permeability were statistically different between the two. Statistical analyses of these three variables showed that CRP soils had coarser texture and higher permeability on average than cropland soils, indicating that CRP lands in the study area are drier than cropland soils. Therefore, soil moisture characteristics, not necessarily soil erosion potential, might have been the key factor for CRP enrollment in the study area.

基于RS与GIS的毕节地区滑坡灾害危险性评价

基于遥感和地理信息系统技术,用空间主成分分析法构建评价指标体系,并用层次分析法确定评价指标权重,以滑坡危害最重的贵州省毕节地区为研究区,选取地层岩性、降水量、土地利用、坡度等9个滑坡孕险因子作为评价指标,对该研究区进行了滑坡灾害危险性评价。通过与研究区的历史滑坡灾害记录结果进行比较发现,评价结果与实际状况较为吻合,说明该方法能较有效地用于对区域滑坡灾害危险性的评价。

竹林关大柴沟大型泥石流的形成机理与发展趋势

通过对陕西省丹凤县竹林关镇大柴沟泥石流进行现场勘查分析,总结了泥石流的孕灾背景,揭示了泥石流的典型特征和基本物理力学参数,在此基础上,分别从泥石流的物质来源、形成环境、诱发条件等三大条件分析了泥石流的形成机理,归纳了大柴沟泥石流具有典型的滑坡激发性、周期暴发性、强烈致灾性等特点,对泥石流的危险性进行了现状分析和预测评价。结果表明:软硬相间的岩层和强烈的构造运动是造成岩体变形破碎的主要原因,为泥石流提供了丰富的物源,垂直高差较大、沟道狭窄为泥石流提供了良好的孕灾环境,百年一遇的暴雨是大柴沟泥石流形成的诱发条件,同时受暴雨影响,沟内产生多处浅表层滑坡堵塞沟道,为泥石流聚集了能量,以至形成规模更大、破坏性更强的泥石流。研究过程采用了实测计算与经验公式估算相结合的多种方法进行对比研究,也充分验证了经验公式的适用性。
