Ecosystem-based management (EBM) is promoted as the solution for sustainable use. An ecosystem-wide assessment methodology is therefore required. In this paper, we present an approach to assess the risk to ecosystem components from human activities common to marine and coastal ecosystems. We build on: (i) a linkage framework that describes how human activities can impact the ecosystem through pressures, and (ii) a qualitative expert judgement assessment of impact chains describing the exposure and sensitivity of ecological components to those activities. Using case study examples applied at European regional sea scale, we evaluate the risk of an adverse ecological impact from current human activities to a suite of ecological components and, once impacted, the time required for recovery to pre-impact conditions should those activities subside. Grouping impact chains by sectors, pressure type, or ecological components enabled impact risks and recovery times to be identified, supporting resource managers in their efforts to prioritize threats for management, identify most at-risk components, and generate time frames for ecosystem recovery.

A robust optimization model for sustainable and resilient closed-loop supply chain network design considering conditional value at risk
Lotfi, Reza; Mehrjerdi, Yahia Zare; Pishvaee, Mir Saman; Sadeghieh, Ahmad; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm (2021-06-01)
One of the challenges facing supply chain designers is designing a sustainable and resilient supply chain network. The present study considers a closed-loop supply chain by taking into account sustainability, resilience, robustness, and risk aversion for the first time. The study suggests a two-stage mixed-integer linear programming model for the problem. Further, the robust counterpart model is used to handle uncertainties. Furthermore, conditional value at risk criterion in the model is considered in orde...
A new fuzzy multi-criteria framework for measuring sustainability performance of a supply chain
Erol, Ismail; Sencer, Safiye; Sarı, Ramazan (2011-04-15)
Sustainable supply chain performance measurement is aimed at addressing environmental, social and economic aspects of sustainable supply chain management. It can be argued that it is not easy to reduce all dimensions of sustainable supply chain to a single unit. Then, the issue is that all valuations should somehow be reducible to a single one-dimensional standard. Multi-criteria evaluation introduces a framework to remedy this issue. As a consequence, multi-criteria evaluation seems to supply a proper and ...
A SYSTEM DYNAMICS MODEL TO STUDY THE IMPORTANCE OF INFRASTRUCTURE FACILITIES ON QUALITY OF PRIMARY EDUCATION SYSTEM IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES
Pedamallu, Chandra Sekhar; Ozdamar, Linet; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm; Kropat, Erik (2010-02-04)
The system dynamics approach is a holistic way of solving problems in real-time scenarios. This is a powerful methodology and computer simulation modeling technique for framing, analyzing, and discussing complex issues and problems. System dynamics modeling and simulation is often the background of a systemic thinking approach and has become a management and organizational development paradigm. This paper proposes a system dynamics approach for study the importance of infrastructure facilities on quality of...
A Business process performance measure definition system supported by information technologies
Alpay Koç, Nurcan; Köksal, Gülser; Department of Industrial Engineering (2013)
There is a growing interest and research on improvement of business processes as an essential part of effective quality management. Process improvement is possible with measurement and analysis of the process performance. Process performance measurement has been studied to a certain extend in the literature, and many different approaches have been developed such as Sink-Tuttle Model, Performance Measurement Matrix, SMART Pyramid, Balanced Scorecard Approach, Critical Few Method, and Performance Prism Framew...
An Exploratory Study on Causes and Impacts of Variation Orders in Public-Private Partnership Projects
Ejder, Kıvanç Umut; Dikmen Toker, İrem; Birgönül, Mustafa Talat; Department of Civil Engineering (2022-2)
Variation is an inevitable and inherent factor in public-private partnerships (PPP) projects which are a result of the extensive contract duration and the dynamic environment together with a large number of stakeholders. It is common in all kinds of PPP projects and determines the time limits and projected budget of the projects. For the social and financial viability of the project, it is important to be aware of these variations and their consequences that occur during the project life cycle. One of the m...
