Dual criteria decisions [PDF]

Journal of Economic Psychology, 2014
The most popular models of decision making use a single criterion to evaluate projects or lotteries. However, decision makers may actually consider multiple criteria when evaluating projects. We consider a dual criteria model from psychology. This model integrates the familiar tradeoffs between risk and utility that economists traditionally assume ...

Characterization, occurrence, environmental behaviors, and risks of nanoplastics in the aquatic environment: Current status and future perspectives

Fundamental Research, 2021
Microplastics (MPs) are emerging contaminants that have attracted worldwide attention in recent years. Compared with MPs, nanoplastics (NPs) may exhibit greater toxicity and higher potential risks because of their unique physiochemical nanoscale ...

Development and evaluation of a Planktonic Integrity Index (PII) for Jingpo Lake, China

Journal of Limnology, 2019
A Planktonic Integrity Index (PII) for the China’s largest alpine barrier lake (Jingpo Lake) was developed to assess the water quality of Jingpo Lake by using phytoplankton and zooplankton metrics.

Chemical Compositions and Source Analysis of PM2.5 during Autumn and Winter in a Heavily Polluted City in China

Atmosphere, 2020
As one of the biggest cities in North China, Jinan has been suffering heavy air pollution in recent decades. To better characterize the ambient particulate matter in Jinan during heavy pollution periods, we collected daily PM2.5 (particulate matter with ...

A New Method for Ecological Risk Assessment of Combined Contaminated Soil

Toxics, 2023
Ecological risk assessment of combined polluted soil has been conducted mostly on the basis of the risk screening value (RSV) of a single pollutant. However, due to its defects, this method is not accurate enough.

Exploring HONO production from particulate nitrate photolysis in representative regions of China: characteristics, influencing factors, and environmental implications [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics
The production mechanism of atmospheric nitrous acid (HONO), an important precursor of the hydroxyl radical (OH), remains controversial. Few studies have explored the effects of particulate nitrate photolysis on HONO sources under different environment ...

Distribution and Characterization of Typical Antibiotics in Water Bodies of the Yellow River Estuary and Their Ecological Risks

Toxics, 2023
A total of 34 antibiotics from five major classes of antibiotics, including macrolides, sulfonamides, quinolones, tetracyclines and chloramphenicol, were considered as contaminants, considering the Yellow River Estuary as the study area. The distribution,

Criteria for virtual fibering [PDF]

, 2008
We prove that an irreducible 3-manifold whose fundamental group satisfies a certain group-theoretic property called RFRS is virtually fibered. As a corollary, we show that 3-dimensional reflection orbifolds and arithmetic hyperbolic orbifolds defined by ...

Classicality criteria

Journal of Mathematical Physics, 2002
We present two possible criteria quantifying the degree of classicality of an arbitrary (finite dimensional) dynamical system. The inputs for these criteria are the classical dynamical structure of the system together with the quantum and the classical data providing the two alternative descriptions of its initial time configuration.
