Anthem Press (Verlag)
978-1-78308-952-9 (ISBN)
Multicriteria analysis, or MCA, has been increasingly used in environmental decision-making to support the identification of suitable courses of action by integrating factual information with value-based information collected through stakeholder engagement. Multicriteria Analysis for Environmental Decision-Making provides an introduction to the key concepts of MCA and includes a series of case studies that illustrate the application of MCA to a variety of environmental decision-making problems ranging from protected area zoning to landfill siting, and from forest restoration to environmental impact assessment of tourism infrastructures. A compact reference that can be used by researchers, practitioners and planners/decision makers, Multicriteria Analysis for Environmental Decision-Making can also serve as a textbook for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in a broad range of curricula.
Davide Geneletti is associate professor of spatial planning at the University of Trento, Italy, specializing in impact assessment of projects, plans and policies; ecosystem services and urban green infrastructures; and multicriteria analysis. He is the editor-in-chief of the Journal of Environmental Assessment Policy and Management and deputy editor of the open-access journal, One Ecosystem.
