“…Because the goal of this study is selection of de-desertification optimal alternatives on the basis of a set of effective criteria, PROMETHEE II, with the ability of separated alternatives complete ranking, has been used (Chou et al, 2004). This method is effective and compatible in where numerous alternatives should be assessed based on quantitatively, qualitatively and often contradictory criteria (Albadavi et al, 2007).…”

“…So the goal of this study, due to the limitation of inputs, is assessment of de-desertification alternatives in order to achieve the optimal alternatives in the context of sustainable management of desert area. In order to achieve this goal in the context of Multiple Attribute Decision Making models, Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluation (PROMETHEE) that is one of the most important (Chou et al, 2004) and understandable (Pomerol and Romero, 2000) methods of Multiple Attribute Decision Making for ranking of dedesertification alternatives, was considered. Facility, clarity and stability of results are some of advantages of PROMETHEE method.…”

According to the extent of damage, various effects and complexity of desertification process, selecting appropriate alternatives considering all effective desertification criterions is one of the main concerns of Iran in the field of natural resources. This can be effective in controlling, reclamation of disturbed lands and avoiding destruction areas at desertification risk. This paper tries to provide a systematic and optimal alternatives in a group decision-making model. For this aim, PROMETHEE II method was used for ranking desertification alternatives. At the first in the framework of Multiple Attribute Decision-making (MADM), normalized decision matrix was provided by Delphi model. Then, to ease and accuracy in estimating the criteria preference and alternatives priority, the normalized decision matrix data were entered in Visual PROMETHEE software. Based on the results, the alternatives of prevention of unsuitable land use changes (A18), vegetation cover development and reclamation (A23) and modification of ground water harvesting (A31) with pure out ranking progress of =0.3660, 0.1909 and -0.0887 were selected as the main combating desertification altarnative in the study area, respectively. Therefore, it is suggested that the obtained results and ranking should be considered in projects of controlling and reducing the effects of desertification and rehabilitatyion of degraded lands plans.

“…The assumption that there is no interdependence among the sub-criteria should be firmly emphasised in determining the prospective upper-level criterion. AHP incorporates the evaluations of all the decision-makers into a final decision (Javalgi, Armacost & Husseini, 1989;Forman & Peniwati, 1998;Chou, Lin, Lin, Chou & Huang, 2004;Chang, Wu, Lin & Chen, 2007;Wu, Shih & Chan, 2008), without having to elicit their utility functions on subjective and objective criteria by pair-wise comparisons of the alternatives (Saaty, 1990;Lipovetsky, 1996;Saaty, 2000;Altuzarra, Maria, Jimenez & Salvador, 2007). The AHP framework is constructed in the form of a matrix, and a local priority vector may be derived as an estimate of relative importance associated with the elements (or components) under comparison by solving the following equations:…”

A large-scale floodplain delineation algorithm is applied to identify potentially inundated areas at the basin scale. The model, which mainly uses a digital elevation model (DEM) and design flood peak discharge at the outlet as input data, is implemented within a geographic information system (GIS). It implements a preliminary GIS-based terrain analysis framework for estimating the stream network, surface flow direction and drainage grids, while the core algorithm implements an automated fluvial cross-section extraction for discharge and flow height estimation. The delineation is then implemented by filtering the floodplain cells as those cells whose elevation is lower than the corresponding channel flow height. The proposed 'hydrogeomorphic floodplain', obtained on the Tiber River basin (approx. 17 000 km ) avec la reconnaissance topographique à 90 m de résolution mondiale par le radar de la navette spatiale de la NASA (SRTM) est comparée aux cartes officielles des inondations de l'Autorité du bassin du fleuve Tibre. L'étude de cas présentée montre la possibilité d'utiliser un algorithme de SIG automatisé et les données de télédétection largement disponibles pour l'identification préalable de l'empreinte des plaines inondables à l'échelle mondiale.
