“…Another system is CESER (countermeasures: environmental and socio‐economic consequences/responses, a long‐term evaluation) (Salt and Rafferty, ), which is aimed to the long‐term management of radioactively contaminated land resources. In addition, another is RESTORE (restoration strategies for radioactive contaminated ecosystems) (Van Der Perk et al ., ), an environmental CDSS based on models and on GIS platform, in order to assess and direct the use of countermeasures to reduce radiation dose to humans from terrestrial pathways, but not containing provisions to evaluate and rank alternative countermeasures. FORECO (forest ecosystems: classification of restoration options considering dose reduction, long‐term ecological quality and economic factors) is another system, which has two CDSS: FORIA and FORCLAS (Rafferty, ).…”

The aim of this paper is to highlight the role of the Decision Support System within the field of multi-criteria decision aid (MCDA). The MCDA tools have been incorporated into systems to create Multi-Criteria Decision Support Systems (MCDSSs). In our literature review, we noticed that more than 100 papers have been written over a 20-year period in which MCDSS was used as a decision-making tool. The present paper describes some real applications of MCDSS in different fields, harmoniously combined with decision-making methods such as analytic hierarchy process, Utility Additive, and Goal Programming. The present study proposes an integrative MCDSS evaluation through guidance on the tools most useful for a specific user with a particular decision problem.

Sous sa forme la plus simple, il permet une évaluation de Kd L en connaissant les teneurs en potassium et en argiles et la capacité d'échange cationique du sol.…”

“…The PCRaster language, for instance, provides a means to write models for other fields of hydrology and geomorphology (Van Deursen and Kwadijk, 1993;Eleveld, 1999;De Roo et al, 2000), and fields such as radio ecology (Van der Perk et al, 2000), plant ecology (Van Deursen and Heil, 1993;Kessel, 1999), ornithology (Van Langevelde, 2000 and veterinary science (Brama et al, 2000). Development of distributed models in PCRaster allows integrated modelling of (sub-) systems of the environment.…”

Abstract:An evaluation is made of the suitability of programming languages for hydrological modellers to create distributed, process-based hydrological models. Both system programming languages and high-level environmental modelling languages are evaluated based on a list of requirements for the optimal programming language for such models. This is illustrated with a case study, implemented using the PCRaster environmental modelling language to create a distributed, process-based hydrological model based on the concepts of KINEROS-EUROSEM. The main conclusion is that system programming languages are not ideal for hydrologists who are not computer programmers because the level of thinking of these languages is too strongly related to specialized computer science. A higher level environmental modelling language is better in the sense that it operates at the conceptual level of the hydrologist. This is because it contains operators that identify hydrological processes that operate on hydrological entities, such as two-dimensional maps, three-dimensional blocks and time-series. The case study illustrates the advantages of using an environmental modelling language as compared with system programming languages in fulfilling requirements on the level of thinking applied in the language, the reusability of the program code, the lack of technical details in the program, a short model development time and learnability. The study shows that environmental modelling languages are equally good as system programming languages in minimizing programming errors, but are worse in generic application and performance. It is expected that environmental modelling languages will be used in future mainly for development of new models that can be tailored to modelling aims and the field data available.
