“…More food production, a marketable ES, reduces biodiversity and carbon sequestration. This fact has already been supported by other modeling studies in recent years across different ecosystems (Groot et al 2007, Parra-López et al 2008, Nelson et al 2009, Polasky et al 2011. The main factors that caused trade-offs in our simulation were biological interdependencies.…”

“…In addition, a spatially explicit integration of economic and environmental variables makes it possible to consider the effects of management and farm structural changes, such as shifts in the type of housed livestock that are kept, on ES provision. In recent years, a wide range of integrated modeling approaches has emerged to assess a variety of trade-offs in ES provision (Holman et al 2005, Groot et al 2007, Parra-López et al 2008, Polasky et al 2008, 2011, Nelson et al 2009, Tallis and Polasky 2009, Chisholm 2010, Osgathorpe et al 2011, Willemen et al 2012.…”

ABSTRACT. Mountain ecosystems provide a broad range of ecosystem services (ES). Trade-offs between different ES are an important aspect in the assessment of future sustainable land-use. Management of ES in mountain regions must confront the challenges of spatial and temporal heterogeneity, and interaction with structural changes in agriculture and forestry. Using a social-ecological modeling framework, we assess the relationships between forest and agricultural ES in a mountain region in Switzerland. Based on the concept of jointness in production, we evaluated trade-offs and synergies among food provision, biodiversity conservation, carbon sequestration, and protection against natural hazards. Results show that increasing the provision of a focal ES in a mountain region may result in alternating trade-offs and synergies, depending on the interaction of economic and technological interdependencies. Thus, management schemes aiming to increase the provision of one focal ES have to consider not only the technological or biological nature of interrelationships, but also the economic interdependencies among different ES. Trade-offs and synergies from these interactions strongly depend on the underlying structural and environmental conditions driven by socioeconomic and climatic developments.

“…Here we take a related approach starting with localized assumptions of individual landowner's utility that affects land use change/preservation decisions. Past studies have used similar assumptions in terrestrial applications (e.g., Parra-López et al, 2008). Our study is novel in its coastal land-marine application.…”

A major challenge in gauging long-term and cumulative impacts of fisheries management on coastal fishing communities is the lack of understanding of the interactions between changes in fish stocks and waterfront land uses. This study examines these interactions in the New Bedford/Fairhaven area using parcel level data and geographic information system (GIS) tools. Logistic regression models were used to assess the impact of changes in marine resource abundance on waterfront land uses. Although land-use decisions are influenced by many complex market and regulatory factors, our study detected a significant relationship between fish stock conditions and coastal land uses.

“…Because of the interrelationships among CAs and among ECs, ANP is used in some works (Partovi 2001(Partovi , 2006(Partovi , 2007Karsak et al 2002;Partovi and Corredoira 2002;Yoon et al 2006;Pal et al 2007;Raharjo et al 2008;Parra-López et al 2008). There are basically two types of ANP-QFD approaches: simple matrix manipulation and supermatrix approach (Raharjo et al 2008;Lee et al 2010a).…”

An important source of competitive advantage, survival and renewal for firms is the successful new product development (NPD). Quality function deployment (QFD) aims to facilitate the NPD process from product conceptualization to production requirements; however, conventional QFD has its shortcomings. Even though modified QFD models have been proposed in literature, a comprehensive model is necessary. In this paper, factors in each phase of the QFD is prepared first through literature review and interview with domain experts. Fuzzy Delphi method is adopted to select the critical factors, and fuzzy interpretive structural modeling is applied to determine the relationships among the critical factors. The results are then used to construct houses of quality for QFD, which is incorporated by fuzzy analytic network process. A case study of a thin film transistor liquid crystal display firm is carried out to verify the practicality of the proposed framework.
