About this book
- Natural resources has been an application in numerous Operations Research papers; however, there have been few, if any, books that organizes and discusses the OR models in this area
- First systematic handbook treatment of quantitative models applied to natural resource problems
- A handbook that fills a gaping hole in the international fields of natural resources and environmental engineering
Operations research management science approaches have helped people for the last 40 years to understand the complex functioning of the systems based upon natural resources, as well as to manage natural resources in the most efficient manner.
The areas usually viewed within the natural resources field are: agriculture, fisheries, forestry, and mining and water resources.
All of these areas share the common problem of optimally allocating scarcity over a period of time. The scale of time or length of the planning horizon differs from one area to another.
But in all the cases, the critical issue is to obtain an efficient use of the resource along its planned time horizon.
Andrés Weintraub is the very top person in Natural Resource research. He has selected co-editors who are at the top of the sub-fields in natural resources: agriculture, fisheries, forestry, and mining.
The book covers these areas with contributions from researchers on, among others, modeling natural rese
