Assessment of Maize Drought Risk in Midwestern Jilin Province: A Comparative Analysis of TOPSIS and VIKOR Models

Drought is a major natural disaster that causes a reduction in rain-fed maize yield. Agricultural drought risk assessment is conducive to improving regional disaster management ability, thereby reducing food security risks and economic losses. Considering the complexity of risk assessment research, an increasing number of researchers are focusing on the multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method. However, the applicability of the MCDM method to agro-meteorological disaster risk assessments is not clear. Therefore, this study comprehensively evaluated hazard, exposure, vulnerability, and emergency response and recovery capability using the TOPSIS and VIKOR models to generate a maize drought risk map in mid-western Jilin Province and ranked the drought risk of each county. The results showed that: (1) maize drought risk in the middle and west of Jilin province showed an increasing trend. Spatially, the risk diminished from west to east. The drought risks faced by Tongyu, Changchun, and Dehui were more severe; (2) the evaluation results of the two models were verified using the yield reduction rate. The VIKOR model was found to be more suitable for agrometeorological drought risk assessments; (3) according to the damage degree of drought disaster to maize, the cluster analysis method was used to divide the study area into three sub-regions: safe, moderate drought, and severe drought. Combined with the characteristics of different regions, suggestions on disaster prevention and mitigation are proposed. The results of this study can provide a basis for formulating strategies to alleviate drought, reduce losses, and ensure the sustainable development of agriculture.

Multi‐criteria probabilistic dual hesitant fuzzy group decision making for supply chain finance credit risk assessments

AbstractSupply chain finance is important for resolving small and medium‐sized enterprise financing difficulties and optimizing supply chain capital flows. Therefore, supply chain finance credit risk assessments are key financing indicators for decision makers. However, most current supply chain finance credit risk assessment research has been based on traditional and subjective methods and has focused less on the actual decision‐making requirements. The TODIM method in a fuzzy environment has proven to be a useful tool for multi‐criteria decision‐making as it can better reflect the DMs' psychological characteristics. As probabilistic dual hesitant fuzzy sets can contain more original evaluation information and more comprehensively reflect the DM uncertainties, this paper first proposes a Hamming distance measure in a probabilistic dual hesitant fuzzy environment to compare the relationships between two probabilistic dual hesitant fuzzy elements and prove some of the properties. Then, to fully consider the DMs' risk preferences, a model is proposed to evaluate supply chain finance credit risk that extends the TODIM method to a probabilistic dual hesitant fuzzy environment based on cumulative prospect theory and the proposed Hamming distance. Finally, using improved credit risk assessment criteria, a practical case from Ping An Bank is given to demonstrate the proposed model's practicality, and a comparison given with the classical TODIM and the probabilistic hesitant fuzzy TODIM method to illustrate the effectiveness of the extended method.

Valuation of ecosystem damage induced by soil-groundwater pollution in an arid climate area: Framework, method and case study

Groundwater is an important source of water, even the only source in some arid areas. However, climate changing and ecosystem damage induced by pollution aggravate water resource crisis. The “polluter pays” principle is deeply rooted in efforts to manage the polluted sites, particularly in the soil-groundwater environment. Unfortunately, there is no ecosystem damage compensation mechanism generally accepted by all stakeholders. In this study, we establish an assessment framework and valuation methods for ecosystem damage induced by soil-groundwater pollution in an arid climate area based on a “pollution source → target (soil-groundwater) → receptor (humans, animals, and plants) → damages → stakeholders (human society and ecosystem)” model that is usually applied in groundwater risk assessment research. Five economic loss are included in the valuation methods: (1) human health loss, (2) emergency disposal cost, (3) direct economic loss, (4) ecological restoration cost, and (5) ecosystem services loss. We apply the framework to a case study in an arid climate area, northwest China and calculate the total economic loss from ecosystem damage in the case study at 12.6 million yuan. The largest proportion of the total loss was the ecological restoration cost (85.6%), followed by the emergency disposal cost (11.2%), and finally ecosystem services loss (3.2%). Valuation of ecosystem damage from environmental pollution is essentially a socioeconomic issue. This study supplies a new framework and methods for valuing ecosystem damage induced by pollution, and offers suggestions for environmental management to reduce the damage caused by soil-groundwater pollution to health and ecosystems.

A Study on Risk Measurement of Logistics in International Trade: A Case Study of the RCEP Countries

International trade can be severely disrupted by failures in international logistics processes. Therefore, an understanding of international logistics risk is imperative for the smooth operation of international trade, systematically studying the causes, responsible parties, and possible consequences of international logistics risk. On this basis, international logistics risk is classified from the perspective of the consequences caused by logistics risk, combined with the influencing factors and types of risk, establishing the index system and evaluation model of international logistics risk; Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation (FCE) and Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) methods were used to evaluate international logistics risk, and the international logistics risk in the international trade of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) is also discussed. The results show that generally, international logistics risks are mainly logistics loss risk, logistics cost risk, and logistics timeliness risk. The logistics risks in the transaction with RCEP mainly include logistics loss risk, logistics cost risk, logistics timeliness risk, environmental risk, and logistics information risk. The risk causes include five risks: general causes, accidents, bankruptcy or ultra vires of logistics companies, customs clearance problems, and cargo characteristics. By establishing the international logistics risk measurement index system, it can hopefully play a preventive and guiding role in the research of international logistics risk assessment and the international logistics risk management of RCEP enterprises.

Do adolescent risk assessment tools capture self-reported reasons for desistance? An examination of the content validity of protective factors

ABSTRACT This study used a novel approach to assess the content validity of three adolescent risk assessment tools: the Structured Assessment of Violence Risk in Youth (SAVRY; Borum et al., 2006), the Structured Assessment of Protective Factors for Violence Risk – Youth Version (SAPROF-YV; de Vries Robbé et al., 2015), and the Short-Term Assessment of Risk and Treatability: Adolescent Version (START:AV; Viljoen et al., 2014). In-person interviews and online surveys were conducted with people with a history of adolescent offending (n = 103), which included open-ended questions about their desistance from offending, followed by direct questions based on the tools’ protective factors. Responses were coded using directed content analyses based on the tools’ item definitions. In open-ended questions, across participants all items were mentioned, and all items were rated as important by at least some participants. Only a few additional themes emerged that were not captured by the tools. In addition, participants primarily discussed the presence of protective factors rather than the removal of risk factors, suggesting they represent distinct constructs. Overall the findings support the content validity of the SAVRY, SAPROF-YV, and START:AV protective factors, and highlight the value of perspectives from people with lived experience in risk assessment research.

Factors affecting marine ranching risk in China and their hierarchical relationships based on DEMATEL, ISM, and BN

Marine ranching have attracted wide attention in the marine fishery in recent years owing to numerous benefits for sustainable development. However, existing research efforts on marine ranching risk management are very limited, and no prior in-depth research has focused on studying the risk interdependencies in marine ranching from the perspectives of multiple risks. This paper begins by identifying 29 marine ranching risks using a systematic literature review and experts propose. Next, the cause-effect diagram and hierarchical network model of marine ranching are obtained using the combined DEMATEL - ISM method, which clearly confirms the interdependent relationships among various risk factors. It also identifies the most critical factors, which enables the operators of the marine ranching to make decisions to reduce risks. Then the hierarchical network model is mapped to a BN and expert judgments are further transformed into the conditional probability distribution by software Netica, in order to quantify the strength of the interdependent relationships among the marine ranching risk system, and determine main paths resulting in risk occurrence. According to the research results, the risk occurrence probability of marine ranching is high, with a probability of 85.1%，and the most approximate cause path leading to the occurrence of risk are determined—namely, X 27 (Long construction cycle) → X 10 (Financing difficulties) → X 15 (Safety hazards) → X 11 (Investment return risk) → Y(Marine ranching risk) and X 9 (Lack of technical talent) → X 8 (Monitoring failure) → X 2 (Habitat destruction) → X 26 (Large preinvestment) → X 10 → X 15 → X 11 (Investment return risk) → Y. Through the established risk analysis model, the key risk factors in the implementation process of marine ranching can be obtained, which is helpful for in-depth understanding of the risk information of marine ranching and more effective risk management of marine ranching. • The risk factors of marine ranching in China are identified. • DEMATEL, ISM and BN are used in the research of risk assessment of marine ranching. • The hierarchical relationship of risk factors of marine ranching is figured out. • The most approximate cause path leading to the occurrence of risk is determined.

Dynamic Risk-Warning of Center Diaphragm and Bench Composite Method During Construction

During the construction of subway tunnels, safety issues should not be ignored, so it is necessary to prevent and resolve the risk in time and accurately. However, there are some shortcomings in the research of risk assessment, such as the subjectivity of initial data or the lack of scientific evaluation model, in order to solve the problem, this paper relies on the Changping section of the Guanhui Intercity Metro, in order to establish a dynamic risk-warning model for the construction process of subway tunnel with the CD-Bench composite method. First, a monitoring plan was equationted according to the specification requirements and the actual situation of the project, and based on this, an evaluation index system was established from five aspects: geological and support conditions, crown settlement, clearance convergence, and ground settlement and building settlement. Secondly, according to the established risk evaluation standards, the risk level of the index is determined by introducing extension theory and determining the combined weight of the index based on the distance function. Finally, feedback the corresponding risk-warning signals and take control measures. Through the application analysis shows that the model can alarm the risks during the tunnel construction process directly and timely, so the model is feasible and practical, and it is worthy of popularization and application in similar projects.

Infrastructure-Based Pedestrian Risk Tagging Methodology to Support AV Risk Assessment

Safety is paramount in AV deployment. Traditionally, AV safety is incorporated during development by identifying the failure of vehicular components using risk and scenarios-based validation approaches with risk indicators. The main challenge of having a comprehensive risk assessment for AV safety is to include all potential complex environments that could occur in real-time, which is more critical for higher AV automation levels. Real-world real-time risk assessment research addresses this shortcoming by providing an advanced warning to the AV during deployment either at the vehicle level or at the infrastructure level. This paper proposes a risk tagging methodology to quantitatively risk tag the severity rating of the real-world environment for real-time risk assessment of AV using the existing roadside infrastructure. The proposed methodology - Spatial-Temporal Risk Estimation Ensemble Technique (STREET), provides advanced risk indicators in the form of pedestrian risk tag figure and time to collision value to the AV. This paper includes the evaluation of STREET, tested on four events over a pre-defined uncontrolled traffic scene from the infrastructure and validated using ground truth and heatmap of pedestrian occurrence. This methodology includes three different algorithms developed to emphasize different events depending on the AV risk and safety management strategy. The STREET reduces the bandwidth needed compared to traditional approaches of streaming video images for lightweight integration of AV risk assessment. The outcome of the pedestrian risk tag from STREET can be used as a severity rating for the existing real-time risk assessment of AV via cooperative mode.

The results show that: (1) the number of ecological risk assessment paper have been increasing since 1990, while the domestic publications’ growth rate was faster than that of foreign ones. (2) The scientific research cooperation between literature scholars and research institutions have basically formed a cooperative network system. The Chinese Academy of Sciences had a leading position in the world in terms of publication volume. (3) The analysis of keywords and keyword clustering shows that ERA had long-term focusing points on aquatic environment, heavy metals and organic contaminant. (4) The focus of research at home and abroad was high coincidence and synchronization. Both domestic and foreign researches have shifted from water environment to soil and water environment and urban environment, and extended to source analysis and risk management. However, the domestic research pays more attention to the study of risk sources and quality criterion, while foreign researches are more closely related to biology, and pay more attention to international topics. Inspired by the above, domestic ecological risk assessment research needs to pay attention to: enhance the diversification and internationalization of research objects, test and update all kinds of quality criterion, build a relatively unified ecological risk assessment framework and indicator system, and scientifically evaluate the sustainable development level and green development potential of the region. 参考文献 相似文献 引证文献

Rethinking of Environmental Health Risks: A Systematic Approach of Physical-Social Health Vulnerability Assessment on Heavy-Metal Exposure through Soil and Vegetables.

In the field of environmental health risk assessment and management research, heavy metals in soil are a constant focus, largely because of mining and metallurgical activities, and other manufacturing or producing. However, systematic vulnerability, and combined research of social and physical vulnerability of the crowd, have received less attention in the research literature of environmental health risk assessment. For this reason, tentative design modelling for comprehensive environmental health vulnerability, which includes the index of physical and social vulnerability, was conducted here. On the basis of experimental data of heavy-metal pollution in soil and vegetables, and population and societal survey data in Daye, China, the physical, social, and comprehensive environmental health vulnerabilities of the area were analyzed, with each village as an evaluation unit. First, the polluted and reference areas were selected. Random sampling sites were distributed in the farmland of the villages in these two areas, with two sampling sites per village. Then, 204 vegetable samples were directly collected from the farmland from which the soil samples had been collected, composed of seven kinds of vegetables: cowpea, water spinach, amaranth, sweet potato leaves, tomato, eggplant, and pepper. Moreover, 400 questionnaires were given to the local residents in these corresponding villages, and 389 valid responses were obtained. The results indicated that (1) the average physical vulnerability values of the population in the polluted and reference areas were 3.99 and 1.00, respectively; (2) the village of Weiwang (WW) had the highest physical vulnerability of 8.55; (3) vegetable intake is exposure that should be paid more attention, as it contributes more than 90% to physical vulnerability among the exposure pathways; (4) arsenic and cadmium should be the priority pollutants, with average physical vulnerability value contributions of 63.9% and 17.0%, respectively; (5) according to the social vulnerability assessment, the village of Luoqiao (LQ) had the highest social vulnerability (0.77); (6) for comprehensive environmental health vulnerability, five villages near mining activities and two villages far from mine-affected area had high physical and social vulnerability, and are the urgent areas for environmental risk management. In order to promote environmental risk management, it is necessary to prioritize identifying vulnerable populations in the village-scale dimension as an innovative discovery.

The Role of Gut Microbiota and Genetic Susceptibility in the Pathogenesis of Pancreatitis.

Pancreatitis is one of the most common inflammatory diseases of the pancreas caused by autodigestion induced by excessive premature protease activation. However, recognition of novel pathophysiological mechanisms remains a still challenge. Both genetic and environmental factors contribute to the pathogenesis of pancreatitis, and the gut microbiota is a potential source of an environmental effect. In recent years, several new frontiers in gut microbiota and genetic risk assessment research have emerged and improved the understanding of the disease. These investigations showed that the disease progression of pancreatitis could be regulated by the gut microbiome, either through a translocation influence or in a host immune response manner. Meanwhile, the onset of the disease is also associated with the heritage of a pathogenic mutation, and the disease progression could be modified by genetic risk factors. In this review, we focused on the recent advances in the role of gut microbiota in the pathogenesis of pancreatitis, and the genetic susceptibility in pancreatitis.

Toxic effects of fipronil and its metabolites on PC12 cell metabolism

Fipronil and its metabolites (fipronil sulfone, fipronil sulfide and fipronil desulfinyl) adversely affect the environment and human health. Targeted metabolomics and lipidomics based on ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) was used to analyse the alterations of glycerophospholipids and amino acids after exposure to fipronil and its metabolites at dosages of 0.5, 12.5 and 50 μM for 72 h and to evaluate their different toxic effects. Results showed that fipronil sulfone and fipronil desulfinyl are more toxic than their parent compound, with fipronil desulfinyl as the most toxic and fipronil sulfide as the least toxic. Fipronil and its metabolites affected the metabolism of PC18:1/16:0, PI18:0/20:4, arginine, leucine and tyrosine and the “phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan biosynthesis” pathway, indicating their possible inducing role in cellular macromolecule damage, nerve signal transmission disturbance and energy metabolism disruption caused by oxidative stress. Importantly, fipronil sulfone and fipronil desulfinyl more strongly influenced lipid and amino acid metabolism, mainly reflected in the number of changed glycerophospholipids and differential metabolites associated with oxidative stress, including PS18:0/20:4, glutamate, phenylalanine and histidine for fipronil sulfone and PS18:0/20:4, glutamate, phenylalanine, serine and aspartic acid for fipronil desulfinyl. Therefore, the higher toxicity of fipronil desulfinyl and fipronil sulfone may be also related to oxidative stress. This study provides implications for risk assessment and toxic mechanism research on fipronil and its metabolites.

Elder Abuse Vulnerability and Risk Factors: Is Financial Abuse Different From Other Subtypes?

Elder abuse (EA) affects one in six older adults, and financial EA, a common subtype, severely impacts victims and society. Understanding victim vulnerability and perpetrator risk factors is essential to EA prevention and management. The limited existing evidence about these factors in relation to EA types suggests that financial EA is different. In a cross-sectional quantitative analysis of secondary data (N = 1,238), we investigated EA vulnerability and risk factors, and victim–perpetrator family relationship, with respect to different EA types (financial only, financial co-occurring with other types, and nonfinancial abuse). Financial abuse-only cases had the lowest prevalence of vulnerability and risk factors. Most of these factors, and a familial relationship, were significantly more common in cases involving other EA types. Findings indicate that financial abuse, occurring in isolation, is distinct from other EA types. Risk assessment and future research should consider financial abuse separately to other EA forms.

Predicting construction time and cost of tunnels using Markov chain model considering opinions of experts

The impact of uncertainty on decision-making is increasingly prioritized, especially for large geotechnical projects such as tunnels. In this article, the effects of geological/geotechnical uncertainties in tunnel construction time and costs were reduced. The forecasting of geological/geotechnical conditions in a tunnel project was based on the Markov chain. To accessing the more accurate input data of the Markov chain and estimate the construction time and cost required for tunnel construction, tunneling experts were interviewed through a questionnaire. Also, to assess the updating effect on obtained outcomes during the tunnel construction, the model was updated for one time. Finally, comparing the predicted results with the actual results, the effects of the interviewing and updating process were investigated. According to the results, the uncertainties in the predictions were found to be reduced significantly. Lastly, this research can provide guidance or reference for the evaluation and decision-making of complex systems engineering problems, and indicate a direction for further research of risk assessment and decision-making issues.

The Risk Assessment and Clinical Research of Bile Duct Injury After Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization for Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

PurposeTo retrospectively evaluate the risk factors and the clinical outcomes of bile duct injury after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and to evaluate factors that aid clinical detection and subsequent treatment of the injured bile duct.Materials and MethodsAll patients undergoing TACE for HCC were retrospectively reviewed for identification of bile duct injury. The clinical spectrum of all the patients analyzed including patients’ demographics, laboratory data, radiologic imaging and mode of treatment.ResultsFrom January 2015 to December 2017, a total of 21 patients (4.3%) out of 483 patients with 693 TACE procedures were identified to have bile duct injury at our single institution. There were 17 males and 4 females, with a mean age of 59.8±11.6 years (range 34–84). About 14.3% (3/21) patients show the high-density shadow around the bile duct wall in one week non-enhanced CT, and 76.2% (16/21) cases ALP>200 U/L, all these patients showed bile duct injury on the subsequent follow-up CT. Post-TACE follow-up blood biochemistry showed that alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) increased significantly compared with pre-TACE level. The incidence of various types of bile duct injuries on CT was intrahepatic bile duct dilatation (57.1%), biloma (25.7%) and hepatic hilar biliary strictures (17.1%), respectively. Patients with prior hepatectomy as well as proximal arterial chemoembolization carried a higher risk of post-TACE bile duct injury in terms of microvascular damage to the peribiliary capillary plexus.ConclusionBile duct injury complicating TACE is not caused by a single factor, but by a variety of factors, and is closely related to the microvascular compromise of the bile ducts and subsequent chronic biliary infection. Lipiodol deposited along the bile duct wall and the sharp rise of ALP>200 U/L in one week after TACE can predict bile duct injury and early intervention may prevent the occurrence of serious complications. The probability of bile duct injury in patients with prior hepatectomy and proximal arterial chemoembolization increases significantly.

Paternal Risk and Protective Factors for Endangerment of Child Well-Being and their Consideration in the Risk Inventories Used Throughout Germany

Paternal Risk and Protective Factors for Endangerment of Child Well-Being and their Consideration in the Risk Inventories Used Throughout Germany In view of the current family and role models, paternal risk and protective factors can have a significant impact on the risk of violence within a family and should therefore - in addition to the factors on the part of the mother, the child and the closer or other family systems - be taken into consideration when estimating the endangerment of child well-being. In this article we explore which empirical findings on paternal risk and protective factors for abuse, neglect and sexual abuse (sexual violence) in childhood and adolescence were published in international research literature from 1980 to 2019. Seventeen risk factors and four protective factors could be identified, which in 33 quantitative original studies showed a risk-increasing or a buffering influence on violence experiences in families on the part of the father. In addition, the risk inventories used in practice in Germany were analyzed with regard to the paternal risk and protective factors, in order to be able to illustrate the application of the empirically identified factors in early intervention, youth welfare and health care. The article used results from a benchmark survey on risk inventories from 2009. These results were compared with current findings from 2018 as part of a research update. In 2009, 67 % of the instruments "often" contained items on the father, while this was found for 12 % of the instruments in 2018. At the same time, in 2018, 53 % of the risk inventories were "often" asked about custodians, parents or main caregivers. The article thus reflects developments in research and practice in risk assessment for child well-being, in which especially the fathers, who unlike the mothers are often not explicitly addressed during screenings and interventions for families with psychosocial problems, are taken into consideration. The knowledge about the influence of the fathers can feed into the preventive interventions in early interventions and complement them meaningfully.
