Indicator’s Weight Determination of Evaluating Reclamation’s Impact on Marine Resources

Article Preview

Abstract:

Although reclamation can increase land area, it decreases natural shoreline, coastal wetland and fishery resources. It remains a contradiction between the utilization of reclamation and protection of marine resources. The effective method to judge reclamation impact on marine resources is of great importance. Based on results of three rounds expert investigation, this paper established a system to make the judgement. Two steps were taken: using Delphi method to obtain the weight of qualitative and quantitive evaluation indicators, using SPSS statistical software to get reliability test results, which show that expert opinions are in well agreement. The indicator weights were finally gived.
