A few years ago Newell reworked classical traffic wave theory into "A simplified theory of kinematic waves in highway traffic" (Newell, 1993a and Newell, 1993b). The simplifications - use of cumulative count curves instead of flows for most of the calculations and a triangular flow-density...

This study tries to develop a Korea highway safety evaluation proto type model for quantified safety evaluation. We develop a base model and crash modification factors (CMFs) through reviewing the procedures and methodologies in <italic>Highway Safety Manual</italic>. At the same time, we try to carefully...

A watershed based model, the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), along with transfer coefficients is used to assess alternative principles of allocating nutrient load reduction in the Raccoon River watershed in central Iowa. Four principles are examined for their cost-effectiveness and...

A watershed-based modeling system is developed to assess alternative nutrient abatement policies, including fertilizer taxes, application caps, and uniform reductions. A microeconometric model of nutrient use is estimated using farm-level data, prices, and spatially detailed soil and land...
