ABSTRACT In the face of diverse and conflicting factors affecting emergency water supply (EWS) decisions, ensuring sufficient drinking provision for communities emerges as a critical intricate challenge. Compounding this complexity is presence vague imprecise data, complicating evaluation selection process. To tackle these challenges, study introduces an extended fuzzy multi-criteria group decision-making (FMCGDM) model, leveraging compromise solutions relative preference relations, specifically tailored EWS situations. The proposed model employs linguistic variables with multiple experts’ judgements to rate alternatives versus criteria assign weight criteria. By utilizing triangular numbers, effectively handles information imprecision, enabling nuanced evaluations distinguishing among potential alternatives. Employing relation, computes distance values between ideal or anti-ideal solutions, aiding in decision-making. Finally, practical application computational effectiveness are demonstrated through real-life case on Iran. results show that mobile treatment units packaged received highest score, placing first second order ranking, respectively, while existing distribution systems were deemed most inappropriate situation study.

ABSTRACT The purpose of this article is to evaluate the water company in Algeria (ADE) subscribers’ Willingness To Pay (WTP) for a better service offer. This study assessed WTP improved drinking department Souk-Ahras (Algeria), using contingent valuation survey data 5,342 households, with response rate 10.86% (greater than 10% each municipality's total number subscribers). Then, Probit and Tobit models were applied analyze determinants WTP. results show that majority respondents (62.84%) testified they not satisfied quality provided terms quantity distributed. research revealed an supply was approximately 16.18 Algerian dinar (DZD)/m3 (approximately 0.11 US$/m3) instead current tariff (6.3 DZD/m3–0.04 US$ /m3). With new tariff, average charge household around 1.37% monthly income.

Based on the DPSIR framework, this study constructed an evaluation index system to assess sustainable development levels of tourism eco-security (TESS-SDL) present in Chengdu-–Chongqing urban agglomeration and synthesized multi-dimensional analysis methods explore its spatiotemporal evolution characteristics driving factors provide important theoretical practical basis for promoting regional system. The results showed following: (1) From 2011 2021, TESS-SDL was generally at a medium level trend steady growth. Although gap between cities widening year by year, speed exceeded gap, coordinated TESS-SDL. (2) spatial spillover effect obvious; however, siphoning effects Chongqing Chengdu were strong, demonstration insufficient. (3) dynamic process shows strong self-locking effect. risk downward (lower sustainability) is greater than potential upward (higher significantly influenced neighboring cities. (4) In terms assessing factors, open-door green-development policies show positive facilitating effects, while influencing capacities information technology, economic development, are moving toward having negative effects; technological innovation has transitioned from negative.
