Better environmental decision making - Recent progress and future trends.

Pollard, Simon J. T.; Davies, Gareth J.; Coley, F. J. S.; Lemon, Mark (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2008-08-01)

Recent trends in risk-based decision making are reviewed in relation to novel developments in comparative risk analysis, strategic risk analysis, weight of evidence frameworks, and participative decision making. Delivery ...
Carbon Brainprint Case Study: intelligent buildings

Parsons, David J.; Chatterton, Julia C.; Clements-Croome, Derek; Elmualim, Abbas; Darby, Howard; Yearly, Tom; Davies, Gareth J. (2011-07-31)

It is estimated that non-domestic buildings were responsible for 18% of UK total greenhousegas emissions (582 Mt CO2e/year) in 2010. Of non-domestic building emissions, 34%(36 Mt CO2e/year) was due to lighting, office ...
Carbon brainprint – An estimate of the intellectual contribution of research institutions to reducing greenhouse gas emissions

Chatteron, Julia C.; Parsons, David J.; Nicholls, John R.; Longhurst, Philip J.; Bernon, Mike; Palmer, Andrew; Brennan, Feargal P.; Kolios, Athanasios; Wilson, Ian; Ishiyama, Edward; Clements-Croome, Derek; Elmualim, Abbas; Darby, Howard; Yearly, Tom; Davies, Gareth J. (Elsevier, 2015-05-07)

Research and innovation have considerable, currently unquantified potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by, for example, increasing energy efficiency. Furthermore, the process of knowledge transfer in itself can ...
Evidence and belief in regulatory decisions - Incorporating expected utility into decision modelling

Li, J.; Davies, Gareth J.; Kendall, Graham; Soane, Emma; Bai, R.; Rocks, Sophie A.; Pollard, Simon J. T. (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2012-12-31)

Recent changes in the assessment and management of risks has had the effect that greater importance has been placed on relationships between individuals and within groups to inform decision making. In this paper, we ...
Optimising risk reduction: An expected utility approach for marginal risk reduction during regulatory decision making

Li, Jiawei W.; Pollard, Simon J. T.; Kendall, Graham; Soane, Emma; Davies, Gareth J. (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2009-11-30)

In practice, risk and uncertainty are essentially unavoidable in many regulation processes. Regulators frequently face a risk-benefit trade-off since zero risk is neither practicable nor affordable. Although it is accepted ...
Regulators as 'agents': power and personality in risk regulation and a role for agent-based simulation

Davies, Gareth J.; Kendall, Graham; Soane, Emma; Li, Jin; Charnley, Fiona; Pollard, Simon J. T. (Taylor & Francis, 2010-12-31)

We critically examine how evidence and knowledge are brokered between the various actors (agents) in regulatory decisions on risk. Following a precis of context and regulatory process, we explore the role power and ...
Regulators as agents: modelling personality and power as evidence is brokered to support decisions on environmental risk

Davies, Gareth J.; Kendall, Graham; Soane, Emma; Li, J.; Rocks, Sophie A.; Jude, Simon R.; Pollard, Simon J. T. (2014-01-01)

Complex regulatory decisions about risk rely on the brokering of evidence between providers and recipients, and involve personality and power relationships that influence the confidence that recipients may place in the ...
Towards an agent-based model for risk-based regulation

Davies, Gareth J. (Cranfield University, 2010-09)

Risk-based regulation has grown rapidly as a component of Government decision making, and as such, the need for an established evidence-based framework for decisions about risk has become the new mantra. However, the ...
