ABSTRACT

In the present era, the constant growing of consumption of natural resources necessary to sustain human activities is one of the factors that led to major climate changes affecting in this way the delicate balance of the environmental systems. These environmental issues like global warming, depletion of ozone layer, dwindling forests and energy resources, loss of global biodiversity etc. which become more compelling for nowadays society, led to increased public interest for better understanding ecosystems in order to intervene and mitigate the human negative impact over environment. This article aims to present a system based on fuzzy logic in order to assess an ecosystem to determine appropriate methods of action for reducing adverse effects on environment and implicit the population.

Keywords: fuzzy logic modeling, ecosystem assessment, environmental protection
