Abstract
This article presents a system dynamics analysis of environmental impa cts of a coalfield. In this article, a system dynamics model is develo ped for environmental impact analysis of a coalfield. The model is sim ulated for a period of 20 years assuming that existing conditions will prevail in the future. This is the Basic Scenario. Alternative pollut ion control measures are tested for their viability by generating alte rnative scenarios and comparing them with the Basic Scenario.
