Los ecosistemas montañosos de Cuba son espacios de biodiversidad, que requieren conservación y acciones que los hagan resilientes y sostenibles en el tiempo. Este trabajo contribuye al desarrollo local de la provincia de Cienfuegos. Es objetivo de esta investigación, facilitar la gestión y evaluación de los indicadores del desarrollo sostenible en el ecosistema Montañas de Guamuhaya mediante la elaboración del Sistema Informático para el Control Ambiental de la Montaña (SICAM). Su principal usuario es la Delegación territorial del CITMA en Cienfuegos, pero puede ser adecuado a los restantes ecosistemas montañosos de Cuba.  Los principales resultados están relacionados con el levantamiento de información posterior al año 1995 por áreas temáticas y por dimensiones del desarrollo sostenible, así como la evaluación del ecosistema, mediante un Índice de desarrollo sostenible aplicando la metodología Presión Estado Respuesta. Palabras clave: gestión, indicadores, índice, áreas temáticas, dimensiones. ABSTRACT   The mountain ecosystems of Cuba are spaces of biodiversity that require conservation and actions that make them resilient and sustainable in the time. This work contributes to the local development of the province of Cienfuegos. The objective of this research, to facilitate the management and evaluation of sustainable development indicators in the ecosystem Mountains of Guamuhaya, through the development of the Computer System for the Environmental Monitoring of the Mountain (SICAM). Its main user is the territorial Delegation of CITMA in Cienfuegos, but it may be appropriate to the remaining ecosystems in mountainous areas of Cuba. The main results are related with the uprising of information after the year 1995 by subject areas and by dimensions of sustainable development, as well as the assessment of the ecosystem, using an Index of sustainable development by applying the methodology Pressure State Response. Keywords: management, indicators, index, thematic areas, dimensions.

The problems related to sustainable development (SD) cover changes over time and space, as well as the interpenetrating relationships in economic, social, environmental, institutional and spatial spheres. The development, in line with the concept of sustainable development, takes place when all changes occurring in the environment are focused on improving the quality of life of the Earth’s population, following the principles of environment resources’ protection at the level allowing the development of future generations. SD concept remains one of the goals underlying developmental policies conducted at the global, EU, national and regional level. Therefore, the question arises how the developmental changes in one area manifest in others in the space of territorial units. The research was conducted for socio –economic areas, where through improvements in economic activity conditions, positive effects in areas of unemployment and poverty are expected. The analysed phenomena, described using indicators, are structured in accordance with the principle: from a problem to its solution, PSR (pressure‑state‑response). Methodology of the SD evaluation in the PSR framework is based on aggregate measures, correlation analysis, spatial statistics and macro evaluation of changes using `change matrix’. The analysis was carried out for the panel of data referring to the poviats in Poland in the period 2009–2014.

In this paper, the construction of the pressure-state-response model is referred to build the indicator system for assessing the environmentally sustainable development of the expressway during construction and operation periods. And a specific measurement method is given in this study. The principal component analysis is performed to determine the weight of each index by statistical analysis, and to calculate the environmentally sustainable development indices during the construction period and operation period, and the whole project. According to the results, the environmentally sustainable development indices during construction and operation period are most related with the pressure index, which means that the environmentally sustainable development of the expressway is closely related to the reasonability of the design, construction and operation of the expressway itself.

This article establishes the methodological foundations by designing a global synthetic index of sustainable development which fulfils three conditions: it adapts to the principles of Pressure - State - Response, it adopts the mandates established in Local Agenda 21 and adapts to the four components or basic dimensions of sustainability: institutional, environmental, economic and social. The synthetic index is constructed using the aforesaid methodology and based on the calculations of 78 variables, 37 sub-indicators and 13 indicators, gathered the latter in the previously mentioned four dimensions and subsequently applying this index to the EU countries.

The study on Watershed Sustainability Index (WSI) has been conducted to analyst the environmental condition in the area incorporating ecological baseline and socio-economic conditions. WSI is an integrated indicator based on basin Hydrology, Environment, Life and Policy (HELP) state condition. It is suitable to be applied in the Langat River Basin in Malaysia which has similar catchment area (up to 2,350 km2) and is one of the UNESCO HELP River Basin since 2004. The WSI analysis which uses a pressure–state–response function based on basin HELP Indicator was done for Langat River Basin by using relevant available 5 years data for the period of 2009 to 2013. It is found that Langat River Basin is having WSI value of 0.68 which falls under the category of medium sustainability (between 0.5-0.8). Based on the maximum value (i.e. 1) or high sustainability (i.e. WSI value more than 0.8) it can be said that Langat is in the good side in term of sustainability. Few management aspects need to be improved and maintained well to be more sustainable. The assessment provides Langat River Basin with more information that is crucial in managing the basin through the adoption of UNESCO’s HELP Framework.

Many natural, environmental, ecological and social economical indexes are involved for urban water ecological security assessment. The index system is built with the pressure-state-response model put forward by Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development. The comprehensive index weights are determined with improved analytic hierarchy process and entropy value method. The model based on fuzzy optimum selection theory is used. The application of this model in Jinan is given as an example. The results correspond basically with the reality.
