A fuzzy conflict measure for conflict dissolution in drought management

In the real world, environmental decision-making takes place in a highly interconnected environment, in which neither the decisional ramifications of a management action, nor the complexity of its impact, can be neglected. A fuzzy conflict measure is proposed in this contribution to support drought management. The proposed approach allows to detect, analyse and measure conflicts between the different actors involved in drought management, and to support the process of conflict dissolution.
