For this study we used Multi Critera Evaluation (MCE) with data recieved from prior studies and from online sources. The MCE was focused on the connection between the industrial sites and the sea, with consideration on how the contaminants flow from source to recipient and/or habitat in the marine environment.
Multi Criteria Evaluation
Regional Risk Ranking
The Regional Risk Ranking (RRR) is a more general way of handling and modeling risk sites and contamination in a region. This was done with a pre-built macro in Microsoft Excel called SIMACLIM, where the four different regions of Helsingborg were used for the modeling. We defined the regions as Grollegrund that is located north of Helsingborg, Ferry harbor, which is located in central Helsingborg. We also defined the Knähaken Harbor as a region, which is located just south of the heavy industrialized area of Sydhamnen, and the last region is the Small boat harbor of the river outflow Råån.
