The aim of the study was to create a hybrid forecasting method that could produce higher accuracy forecasts than previously used ‘pure’ time series methods. Mentioned methods were already tested with total automotive waste, hazardous automotive waste, and total medical waste generation, but demonstrated at least a 6% error rate in different cases and efforts were made to decrease it even more. Newly developed hybrid models used a random start generation method to incorporate different time-series advantages and it helped to increase the accuracy of forecasts by 3%–4% in hazardous automotive waste and total medical waste generation cases; the new model did not increase the accuracy of total automotive waste generation forecasts. Developed models’ abilities to forecast short- and mid-term forecasts were tested using prediction horizon.

The present chapter provides a brief explanation on some aspects involved in the development of models and mathematical-modelling simulations, to show their benefits to the decision-making process in the environmental impact assessment of agriculture. Aspects concerning the agroecosystems were also presented toward the sustainability of Brazilian agricultural production systems. Some applications which have been developed in Brazil were pointed out, as well as a specific case study conducted at the Guarani aquifer recharge area located in Ribeirão Preto, São Paulo state, in order to show the influence of input data on the results provided by CMLS94 simulator.

The radar equation is the fundamental mathematical model of the basic function of a radar system. Moreover, there are many versions of the radar equation, which correspond to particular radar operations, like low pulse repetition frequency (PRF), high PRF, or surveillance mode. In many cases, all these expressions of the radar equation exist in their combined forms, giving little information to the actual physics and signal geometry between the radar and the target involved in the process. In this case study, we divide the radar equation into its major steps and present a descriptive mathematical modelling of the radar and other related equations utilizing the free space loss and target gain concepts to simulate the effect of a white noise jammer on an adversary radar. We believe that this work will be particularly beneficial to instructors of radar courses and to radar simulation engineers because of its analytical block approach to the main equations related to the fields of radar and electronic warfare. Finally, this work falls under the field of predictive dynamics for radar systems using mathematical modelling techniques.
