I s acpaed ha hs sudy may reveal some beefcal sghs for he raspor operaors o operae evromeally ad profably. Keywords: Emsso, Fuel Effcecy, ose, ree Idex, Evromeal Susaably. ITRODUCTIO owadays, global evromeal ssue becomes oe of he challeges for he raspor operaors o susa such a complcaed rasporao sysem. As repored Ieraoal Cvl Avao Orgazao (ICAO) (200), avao secor accous for abou 2% of oal global carbo doxde ( CO 2 ) emsso, whch s approxmaely % of he CO 2 emsso from all rasporao sources. I erms of greehouse gases (Hs), rasporao secor s foud o geerae % of he global Hs. Udeably, here are que a lo of crcal cosequeces due o he exsece of subsaal polluas he ar. The repored cosequeces cludes ar polluo, clmae chage mpacs, healh effecs, lad-use ad ecosysem mbalace (Jac, 999; Wllams e al., 2002; Frasse e al., 2004; Jarup, 2005, Bruecker ad rv, 2008; Pras e al., 20). Correspodgly, may allevao approaches, amely clmae chage mgao sraeges, advaces alerave fuel, echologcal mproveme ad maageme of hazardous maerals have bee carred ou by he releva pares he rasporao secor (Trasporao Research Board, 202) lesseg he polluas geeraed from he raspor acves.

Therefore, he effecs of hese elemes should be capured accordgly for he raspor operaors o oly o operae evromeally bu also ecoomcally. 2. LITERATURE REVIEW May pas sudes had bee coduced o look o he ssues of evromeal susaably. eerally, he exsg sudes could be caegorzed 2 major felds,.e. avao secor ad o-avao secor. 2. Evromeal Issues Avao Secor For he avao secor, here are major cocers, amely arcraf emsso, fuel effcecy ad arcraf ose. Recogzg he mpacs of arcraf emsso, Wllams e al. (2002) showed ha alude resrcos o arcraf could be a effecve meas reducg clmae chage effec. Myosh ad Masa (2009) proposed a carbo calculao prooype o moor arcraf emsso whle Yamaguch (200) dscussed he voluary CO 2 emssos reduco scheme by employg ecoomerc aalyss. Wh he am o foser he ulzao of evromeally fredly ege echology, he effec of arle emsso charges ad local emsso charges were aalyzed by Bruecker ad Zhag (200) ad Scheelhaase (200), respecvely. vo ad Reveld (200) speced he evromeal cosequeces upo he choce of arcraf sze ad servce frequecy. They revealed ha a large arcraf would be requred for shor-haul operao o reduce he evromeal mpac. I addo o he use of alerave fuels, demad shf ad carbo prcg, Sgourds e al. (20) revealed ha echologcal ad operaoal effcecy mprovemes are sgfca o decrease he sde effecs o he evrome. Besdes, Jac (999) hghlghed ha larger arcraf would decrease average level of ose ad fuel cosumpo whle Morrell (2009) showed ha he ulzao of larger arcraf s effecve o oly reducg emsso bu also mprovg fuel effcecy. kolers e al. (20) esmaed fuel cosumpo ad emssos durg ax operaos. Ther resuls show ha dlg ad axg saes a cosa speed or brakg were foud o be wo larges sources of fuel bur ad emssos. Besdes, Jac (200) showed ha ose ad ar polluo quoas have sgfcaly affeced he arpor ad arle s performace. Lu (2009) measured he socal coss of arcraf ose ad ege emsso o se up evromeal charges. Specfcally, rv (2009) dscussed arcraf oseabaeme ad mgao sraeges whle Hsu ad L (2005), Ljese (200) ad Breche ad Pcard (202) evaluaed arpor ose charge polces ad he correspodg arle ework adjusme respose. From he sudes as meoed above, could be deduced ha a effce arle's sraegy (cludg flee plag) plays a mpora role susag he evrome. As such, he arles eed o pla properly f hey were o cocer he evrome. Alhough hese sudes had covered evromeal mpacs of he arcraf emsso, fuel effcecy ad arcraf ose a cera exe, mos sudes focused o sgle eleme (emsso, fuel

I s mpora o oe ha order o assure a evromeally susaable sysem, he focus o sgle eleme s oo resrcve as here s o sgle sraegy ha works perfecly o susa he evrome (Yag e al., 200; Sgourds e al., 20; ealer e al., 202). More mporaly, hese sudes dd o quafy he 'gree level' whch s flueced grealy by arcraf emsso, fuel effcecy ad ose. How hese elemes corbue o he 'gree level' of he arles s o explored explcly. Therefore, he eleme of emsso, fuel effcecy ad ose are cosdered reasoably hs sudy formulag a 'gree dex' model for he raspor operaors o operae evromeally. 2.2 Evromeal Issues o-avao Secor To ease he evromeal ssue oher rasporao secor (o-avao secor), here are some major mgao effors, cludg lad-use maageme, modal shf/ermodal plag, schedulg ad roue opmzao, eergy ad echologcal ehaceme, alerave fuel adopo, polcy mplemeao ad ose-abaeme sraeges, as repored he leraure. Abou he same cocer as could be see he avao secor, may sudes focused o vehcles emsso, fuel effcecy ad ose. I erms of lad-use plag, Pooglou ad Kaaroglou (2005) esmaed vehcle emsso by specg rasporao eracos wh lad-use plag. They hghlghed ha urba egraed model s requred o reduce emsso. For mode shf plag, Seehof e al. (2006) explored he processes leadg o Hs emsso chages ad assess he possble cosequeces he fuure. They showed ha Hs emsso was prmarly flueced by creasg fregh operaos ad modal shf owards heavy rucks. More recely, ealer e al. (202) speced mode shf polces by evaluag he eergy ad H emsso mgao effecveess. For er-modal plag, Paerso e al. (2008) looked o he poeal reduco of CO 2 emsso by esmag he demad for er-modal servces. I erms of opmzao mehod, Ercsso e al. (2006) produced roue choce wh he lowes fuel cosumpo sead of he shores me or dsace. They showed ha he proposed avgao sysem s able o geerae he bes roue erms of fuel ecoomy. To solve bus schedulg problem, L ad Head (2009) evaluaed emsso reduco wh alerave eergy sources. They poed ou ha he mplemeao of upper boud o emsso s effecve reducg emsso. To spec eergy ad echologcal mproveme, Yedla ad Shresha (200) examed he mpac of quaave (cos, eergy savg poeal, emsso reduco poeal) ad qualave (echology avalably/adapably, mplemeao barrers) crera selecg alerave rasporao opos for evromeally susaable raspor sysem. They showed ha he cluso of qualave crera explas he falure of may alerave raspor opos. Skppo e al. (202) compared he mpacs of echologcal mproveme ad behavorally-based abaeme approaches by cosderg cumulave emsso budges. They showed ha echologcal developmes ad behavoral chage polces eed o be appled deeply. For alerave fuel adopo, Merlo e al. (2004) evaluaed he assessme of vehcles wh alerave ypes of fuels ad dffere ypes of drve ra. Johso e al. (202) speced he mpacs of bodesel bledg o fregh emsso. Ther resuls show ha he chages emsso due o bodesel are smaller ha ege ad corol echologes. Eglmez ad Taar (202) proposed realsc polcy opos o decrease emsso. They showed ha he egraed approach of polcy-makg (by egrag fuel effcecy, publc rasporao ad elecrc vehcle usage) has a crucal mpac o he success of polcy mplemeao. Wh he am o reduce ose polluo, Kg e al. (20) quafed he effec of he

(202) evaluaed he ose emsso produced by a vehcle real drvg codos ad defed he oses drvg behavors. The resuls show ha eher drver experece or sex has ay apprecable mpac o ose geeraed, ad ege ype has lle effec. Freas e al. (202) assessed raffc ose based o key facors, amely payme ype, raffc speed ad raffc desy. The fdgs show ha hgher car speeds ad hgh raffc deses always lead o greaer aoyace. Besdes, cobblesoes were foud o be he mos aoyg pavemes whle ope asphal rubber paveme mposes less aoyace ha dese asphal. From he leraure, s observable ha he ssue of evromeal susaably could be eased from varous aspecs. everheless, hese sudes jus focused o a specfc mgao sraegy acklg evromeal mpacs. As meoed earler, he oly cosderao o sgle facor s oo resrcve. How he flueal eleme (eg. emsso, fuel ad ose) affecg he overall 'gree level' s o cosdered hese sudes ad hus he raspor operaors would o kow her overall evromeal performace. Therefore, a proper 'gree dex' model s deed ecessary o quafy evromeal mpacs explcly, parcularly o acheve a w-w suao bewee he evrome ad raspor operaors. 2. Evaluae Evromeal Impacs Tll o dae, here s very lmed sudes quafed evromeal mpacs of rasporao felds. To assess he evromeal mpacs for a hghway roue ad pavg projec, Bocl ad Mello (2006) preseed a decso suppor mehod ad her resuls show ha he parkhghway s he mos promsg alerave gvg he bes ecologcal, ecoomc ad socal performace. Ross e al. (2009, 202a, 202b) examed hree-dmesoal cocep of susaably o erpre he prefereces of he decso makers ad also o defy he mos mpora characerscs of alerave rasporao polces. The lmao of hese sudes s ha hey prmarly focused o rasporao aleraves aalyss for whch here s o exac quafcao approach ha could be used o evaluae he gree level of he evrome. I oher felds (o rasporao sysem), Slver (2000) evaluaed he effecs of ffsh marculure o coasal zoe waer qualy by adopg fuzzy logc approach. Four fuzzy ses (l, moderae, severe ad exreme mpacs) were defed for whch he correspodg paral membershps have bee combed o produce a sgle comprehesve score as a overall measure of evromeal qualy. More recely, Valee e al. (20) caegorzed old mg ses ad descrbed her evromeal mpac (low, medum ad hgh). They showed ha he use of fuzzy logc o oba he evromeal mpac dex allowed he egrao of quaave ad qualave compoes. Some oher releva sudes employg fuzzy logc o evaluae evromeal mpacs could also be see Phlls ad Adraasaholaa (200) ad Adraasaholaa e al. (2004). Alhough above-meoed sudes clamed ha boh quaave ad qualave elemes could be capured, he resula oupus were oly a approxmao (o exac soluo). The precso of he resuls s quesoable. As such, a proper approach whch ca produce precse soluos s ceraly ecessary. Furhermore, hese sudes jus focused o a specfc evaluao a prese. They dd o reveal he comparso bewee curre perod ad pas performace. Whou hs compoe, he mproveme saus of a curre operag perod could o be defed (uless furher aalyss s carred ou). Therefore, hs sudy proposes a framework ha s able o quafy exac evromeal performace by coducg a drec evaluave comparso bewee curre operag perod ad s prevous performace. Wh hs eleme place, exac performace of each operag perod hroughou he plag horzo ca be evaluaed accuraely. Addoally, hs sudy s able o

The flucuao of demad level should be corporaed as would affec he acves of he operaors ad hece he evromeal performace measures wll vary. However, oe of he exsg sudes address hs aspec quafyg he evromeal performace. To fll hs gap, hs sudy develops a gree dex model ha allows he raspor operaors o quafy he 'gree level' hroughou he plag horzo respose o he evromeal performace ad also demad flucuao of each operag perod. By capurg flee emsso, fuel effcecy ad ose, a gree dcaor owards he operag performace of he raspor operaors ca be defed clearly. A llusrave case sudy s demosraed o exame he feasbly of he proposed mehodology. The fdgs show ha he proposed mehodology s vable, corbug o he maageral pracces of he raspor operaors. I s acpaed ha hs sudy may reveal some formave hghlghs o he raspor operaors order o provde a beer servce profably ad evromeally whch would beef he ravelers ad commuy reur.

Scearo S2 (wh creme of ravel demad) has a hgher servce frequecy ha scearo S (wh a fall of ravel demad) ad hece scearo S2 produces a lower gree dex compared o scearo S. Thus, could be deduced ha he gree dex s also versely proporoal o he quay of arcraf operao (prmarly due o he servce frequecy).
