TL;DR: In this article, two antagonistic schools of thought regarding sustainability studies are presented, as well as a revision of weak and strong indicators in the literature, and dierences between these approaches are analyzed by using two concrete indicators: ISEW and Emergy.
Abstract: Urban sustainability studies have been traditionally divided in two groups based on weak and strong sustainability paradigms. Several indicators have been presented which can be assigned to one of those groups. In order to analyze their advantages and drawbacks, these two antagonistic schools of thought regarding sustainability studies are presented, as well as a revision of weak and strong indicators in the literature. Dierences between these approaches are analyzed by using two concrete indicators: ISEW and Emergy, applying them to a real case of a sustainability study in the Spanish Costa del Sol.

TL;DR: Yale's Environmental Performance Index (EPI) as discussed by the authors has emerged as the premier framework of national-scale metrics for global environmental policy analysis and is used by the Yale Center for Environmental Law & Policy (YCELP).
Abstract: Yale’s Environmental Performance Index (EPI) has emerged as the premier framework of national-scale metrics for global environmental policy analysis. Data and indicators from 180 countries gauge progress on 20+ environmental public health and ecosystem vitality goals. The framework offers a policy-relevant scorecard that highlights leaders and laggards in environmental performance, gives insight on best practices, and provides guidance for countries that aspire to be leaders in sustainability. The Yale Center for Environmental Law & Policy (YCELP) is looking for research assistants to contribute to the 2018 release of the next EPI report. For more information, visit epi.yale.edu.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explain how the latest international handbook on environmental accounting, the System of Integrated Environmental and Economic Accounting or SEEA ( United Nations et al., 2003), can be used to measure weak and strong sustainability.
Abstract: In this paper, we explain how the latest international handbook on environmental accounting, the System of Integrated Environmental and Economic Accounting or SEEA (United Nations et al., 2003), can be used to measure weak and strong sustainability. We emphasise the importance of understanding the conceptual differences between weak and strong sustainability. We then outline what we consider to be current best practice in measurement, all the time flagging the relationship between our discussion and that of the SEEA-2003. This is an important task in our view, because, despite covering a very wide range of relevant conceptual and empirical issues, the handbook is by design not meant to provide clear guidelines for the purpose of measuring sustainability in either its weak or strong version.
