Case 1 is designed with the aim to investigate effect of Surface
Temperature Indicator under constrain that it has pri ority in comparison with
other indicators having the same weighting coefficients. Under this constrain,
it can be noticed that options rating is followed by the option numbering.
It is interest to verify that the constrain introduced wi th the Surface
Temperature Indicator priority reflects the situation when the catastrophic
events the most probable occurrence.
