A system dynamics model to quantify the impacts of restoration measures on the water-energy-food nexus in the Urmia lake Basin, Iran
Bakhshianlamouki E., Masia S., Karimi P., van der Zaag P., (Corresponding) Susnik J.
Topic:
Water, energy and/or food nexus
Water scarcity exacerbated by growing demand has created environmental, social, and economic challenges in the Urmia Lake Basin (ULB), Iran. Tackling these requires an integrated approach. A System Dynamics Model is developed simulating the water-energy-food nexus in the ULB as a holistic multi-...Read more

Topic:
Spatial environmental planning
Urban planning is crucial to promote resilience and liveability of cities in the face of current urbanization patterns and climate change challenges. Nature-based solutions (NBS) are viable alternatives to grey infrastructure, with multiple environmental, social and economic benefits and co-...Read more
