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
