The modelling of complex, dynamic and uncertain socioenvironmental systems requires close collaboration between research disciplines stakeholders at all levels, for if such models are representations aspects reality, how can it be possible to build them without inputs from people who interact with the in reality? This paper reflects on findings case study involving knowledge creation through conceptual formal model building support upland water catchment management. uncertainty, multiple...

Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) aims at finding practical and sustainable solutions to water resource issues. Research practice have shown that innovative methods tools are not sufficient implement IWRM - the concept needs also be integrated in prevailing management paradigms institutions. governance science addresses this human dimension by focusing on analysis of regulatory processes influence behavior actors systems. This paper proposes a new methodology for resources systems...

A priority evaluation, light its impacts on environmental and resources, is industrial general construction industry specifically. The sector consumes 40% extracted materials USA, accounts 30% national energy consumption operation. this dependent fundamental shift way resources are...

Awareness of sustainable management water and its biological resources is rising in West Africa, but application effective tools for biomonitoring detecting habitats at risk aquatic ecosystems limited. In this study, we provide key environmental descriptors to characterize reference sites by applying the following "a priori criteria" (physical chemical, hydro-morphological, land use parameters) exploring their potential determine suitable sites. Using data collected from 44 sites, identified...

Wildfire risk management has gained importance as wildfires increase in their frequency and intensity, with potentially devastating impacts on communities ecosystems, contributing to climate change, biodiversity loss ultimately increasing societal vulnerability multi-hazards. As a result of historical processes influenced by socioeconomic factors, political decisions changes human-nature interactions, wildfire become more complex involving multiple stakeholders often holding competing views....

In recent years, the prospects of severe climate change have increasingly focused attention on long-term sustainability current practices resource management, which no longer appear robust to uncertainty from extreme weather events or trends. Increased awareness uncertainties and complexity systems be managed highlight need for some profound changes in management (Gleick 2000, Pahl-Wostl 2007). Uncertainties always characterized water management. Water traditionally emphasizes reduction...

ABSTRACT This paper describes a new gaming tool that allows players (e.g. water managers and farmers) to explore the consequences of their interactions in managing river floodplains. To facilitate process creating testing policies would help accommodate disordering events, e.g. floods, we developed system dynamics model floodplain agriculture drives an interactive game. The Floodplain Management Game can be used as educational resource, knowledge elicitation technique or transition...

The growing complexity and interdependence of water management processes requires the involvement multiple stakeholders in governance. Multi-party collaboration is increasingly vital at both strategy development implementation levels. involves a process joint decision-making among key problem domain directed towards future that domain. However, common goal not present from beginning; rather, emerges during collaboration. Unfortunately, when conflicting interests different actors are stake,...
