Session at DNC 2017 // Tools, data and Instruments for Management of Environmental Resources

As the Nexus Approach presents itself as an alternative to better manage resources, its realisation requires a holistic understanding of the interlinkage of all related environmental processes, while also taking into consideration global change and socio-economic aspects. Exploring these interlinkages and advancing an integrated management approach requires integrated modeling tools.

Session at the Dresden Nexus Conference 2017 "SDGs and Nexus Approach - Monitoring and Implementation", 17-19 May 2017 For implementing such tools there is a pressing need for better disciplinary and interdisciplinary interlinkages data (see session A6). Models to simulate and forecast the pools, fluxes and status (quality) of environmental resources exist. However, new modelling frameworks building on these models and tools are emerging, highlighting the interfaces, interactions and fluxes between resources (e.g. soil-water), systems (e.g. pedosphere-atmosphere) and sectors (e.g. water, energy, food). This session explores the data and models issues in the nexus, focusing in particular on emerging integrative modeling and visualisation approaches.

Objectives and expected outcome

The session aims at: (1) defining data and data gaps in the resources nexus in support of integrative modeling tools, (2) showcase and explore models and model structure to help understand the interlinkages between environmental resources.

Target audience

Scientists and policy makers involved in understanding and managing primary resources
