“…This is work in progress in various cases across the world. It builds on a tradition of using a diversity of simulation and experimental artefacts with stakeholders in order to undertake effective boundary work and to generate safer spaces for reflection on water governance (Le Page et al, 2011;Barreteau et al, 2012;Daniell, 2012).…”

“…For example, companion modelling (Barreteau et al 2012), role-playing games (Ferrand et al 2013) and other participatory methods could be used across the various components to define the scope, identify events and estimate likelihoods and consequences. In addition, threat and risk assessment and worst-case scenarios (Sunstein 2009) could be integrated into trigger identification.…”

We analyse the threats of global environmental change, as they relate to food security. First, we review three discourses: (i) 'sustainable intensification', or the increase of food supplies without compromising food producing inputs, such as soils and water; (ii) the 'nexus' that seeks to understand links across food, energy, environment and water systems; and (iii) 'resilience thinking' that focuses on how to ensure the critical capacities of food, energy and water systems are maintained in the presence of uncertainties and threats. Second, we build on these discourses to present the causal, risks and options assessment for decision-making process to improve decisionmaking in the presence of risks. The process provides a structured, but flexible, approach that moves from problem diagnosis to better risk-based decision-making and outcomes by responding to causal risks within and across food, energy, environment and water systems.

“…An important capability of the WACCShed platform that is not explored in the current study is its suitability for use in Iterative Participatory Modeling (IPM) studies. As detailed in Barreteau et al (2012) and Giuliani and Castelletti (2013), IPM envisions multidisciplinary researchers and stakeholders engaging together over time in the modeling and study of real-world systems of common interest. The intent is to help researchers and stakeholders manage complex systems through an ongoing collaborative learning process rather than through the attempted discovery of definitive problem solutions.…”

This study describes the architecture and capabilities of an open source agent-based Java platform that permits the systematic study of interactions among hydrology, climate, and strategic human decision-making in a watershed over time. To demonstrate the platform's use and capabilities, an application is presented in accordance with ODD protocol requirements that captures, in simplified form, the structural attributes of the Squaw Creek watershed in central Iowa. Illustrative findings are reported for the sensitivity of farmer and city social welfare outcomes to changes in three key treatment factors: farmer land-allocation decision method, farmer targeted savings, and levee quality effectiveness for the mitigation of city flood damage.
