GC53F:
The Food–Energy–Water System Nexus and Decision Support for Sustainability Posters
Submit an Abstract to this Session
Session ID#: 46904
Session Description:
The sustainability of food, energy, and water resources is threatened by increasing population and climate change. The availability, management, and use of these resources are at the heart of human-nature interactions, which are intertwined with the ability of the food-energy-water (FEW) nexus system to meet societal demands while protecting ecosystem services. The resilience of this nexus system is complex, involving interconnections and interdependencies among global changes, socioeconomic pressures, governance policies, regional interventions, and human behaviors. It is therefore imperative to build interdisciplinary capability in data synthesis, cyberinfrastructure, and modeling frameworks to understand, predict, and support multi-scale decisions impacting FEW nexus sustainability. This session highlights challenges and recent progress from a diversity of interdisciplinary approaches to address FEW nexus issues.
