English abstract:
How to describe two-way coupled feedbacks of water systems and society? We use an interdisciplinary approach to tackle complex science questions in the emergent field of socio-hydrology. An economic framework is added to hydrological and resource management research, and mathematical optimization methods are developed and improved.
The applications are optimal decisions in two fields. Firstly, a society or a firm in flood risk areas choose optimal investment strategies for flood protection measures. Secondly, households consumption and farmers fertilizer decisions yield strategies for phosphorus management in a general equilibrium framework.
The poster provides an overview of four research articles on the applications.
