Participatory modeling to assess the impacts of climate change in a Mediterranean vineyard watershed

Audrey Naulleau et al.

Summary: The diversity of pedoclimatic and socio-economic contexts in agricultural landscapes poses challenges for assessing the impacts of climate change. This study used models and a participatory approach to simulate and discuss the potential impacts on water balance, grape phenology, and yield in a Mediterranean vineyard watershed. Results showed a projected decrease in grape production by 7-14% by 2100, with a higher decrease in irrigated high-yield areas despite an increased water supply. Furthermore, a forecasted 6 degrees C increase in temperature during berry ripening could threaten wine quality. The approach of involving stakeholders in model development and result discussions provides a promising means of identifying local adaptations to climate change.

Enhancing the diffusion of e-participation tools in smart cities

Hana Kopackova et al.

Summary: This article explores the factors that drive the adoption process of innovative e-participation tools. The study finds that citizens' participatory experience, technological innovativeness, and the innovativeness of cities all have a significant impact on the adoption process. Additionally, the municipality's provision of more e-participation tools can greatly increase the adoption rate.

Customizable process design for collaborative geographic analysis

Zaiyang Ma et al.

Summary: Collaborative geographic analysis requires complex interactions, and a process expression can help coordinate and guide these interactions. However, current studies mainly focus on the structure of the process, neglecting the content. This article proposes a customizable process expression model that considers both structure and content, and provides methods for customization and implementation, demonstrating improved geographic analysis through a case study.

LUCST: A novel toolkit for Land Use Land Cover change assessment in SWAT plus to support flood management decisions

Alexander M. F. Rigby et al.

Summary: Land Use Land Cover (LULC) change is a crucial factor influencing the hydrological response of river basins. However, the existing process of making and assessing such changes in the SWAT+ model is cumbersome and non-intuitive. To address this issue, a user-friendly toolkit called LUCST has been developed to facilitate the definition of LULC change scenarios, model running, and visualization of output variables.

Finding the Balance Between Simplicity and Realism in Participatory Modeling for Environmental Planning

M. L. Zellner et al.

Summary: Complex systems simulations can support collaborative water planning by allowing stakeholders to jointly understand the effects of land- and water-use decisions on groundwater flow. The participatory modeling progression enables stakeholders to assess policy impacts on groundwater levels through modifying and using increasingly sophisticated models. However, there is a limit to the realism of models, as overly realistic models can hinder planning efforts.

User experiences of using a spatial analysis tool in collaborative GIS for maritime spatial planning

Christian Koski et al.

Summary: Stakeholder participation in Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP) processes is crucial, and Spatial Decision Support Systems (SDSSs) can be effective tools for analyzing problems in MSP. While most stakeholders understand and find SDSS appropriate for problem-solving, integration of SDSS into CGIS can further enhance problem exploration and solving in groups. Further research is needed to develop flexible solutions for alternative problem-solving methods in MSP.

What's left before participatory modeling can fully support real-world environmental planning processes: A case study review

B. Hedelin et al.

Summary: In environmental participatory modeling (PM), both computer and non-computer-based modeling techniques are used to support participatory problem description, solution, and decision-making actions in environmental contexts. Despite the publication of many PM case studies, efforts to systematically describe and understand dominant PM processes or establish best practices are lacking. A review of environmental PM case study articles revealed that there is still significant work needed to fully support participatory and integrated planning processes.

Satellite imaging reveals increased proportion of population exposed to floods

B. Tellman et al.

Summary: Satellite imagery from 2000 to 2018 indicates that the proportion of global population exposed to floods is increasing, highlighting the importance of investing in flood adaptation strategies to reduce loss of life and livelihood. Changes in where and how floods occur, as well as the population exposed, are being influenced by urbanization, flood mitigation infrastructure, and settlements in floodplains. The high spatial and temporal resolution of satellite observations will enhance understanding of flood changes and adaptation methods.
