From Individual Fuzzy Cognitive Maps to Agent Based Models: Modeling Multi-Factorial and Multi-stakeholder Decision-Making for Water Scarcity (version 1.0.0)
This model simulates different farmers’ decisions and actions to adapt to the water scarce situation. This simulation helps to investigate how farmers’ strategies may impact on macro-behavior of the social-ecological system i.e. overall groundwater use change and emigration of farmers. The environmental variables’ behavior and behavioral rules of stakeholders are captured with Fuzzy Cognitive Map (FCM) that is developed with both qualitative and quantitative data, i.e. stakeholders’ knowledge and empirical data from studies.
