Summary
This book began life as a review of environmental scenario modelling undertaken by the Swedish University of Agricultural Science (SLU) on behalf of the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency (Naturvårdsverket) and the Swedish Agency for Marine and Water Management (Havs och vattenmyndigheten). That report focused on several categories of problems which together represent coupled systems with impact on the 16 Environmental Goals set out by the Swedish Government (Prop. 2009/10:155) as its legislative response to domestic and international environmental obligations such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals (United Nations, 2015a). The book extends that core to provide global context, via a set of case studies drawn from around the world and to look beyond simply modelling the problem to how such models can help identify solutions, particularly where these rely on natural processes, i.e. nature-based solutions (NBS).
