Legal Knowledge Framework for Identifying Water, Energy, Food and Climate Nexus

The paper inclines to briefly articulate major problems and critical questions exist in water, energy, food and climate (WEFC) nexus from artificial intelligent and law perspective. Then a legal knowledge framework, based on computational ontology, Akoma Ntoso and LegalRuleML standard, is proposed to identify WEFC nexus. It also presents a brief use case on the existing legislations of quality ...
