Over the past decade, water-energy nexus (WEN) has emerged as a prominent framework with which to analyze and visualize interconnections between energy production, freshwater resources, hydrological cycle. The WEN is fundamentally geographic concept embedded in landscapes. analyses often include landscape visualizations, yet these are rarely conceptually rigorous; consequently, visual-represent...

Food-water-energy nexus is a complex problem characterized by multiple alternatives, conflicting objectives, and uncertainties about key drivers like climate change, urbanization, population growth. Serious games are becoming popular means to support decision-makers who responsible for the management of urban food, water, energy systems. However, effectiveness these in improving decision-making...

Abstract The management of water resources requires a correct understanding the simultaneous food and energy resources. framework water–food–energy correlation with approach sustainability uses analyzes combined exploitation water, food, help scenario planning. In addition to concepts, environmental costs such as emission carbon dioxide from fossil fuels its impact on environment are also discu...

A foodshed is a geographic area from which a population derives its food supply, but a method to determine boundaries of foodsheds has not been formalized. Drawing on the food–water–energy nexus, we propose a formal network science definition of foodsheds by using data from virtual water flows, i.e., water that is virtually embedded in food. In particular, we use spectral graph partitioning for...

The water-energy-food nexus is now a popular approach in the sustainability field. However, whereas calls for more holistic, inter- and transdisciplinary approaches, research produced over past decade has been fragmented specialized. Furthermore, there still gap between as descriptive analytical concept its operationalization. Nexus needs shift from “thinking” to “action,” which we understand p...
