Use of holistic modelling of different agroforestry systems within the ReForest project to promote adoption in Europe Prajna Kasargodu Anebagilu, Cory Whitney, Andrew Marcil, Marcos Jiménez Martínez, Eike Luedeling Agroforestry has the potential to produce diverse food and income sources, provide balanced development of the region and aid in sustai...

The integration of agroforestry on dairy farms presents a potential paradigm shift in dairy production in the Eifel Region of Germany. Through consultation and interviews with local farmers, foresters and other experts we have developed a decision analysis model to describe the shift from current production to agroforestry on dairy farms and assess...

The calibration of hydrological models using bio-inspired meta-heuristic optimization techniques has been extensively tested to find the optimal parameters for hydrological models. Shuffled frog-leaping algorithm (SFLA) is a population-based cooperative search technique containing virtual interactive frogs distributed into multiple memeplexes. The...

This study proposes an innovative socio-hydrological modeling framework for the development of environmental policies that are tailored to farmers' attitudes and economic interests but also optimize environmental criteria. From a farmers' on-site survey, a behavior model is developed based on a modified Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). The dynamic...

Identification of critical erosion-prone areas and selection of best management practices (BMPs) for watersheds are necessary to control their degradation by reducing sediment yields. The current research assesses and proposes a combination of potential BMPs for the Baitarani catchment in India using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT). After...

Soil erosion is a severe problem in Chile that affects agricultural production. According to UNEP’s report on Chile, wheat production faces a serious problem with soil erosion. This study investigates behavioral changes in farmers from Bulnes, Chile to install vegetative filter strip in their fields to avoid soil losses due to erosion. In this, the...

Mombasa faces severe water scarcity problems. The existing supply is unable to satisfy the demand. This article demonstrates the combination of satellite image analysis and modelling as tools for the development of an urban rainwater harvesting policy. For developing a sustainable remedy policy, rooftop rainwater harvesting (RRWH) strategies were i...
