Objectives

GUIDE DECISION BY

  • Combining analysis of

climate and local impacts

  • Developing “what if”

scenarios to consider climate and disaster risk in macro decisions

  • Proposing and evaluating

costs and benefits of interventions by sector and across sectors OBJECTIVES & GOALS

  • Institution and capacity

development

  • Science‐based policy making
  • Regional cooperation
  • Analysis of potential future

mega projects

  • Effective linking with disaster

risk reduction

What is proposed

  • Simple
  • Flexible & utility
  • riented
  • Easy to understand for

urban policy makers

  • Suited to evaluating the

costs and benefits for abatement, adaptation, and risk reduction

AN INTEGRATED ASSESSMENT TOOL WHICH IS A SYSTEMS APPROACH THAT

  • Connects the various

components of the urban system (economic, environmental, etc.)

  • Captures interactions

between components to improve environmental and human health, water security, and infrastructure

SIMULATE IMPACTS …

  • Over study area
  • Over distribution of flood events
  • With and without climate change
  • With and without adaptation
  • In time steps (“transient” mode)

as climate changes as land use changes

  • Aggregate and discount to present value

  • Build on existing concepts
  • Conceptual structure before mathematical

detail

  • Easy with computer
  • Intuitive graphical user interface
  • Support modular modeling
  • High‐efficient simulation

System Approach

System Dynamics Concept

  • System dynamics is an approach to understanding the

behavior of complex systems over time. It deals with internal feedback loops and time delays that affect the behavior of the entire system. (MIT, System Dynamics in Education Project)

  • What makes using system dynamics different from
  • ther approaches to studying complex systems is the

use of feedback loops and stocks and flows. These elements help describe how even seemingly simple systems display baffling nonlinearity.
