1. Exploring cross-resource impacts of urban sustainability measures : an urban climate-land-energy-water nexus analysis
Sammanfattning : In an increasingly urban world, cities' global resource uses grow. Two fundamental resources for making cities liveable are water and energy. These resources are also closely interlinked – systems that convert and deliver energy to cities require water, and urban water systems use energy. LÄS MER
2. Addressing Water, Energy and Food Accessibility towards Achieving Sustainable Development in Katsina State, Northern Nigeria
Sammanfattning : It has become increasingly evident that water-energy-food nexus security is critical to realising the ambitious global goals (SDGs). Demands for water, energy and food have exceeded available supplies in many regions of the world. LÄS MER
3. Advancing Nexus Approaches: insights from practice in support of their operationalisation
Sammanfattning : The last decade has seen the emergence of a new research theme - the study of the resources Nexus. The “Nexus” refers to considering the functioning of several systems simultaneously, as opposed to one, as the object of research. This perspective reasons that coherent decision-making needs to consider systems' interconnectedness. LÄS MER
4. Experimenting with sustainability transformations: A study of Urban Living Labs in the food, water and energy nexus
Sammanfattning : Scholars and practitioners increasingly emphasize the importance of transdisciplinary and experimental approaches for understanding and addressing sustainability challenges. While there is widespread agreement that human society must undergo deep and radical changes, or so-called transformation, how transformation happens depends on multiple and dynamic factors in local contexts.

5. Integrating Water and Energy Systems for Long-Term Resource Management
Sammanfattning : Availability of and access to water and energy are key ingredients for economic and social development. Predictions show that pressure on already limited water and energy resources is expected to increase in many parts of the world as a result of growing populations, rapid urbanization, increasing pollution and climate change impacts.
