Abstract

This lecture provides an overview of existing modeling methods for Human-Environment Systems. The term "model" is defined, model classifications and the areas of applicance of several methods (e.g. system dynamics, multi-agent systems, spatial modeling) are discussed. Goal is not to personally program models, but to be able to judge which type of model is suitable for which research questions.
