人类与环境之间的相互作用正在以前所未有的规模发生;与社会共同进化的一个环境方面是水。The:以下各项:人类与水循环互动的规模,以及社会和水文系统之间的耦合,沿着,意味着影响水的决定也会影响人。模型通常用于协助水文系统的决策,因此,为了在水资源管理方面做出有效的决策,这些相互作用和反馈应在用于分析水和人类相互作用的系统的模型中得到考虑。本文回顾了文献周围的社会水文建模方面。它首先介绍了社会水文学作为一门学科的现状,然后介绍了建模的原因和潜在的应用。然后讨论了社会水文建模工作的一些重要概念,包括观察社会水文系统的方式,建模的空间和时间,复杂性,数据和模型概念化。几个建模方法进行了说明,在其发展的详细阶段和它们的适用性的社会水文情况进行了讨论。研究中的差距,然后强调,以指导未来的研究方向。对文献的审查表明,社会水文学研究的性质是跨学科的,侧重于人类与自然系统之间复杂的相互作用,并涉及长期问题,因此建模将始终是一个挑战;然而,建模者的任务是利用提供给他们的广泛工具尽可能克服这些挑战。社会水文学的重点是从整体意义上理解人-水系统,这与其他水管理领域解决问题的重点不同,20因此,应开发社会水文学模型,以期对这些动态有新的认识。有一个基本的选择,社会水文模型面临的决定,
Interactions between humans and the environment are occurring on a scale that has never previously been seen; one environmental facet that has seen particular co-evolution with society is water. The ::: the : scale of human interaction with the water cycle, along with the coupling present between social and hydrological systems, means that decisions that impact water also impact people. Models are often used to assist in decision-making regarding hydrological systems, and so in 5 order for effective decisions to be made regarding water resource management, these interactions and feedbacks should be accounted for in models used to analyse systems in which water and humans interact. This paper reviews literature surrounding aspects of socio-hydrological modelling. It begins with background information regarding the current state of socio-hydrology as a discipline, before covering reasons for modelling and potential applications. Some important concepts 10 that underlie socio-hydrological modelling efforts are then discussed, including ways of viewing socio-hydrological systems, space & time in modelling, complexity, data and model conceptualisation. Several modelling approaches are described, the stages in their development detailed and their applicability to socio-hydrological cases discussed. Gaps in research are then highlighted to guide directions for future research. The review of literature suggests that the nature of socio-hydrological 15 study, being interdisciplinary, focusing on complex interactions between human and natural systems, and dealing with long horizons, is such that modelling will always present a challenge; it is, however, the task of the modeller to use the wide range tools afforded to them to overcome these challenges as much as possible. The focus in socio-hydrology is on understanding the human-water system in a holistic sense, which differs from the problem solving focus of other water management fields, and 20 as such models in socio-hydrology should be developed with a view to gaining new insight into these dynamics. There is an essential choice that socio-hydrological modellers face in deciding between
