SUMMARY:Scenarios\, simulations\, and sustainability science:  Plannin
 g for the future of complex systems \, Chaos & Complex Systems Seminar
 \, Chris Kucharik\, UW Nelson Institute
DESCRIPTION:Cleaning up the Yahara lakes is difficult because they are
  part of a complex system\, where the needs of humans and ecosystems c
 ompete and long-term challenges\, such as climate change and land use 
 planning have many possible consequences and solutions. How can we bet
 ter prepare for the future given this complexity and uncertainty? We c
 an start with scenarios\, or provocative and plausible stories that gu
 ide numerical simulations of the future.  Together\, these tools can h
 elp us understand how our decision-making today could impact our lakes
  and landscapes in the future. This presentation will cover the proces
 s and new model results that are a part of Yahara 2070\, a set of scen
 arios created for the Yahara River watershed by the Water Sustainabili
 ty and Climate Project at UW-Madison.
