15.3 Some Key Research Questions in FEW System
Modeling
The interconnectedness of FEW systems necessitates the use of a coupled model
framework capable of representing complex feedbacks that may shift or vary as
critical thresholds are reached. The framework must be able to capture the systems’
response to changing environmental conditions, which will be determined in part by
feedbacks from the FEW systems themselves. Here we describe some of the critical
pairwise interactions.
