4.4 Trade-Offs

• iMacroSE and cMacroSE
• iMesoSE and cMesoSE
• iMacroSE b and cMacroSE b
• iMesoSE b and cMesoSE b
• Level impacts are due to the differences between Macro and Meso Sefficiencies
at the same I/O and Pollution. This is done via the following four comparisons:
• iMacroSE and iMesoSE
• iMacroSE b and iMesoSE b
• cMacroSE and cMesoSE
• cMacroSE b and cMesoSE b
• Pollution impacts are due to the differences between full and beneficial Sefficiencies at the same I/O and Level. This is done via the following four
comparisons:
• iMacroSE and iMacroSE b
• iMesoSE and iMesoSE b
• cMacroSE and cMacroSE b
• cMesoSE and cMesoSE b
Under a specific application, we should start with the worst impact difference and
analyse it in more detail in conjunction with the trade-off patterns given in the next
subsection. In general, these repeating reflections with stakeholders can progress to
unconventional scenarios that sometimes can disrupt the usual functioning of a WUS.
In other words, having water as the main priority, not the traditional ones, such as,
economy, food, land, health or ecosystem, can lead us to innovative scenarios for the
sustainable development of a region.
4.4.3 Patterns
Equation (4.7) has more than 13 variables, which are WPIs and their weights.
Changing one variable gives a different value for SE in a mostly non-linear fashion.
Frequently, if one variable changes, others also vary making the combined effect of
all the changes on SE more difficult to assess, meaning that trade-offs are much more
complex. In general, the notion of trade-off in this subsection is to understand the
behaviour and the structure of the domain (or space) of a policy or in this situation
Eq. (4.7). Please see the end of Sect. 2.1 for the clarification of the notion of domain
behaviour of an equation.
However, Eq. (4.7) is very complex because of its high dimensions, so let us see the
behaviour of Eq. (4.8), which has six variables (I, C, R and their Usefulness Criteria).
To start and remembering Eq. 2.2, we define the expressions given in Eq. (4.14).
