Design Step
Go to manual
The second step, that of System Design, drafts a plan for a simplified 'Virtual System' or conceptual model that includes the essential features of social-ecological system behaviour involved in the problem. The step bridges the gap between the system in the real world and the simulation models that will be developed in the next step of 'System Formulation'.

Problem Scaling
Instructions on how to carry out this sub task
a. Scale all processes and streamline the problem to the first-order cause-effect chain; simplify methods to bring them in balance with the overall effort.
b. Iterate on the scope of the problem to ensure feasibility and reduce if needed. |
Example
c. Begin to think about the outputs of the SAF in terms of publications in the natural, economic and social sciences. |
Example
d. Begin to think about the format for presentations and visualizations (for policy-makers, stakeholders, and the public).
