Towards sustainability for water-agriculture-energy-ecosystems nexus with interconnected uncertainty: A vine copula-based fixed-mix stochastic programming method

The collaborative management of the water-agriculture-energy-ecosystems (WAEE) nexus is of great significance for promoting sustainable development; however, some parameters associated with interconnected uncertainty (i.e., joint-random uncertainty) existing in the WAEE nexus can introduce additional complexity and intensify the conflict-laden issue of water allocation among agriculture, energy and ecosystems. This study develops a vine …
