[null,null,null,"Sommario/riassunto","Simulation models are an established method used to investigate processes and solve practical problems in a wide variety of disciplines. Central to the concept of this second edition is the idea that environmental systems are complex, open systems. The authors present the diversity of approaches to dealing with environmental complexity and then encourage readers to make comparisons between these approaches and between different disciplines.  Environmental Modelling: Finding Simplicity in Complexity 2nd edition is divided into four main sections: An overview"]
