| Deskribapena: | [Introduction]: This study proposes advances in modeling and analysis of socio-natural systems as a result of public policies on the environment and sustainable development. [Objective]: Present a formal systemic proposal for modeling socio-natural systems in a strategic decision-making framework. [Methodology]: Based on the symbols of signed digraphs, the study offers a group of elements to analyze socio-natural model systems geared towards a prospective analysis of diverse intervention scenarios applied to the systems. New quantitative metrics are also presented to evaluate the dynamic role of the variables comprising the socio-natural systems. The energy-territory sustainability system of the Coquimbo Region in Chile is used as a case study, and the expected performance of alternative environmental management actions is evaluated on a comparative basis. [Results]: Results suggest that intervention/management actions planned based on the new metrics presented here were particularly effective in modeling scenarios projected. [Conclusions]: Qualitative structural modeling is suitable for representing and analyzing socio-natural systems, exhibiting operational advantages to support decision-making. |
