**4. Results**

Basic behavior-over-time diagrams of the model's outputs showed the strong relationships between independently measured variables (see Appendix A Figures A1 and A2). These diagrams, along with formal statistical methods guided by practical examples [39], are used to validate the model outputs, including seven water variables and seven socioeconomic variables. These variables displaying the model's outputs differ from the variables used for calibration that can be adjusted manually. Chapter 9 of the Supplementary Material offers a complete methodology. Results-over-time of base run and scenario tests are graphed in Figure A3. Results are interpreted in the quadrant analysis.
