This model is used in a world studies extended essay research. The research question is: In what ways would the water desalination method used in Singapore benefit water-stressed and economically less developed countries, using Palestine as a case study.

This model retrieved data on Palestine water resources from Authority, Palestinian Water. "Annual status report on water resources, water supply, and wastewater in the occupied State of Palestine 2011." Palestinian Water Authority, Ramallah 13 (2012)

Data for Singapore desalination process is taken from PUB, Singapore Water Agency, "Singapore Water Story." PUB, Singapore's National Water Agency. N.p., n.d. Web. 25 Feb. 2017.

Data for Palestine population growth was taken from World Bank. World Bank. "West Bank and Gaza Home." The World Bank. N.p., n.d. Web. 25 Feb. 2017.

This model assumes that Palestine population will grow at 2.92% (World Bank, 2015) and average domestic consumption is 90 litres per capita per day(Palestine Water Authority, 2012). This model does not take into account growing demands for industrial and agricultural sector. It also does not show the impact of climate change on Palestine natural water resources.

STEM-SM combines a simple ecosystem model (modified version of VSEM; Hartig et al. 2019) with a soil moisture model (Guswa et al. (2002) leaky bucket model). Outputs from the soil moisture model influence ecosystem dynamics in three ways.

(1) The ratio of actual transpiration to maximum evapotranspiration (T/ETmax) modifies gross primary productivity (GPP).

(2) Degree of saturation of the soil (Sd) modifies the rate of soil heterotrophic respiration.

(3) Water limitation of GPP (by T/ETmax) and of soil nutrient availability (approximated by Sd) combine with leaf area limitation (approximated by fraction of incident photosynthetically-active radiation that is absorbed) to modify the allocation of net primary productivity to aboveground and belowground parts of the vegetation.

Ecosystem dynamics in turn influence flows of water in to and out of the soil moisture stock. The size of the aboveground biomass stock determines fractional vegetation cover, which modifies interception, soil evaporation and transpiration by plants.
