The team of specialists from the Vienna University of Technology believes that in the 9th century the whole civilization of Maya disappeared due to a catastrophic lack of water.
Scientists put forward the theory , which is based on the fact that people have taken away the technology Land irrigation and exploiting water bodies during drought.
"The amount of water affects The amount of the resulting nutrition, which, in turn, has an impact on an increase or, on the contrary, a decrease in population population. On the other hand, the increase often interferes with the passage of natural water cycles. Especially harm this reservoir, "say the authors of the study.
Since water and society significantly affect each other, it is impossible to describe them with separate models. A group of specialists presented their relationship with several mathematical models, finding general features, such as the availability of water and the dynamics of the birth rate, the scale of the lack of fresh water and the magnitude of the reservoir under construction. It turned out that the investigated relationships under the influence of certain factors constitute a complex system that affects the existence of both people and in whole nature.
