Description
TEACHING and RESEARCH in Erosion and Soil & Water Conservation (ESW).ESW aims at first class teaching and research by first class staff and PhD students. Output is published in International Journals with peer review. All ESW research is part of theme 4 (Sustainable Production and Conservation Systems) of the Graduate School ‘Production Ecology and Resource Conservation (PE&RC)’ of Wageningen UR. ESW has a leading role in the themes ‘Land Use and Management’ and ‘Land Degradation; processes, prevention and remediation’ of the Center for Soil Science and Land Use of Wageningen UR. This Center consists of 5 Chairgroups of Wageningen UR and 4 teams of ALTERRA.ESW research is characterized by an integration of bio-physical and socio-economic principles and processes. That is why we work at the field/farmer scale and the catchment/community scale. We maximize internal Wageningen UR cooperation by stimulating PhD’s to have two promoters; one from the beta sciences and one from the gamma sciences. ESW research is divided over four domains with different valorization for society:•Processes & Measurements. This fundamental research is used to analyze complex Land Management problems in real world.•Assessment & Design. This applied research is used to solve problems in Land Management.•Impact & Adoption. This strategic research is used to achieve equity and contribute to the Millennium Goals via policy interventions.•Sustainable Land Management. This integrated research is used to obtain synergy from the interdisciplinary approach of problem solving.Our research is paid from a mixture of funding resources. Research themes and priorities are updated annually using a SWOT analysis. Ongoing research in 2006 can be found at the ESW web-site. |
