Source water protection at the policy-science-stakeholder nexus: a narrative from England

Wednesday March 24th Webinar at 11am EDT
Adie's presentation on March 24th will be 20-30 minutes in length with the remaining hour open for discussion.​ 

YP webinar description: In the upcoming forWater webinar, Adrian will be talking briefly about the implementation of a program by the UK government whereby funding for improved agricultural management strategies was acquired through changes to water rates, with broad public support. This initiative sits at the nexus of issues involving land management, water quality and society, and provides a fascinating example of science-policy interaction with an ecosystem services twist.

Learning Objectives for YP
  • Understand policy implications for water management
  • Study an example of improved water quality measures with broad public support
  • Gain knowledge of how to communicate ecosystem services for effective impact

Bio: Adie's research interests broadly include the sustainability of agricultural practices and land use, which he investigates through the integration of empirical and modelling approaches. A detailed biography for Adrian can be found here.

Registration: Contact Elanor Waslander for the webinar link.

forWater Network and Water Institute talk with
​Adrian Collins & Christophe Darnault

Tuesday May 18th, Webinar at 11am EDT
Adrian (Adie) Collins and Christophe Darnault from Clemson University will explore water systems in relation to agriculture ecosystems. Adie Collins will share insights from England highlighting improved agriculture management strategies and Christophe Darnault will discuss the flow and transport in agriculture ecosystems. Darnault's research on soil and water conservation in agricultural and forestry systems investigates the impacts of water reuse and prescribed fires practices on the surface and subsurface processes —hydrology and soil erosion, and water quality within this landscape.
