Natural Resource Management
Natural resource management can be defined as the management and the protection of environmental resources of land, water and plants. Engineering skills include soil physics and hydrology, waste management, water management technologies, and environmental impact assessment. At the present time, we have two major research programs within this theme area:
Waste utilization in soil-plant systems - animal waste management, soil remediation, contaminant transfer in soils, nutrient budgets
- T.A. Fonstad
- C. Lague
- C.P. Maule
Water management and sustainable development - irrigation, groundwater and surface water utilization, soil water balances.
- C.P. Maule
- T.A. Fonstad
Cold-regions hydrology - physical modelling, forest hydrology, land-atmosphere interactions, snow transport.
