Land, soil and water are intimately linked in the environment. Water is essential for terrestrial ecosystems and agricultural production; land cover and land use impact profoundly on the health of aquatic ecosystems and resources; and soils strongly affect hydrological, agricultural and biogeochemical processes. Thus, to find effective and sustainable solutions, we must consider the interactions between environmental processes and human activity at the catchment scale, which is the area of land that drains to a river (i.e. watershed or basin).

The Catchment Management Group in the Centre for Water, Environment and Development uses a whole systems perspective to understand the interdependencies between water management, agricultural systems, and aquatic ecosystems. The group's research combines approaches and methods from environmental sciences, engineering, geomorphology, ecology and social sciences. Strengths lie in the assessment and modelling of the impacts of climate and socio-economic change on water resources for agriculture and hydropower, integrated analysis of river systems to support sustainable management and restoration, and the development of new governance models and policy for environmental management and agricultural support policy.

The collegial group has strong links nationally and internationally and works closely with colleagues across the School of Water, Energy and Environment, especially those in the 撸撸视频 Environment Centre and the Crop-Soil-Water Systems and Soil Systems groups.
