Title Land Systems and Sustainable Land Management (Podcast)
Description With increasing pressure on natural resources for food, fibre and fuel, and the increasing pollution of the environment as a sink for waste, a sustainable management of land, soil, water, vegetation and biodiversity is necessary to reduce land degradation, secure ecological processes, and to ensure they continue to support human well-being at various scales, and from local to global levels. Sustainable land management practices also contribute to both climate change adaptation and mitigation. In this course, key theories, concepts, methods and approaches in sustainable land management and land systems related to soil, water, vegetation and biodiversity are discussed. Their relevance and applications are illustrated drawing on case studies.

Requirements: It is recommended that students have attended physical geography courses and have a basic understanding of ecological processes.
