ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: Natural phenomena such as floods, drought, erosion, nitrate leaching and plant growth are influenced by climate change. The Soil-Water Systems division of GemblouxAgro-Bio Tech aims at studying these phenomena; better understanding processes; modelling them in order to predict their change in the future and to assess their potential consequences. Then, we can propose strategies to adapt to these changes. As an agronomy faculty, we believe that adapting agriculture can play a major role in mitigating climate evolution effects at plot and catchment scales.
