Soil & Hydrology Laboratory

Location: Faculty of Sciences and Technology/ Third Floor (ST218D) / Faculty of Sciences and Technology/ Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences

Introduction:

Soil Hydrology Research (SHR) unit was established in the year 2010. The motivation of the SHR is grounded in the sustainability of natural resources and soil pollution. Our research emphasize on both water security for human use and protection of natural systems. We support minimizing and remediating human impacts on hydrologic ecosystems.
