The
Department of Soil, Water, and Climate at
the University of Minnesota has established an annual lecture series
dealing with
topics related to Emerging Issues in Soil and Water. The purpose
of the series is to educate our students, faculty, and the public
in this
area of interest.
Among the principal concerns for the 21st century are food security,
global sustainability, and environmental quality. Dynamic and
innovative
research addressing emerging issues in soil and water will be critical
for society to addresses these concerns. This lecture series
provides a forum
to explore emerging issues, to inspire creative thinking, and to
recognize excellence.
