Sustainable aqua environment

Mission & Vision of Modules

  • The mission of this module is to establish monitoring and projecting techniques for recent climate change and rapid biodiversity loss from the perspective of the water cycle. The module will work to generate scientific knowledge that will contribute to the achievement of a sustainable water cycle and the maintenance of biodiversity. In addition, this project will also work on the social implementation of these scientific findings as mitigation and adaptation measures against climate change and biodiversity loss. The creation and social implementation of knowledge on the water cycle and biodiversity under climate change will contribute not only to SDG Target 6, but also to Target 15 and Target 14, as well as to Target 13 through the maintenance and restoration of green carbon and blue carbon ecosystems. It is important to analyze water, energy, and food issues as a nexus. Therefore, this module will address this issue with members who specialize in multiple fields of study, including both the natural sciences and the humanities and social sciences.
