Geography in Action features five informative and engaging sessions in which leading geographers will extend students’ knowledge.

 

Understanding the Water and Carbon Cycles: Earth's Life Support Systems - Geraldene Wharton, Queen Mary University of London

Taking a systems approach, Geraldene will explore the key features of the water and carbon cycles over a range of spatial and temporal scales and use the example of a tropical rainforest system to consider their integrated functioning. Finally, Nature-based Climate Solutions, will be examined as part of the suite of mitigation strategies to achieve the goal of Net Zero Carbon Emissions.

Other sessions will also take place - please see the event webpage for more information.
