Course summary

Resilience is the important ability of communities, or physical, chemical or biological systems, to ‘bounce back’ from, for example, some kind of disturbance, shock, dynamic natural process, environmental disaster, or disease outbreak. However, the fundamental processes which lead to system resilience or lack of resilience are not well understood. CAWR’s research therefore focuses on advancing knowledge on the underlying processes that promote resilience in food and water systems.For example, understanding the fundamental processes that enhance, – or undermine - , the resilience of water systems is an important part of CAWR’s research. Here, we focus in particular on: River instability processesClimate impact on hydrological systemsWater pollution, including the rise of a new generation of contaminantsUrban water: rapid global urbanization is a poorly understood threat to water systemsPlease use the official Coventry University website as your main source of information as our courses are subject to change throughout the year.
