Globally, human societies face a burgeoning challenge of achieving sustainable use of natural resources to provide food, fuel, water and amenities for an increasing population under the context of climate change. At its most fundamental, this will require achieving food and water security of supply without threatening the ability of the environment to support future generations. An increasingly urbanized and wealthy population is driving a growing and changing demand for food, water, land and other natural resources and contributing to environmental degradation. These demands combined with climate change, and its associated natural hazards, were critical considerations in the development of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs, 2015). The challenges posed by the SDGs require long term national scale research-based solutions. SUNRISE seeks to improve livelihoods and wellbeing through reduced environmental risk, improved environmental quality and improved reliability of the supply of food, water and other natural resources by providing the evidence and advice needed to improve management of the wider environment. SUNRISE will address local issues and research needs in China, India, Indonesia / Malaysia, Kenya and other countries in sub Saharan Africa and address SDGs 1, 2, 3, 6, 13 and 15.SUNRISE builds on the research themes that formed the basis of the approved NC-ODA Foundation Award with activity currently in progress: (1) developing hydro-climate services for improved water resource management and flood and drought forecasting and preparedness; (2) restoration and remediation of degraded resources and environments to improve people's health and economic security, and; (3) management of land resources to ensure environmental sustainability and economic growth and resilience. These will be developed and delivered in partnership with in-country partners and stakeholders to address their most pressing environmental needs. Hydro-climate services are tools and methods that translate data and knowledge of current and potential future hydrological conditions into information that will inform better water policy, planning, management and decision-making. The science challenge is to adapt CEH's models and understanding to perform at an acceptable level of uncertainty in data sparse regions. In meeting this challenge we will both advance UK research capabilities and provide tools, methodologies and assessments to reduce the impact of extreme events on people and their livelihoods and increase the reliability and resilience of water supplies for people, livestock and businesses on a day to day basis.Restoration and remediation options require research aimed at understanding and quantifying the key factors and processes that cause environmental degradation and upon which mitigation measures rely. This theme will seek to fill a knowledge gap by determining the key factors that affect the rate and stability of recovery as systems are restored, and the resilience of restored systems to future change. In investigating this knowledge gap in real-world situations the findings will advance science knowledge and inform new policy and management approaches needed in India, China, Indonesia, Malaysia and Kenya but with global relevance.Increasing agricultural productivity sustainably is a clear priority both for food provision and also as a pathway to alleviating poverty, particularly for the 83% of the global agricultural population who rely on smallholder agriculture. Small holder agriculture is often not as productive as it could be: working with local agronomists we will investigate new approaches to achieve ecological intensification, through diversification of smallholder land, water and livestock management to deliver improved productivity, resilience and sustainability.

在全球范围内，人类社会面临着在气候变化背景下实现自然资源可持续利用以向不断增加的人口提供粮食、燃料、水和便利设施的日益严峻的挑战。最根本的是，这将需要实现粮食和水的供应安全，而不威胁环境支持后代的能力。日益城市化和富裕的人口正在推动对粮食、水、土地和其他自然资源的需求不断增长和变化，并导致环境退化。这些需求与气候变化及其相关的自然灾害相结合，是制定联合国可持续发展目标（SDG，2015）的关键考虑因素。可持续发展目标所带来的挑战需要长期的国家规模的基于研究的解决方案。该日出旨在通过提供改善更广泛环境管理所需的证据和建议，降低环境风险，改善环境质量，提高粮食、水和其他自然资源供应的可靠性，从而改善生计和福祉。日出将解决中国，印度，印度尼西亚/马来西亚，肯尼亚和撒哈拉以南非洲其他国家的当地问题和研究需求，并解决可持续发展目标1，2，3，6，13和15.SCRESSISE建立在已批准的NC-ODA基金会奖的基础上，目前正在进行的活动：（1）发展水文气候服务，以改善水资源管理以及洪水和干旱的预测和准备;（2）恢复和补救退化的资源和环境，以改善人民的健康和经济安全;（3）管理土地资源，以确保环境可持续性和经济增长及复原力。将与国内合作伙伴和利益攸关方合作制定和提供这些方案，以满足其最紧迫的环境需求。水文气候服务是将当前和未来潜在水文条件的数据和知识转化为信息的工具和方法，这些信息将为更好的水政策、规划、管理和决策提供信息。科学的挑战是适应CEH的模型和理解，在数据稀疏的地区执行在一个可接受的水平的不确定性。在应对这一挑战时，我们将提高英国的研究能力，并提供工具、方法和评估，以减少极端事件对人们及其生计的影响，提高人们供水的可靠性和复原力。恢复和补救方案需要进行旨在了解和量化导致环境退化的关键因素和过程的研究以及缓解措施所依赖的。这一主题将通过确定影响系统恢复速度和稳定性的关键因素以及恢复后系统对未来变化的适应力来填补知识空白。在调查现实世界中的知识差距时，研究结果将促进科学知识，并为印度、中国、印度尼西亚、马来西亚和肯尼亚所需的新政策和管理方法提供信息，但具有全球意义。可持续地提高农业生产力是粮食供应和减轻贫困的一个明确的优先事项，特别是对于依赖小农农业的全球83%的农业人口而言。小保持器农业往往没有达到应有的生产力：我们将与当地农学家合作，通过小保持器土地、水和牲畜管理的多样化，研究实现生态集约化的新方法，以提高生产力、复原力和可持续性。
