Wholescape systems thinking: water quality effects on coastal habitat condition and services across the land-sea interface

该研究项目旨在增进对淡水质量与过渡和沿海沃茨下游存在或可恢复的自然资本之间的整个系统联系的了解，以便有利于这些资源及其提供的生态系统服务和惠益的可持续管理。该项目具有高度的跨学科性，重点关注上游水质变化如何影响过渡和沿海沃茨的生态系统，以及它们提供的服务和惠益。它是由一个学者团队与皇家庄园合作设计的，他们将密切参与其交付和监督。从这个博士的产出将通知跨业务讨论在皇冠地产（和其他地方）的营养中立性和可能存在的机会，以提供基于自然的解决方案。

This research project aims to improve understanding of the whole system links between freshwater quality and the natural capital that exists or can be restored downstream in transitional and coastal waters, in order to benefit the sustainable management of these resources and the ecosystem services and benefits they provide. The project is highly transdisciplinary, with a strong focus on how upstream changes in water quality affect ecosystems in transitional and coastal waters, and the services and benefits they provide. It has been designed by a team of academics in collaboration with The Crown Estate who will be closely involved with its delivery and supervision. Outputs from this PhD will inform cross-business discussion at The Crown Estate (and elsewhere) on nutrient neutrality and opportunities that may exist to deliver nature-based solutions.
