Biological and Engineering Impacts of Climate Change on Slopes: Learning from full scale

这项合作的重点是通过一系列以人为本的活动，将从事全面监测斜坡的研究小组联系起来。其中包括：联合王国研究人员和学者访问了联合王国和海外的一些实地考察点;联合王国和海外学术机构之间的青年研究人员交流;研究人员借调到工业界;举办了一个传播讲习班，并建立了一个门户网站，用于储存和交换数据，以及举办在线会议和研讨会。尽管其主要重点，合作将必然提供扩大的研究团队成员之间的联系，在数值模拟，本构建模，土壤测试和仪器的专业知识。还打算将这些活动与这笔资金所建立的更广泛的合作框架联系起来。

SummaryThe focus of this collaboration is to link research groups who undertake full-scale monitoring of slopes through a range of people-based activities. These include: visits of UK researchers and academics to a number of field sites both in the UK and overseas; exchanges of young researchers between UK and overseas academic institutions; secondments of researchers to industry; a dissemination workshop and the establishment of a web portal for the storage and exchange of data and for the running of on-line meetings and seminars. Despite its main focus, the collaboration will necessarily provide links between members of the extended research teams with expertise in numerical simulation, constitutive modelling, soils testing and instrumentation. It is the intention that these activities will also be linked within the wider collaborative framework created by this funding.
