Dr. Cristina Armas Kulik PhD
Environment, Natural Resources
Agriculture, Environment
Issues at the intersection of agricultural sciences, agricultural engineering, and hydrology. Evaluating processes under the conditions of climate change. Deriving technical and procedural adjustments. Developing hydrological balances for procedures and branches of industry as the basis of further technical/procedural developments.
Linking scales (continuing to develop instruments in order to predict the interactions between resource use and the impact of measures at different scales).
Developing solutions that combine food security and water efficiency.
