We undertake multidisciplinary research across four key resource strands. Our interdisciplinary research is built on strong core disciplines that include ecology environmental sciences geography geology geophysics meteorology oceanography We develop methods and strategies to enable the responsible use of the Earth's resources for the benefit of society. We undertake research focused on limiting the environmental impact of obtaining natural resources and using the subsurface to safely store waste related to their use. Biomass and soils This strand focuses on how soil management, climate and land use change affect greenhouse gases and soil carbon. Geoenergy Geoenergy encompasses a range of energy technologies and sources that interact with the geological subsurface. Minerals Our planet provides our essential minerals and we study how they can be produced with minimal impact. Water Water is essential to support life on Earth, is vital for humankind and also provides a useful energy resource. This article was published on 2024-07-01
