My doctoral research is linked to the EU H2020 project called WATERAGRI, and research is related to the sustainability assessment for local management of water and nutrients in agricultural areas. The work includes assessing water management and nutrient retention methods used in the EU, considering their technical applicability, functionality, costs, and environmental benefit.
