Research Programs in CSES
CSES is committed to the land grant mission, and thus to bringing the most recent research to where it is needed most. The term "engagement" has been used in recent years to emphasize that this is not a one-way discussion. It is our desire to work with others to address a wide range problems, and to work together to develop essential research, adapt that research to local conditions, and to overcome barriers which prevent its ultimate adoption as a good agricultural practice (or best management practice- BMP).
We currently have three major focus areas, each dealing with processes, functions, and resources affecting our long term abilty to provide essential ecosystem services.
