Overview

As an atmospheric scientist Dr. Györgyi Gelybó has been researching regional climate change and the potential tools to mitigate it by focusing on nature based solutions. While investigating carbon and water cycle components of agricultural lands, she is trying to find best practices under local conditions to ensure the long term sustainability of agriculture while specifically focusing on GHG emissions and water cycling. In recent decades people have been experiencing climate change and its detectable effects, which has created anxiety in the climate conscious population as our natural needs have often become contradictory with the fight against greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and climate change. The Pannonian Biogeographical region is a well-defined unique region where protecting native species as well as mitigating climate change effects in different sectors is a challenge that we must face.

OTKA K-104816

Measuring and modelling water and carbon balance of managed agricultural lands

The main aim of the proposed research is to evaluate and improve the available models that can be used to simulate crop yield, soil moisture content and carbon balance of agricultural lands in Hungary with special regard to differences in management practices (HYDRUS-1D SOILCO2, Biome-BGC, ANTHRO-BGC and 4Mx models will be used).

AgroMo - Interdisciplinary Research Group for Promoting Climate-Smart and Sustainable Agriculture"

The project aims to support the development of climate-smart and sustainable agriculture by building interdisciplinary experimental environment, and by creating an Integrated Modelling framework software, which is able to quantify the future national agricultural productivity in the light of different climate projections and socio-economic scenarios.

OPTAIN - OPtimal strategies to retAIN and re-use water and nutrients in small agricultural catchments across different soil-climatic regions in Europe”

Thus OPTAIN aims to:

- Identify efficient and easy-to-implement techniques for the retention and reuse of water and nutrients in small agricultural catchments across Boreal, Continental, and Pannonian regions.

- Optimize the spatial allocation and combination of Natural/Small Water Retention Measures, based on environmental and economic sustainability indicators.

OTKA K-101065

Data modell fusion for studying the combined effects of different land use and climate change scenarios on water regime and soil erosion

This project aims to develop an integrated multi-scale approach to monitor, model and evaluate occurrences of extreme hydrological situations and their effects with respect to floods, droughts and soil erosion. Applying data-model fusion, we intend to integrate knowledge on plot- and catchment scale description of water and soil particle transport.
