UHERO is proud to announce the forthcoming Sustainability Science for Watershed Landscapes edited by UHERO’s own Dr. Jim Roumasset, Dr. Kimberly Burnett, and Dr. Arsenio Balisacan of the University of the Philippines Diliman. Sustainability science integrates traditional interdisciplinary environmental studies with policy science. In this volume authors go beyond the application of scientific knowledge to specific problems and develop new methods for dealing with dynamic, spatial, behavioral, and interactive complications of resource systems under pressure. The newly published volume is scheduled to be released in conjunction with the upcoming international workshop, “Sustainability Science for Food, Forests, and Floods: Integrating Climate Adaptation and Pro-Poor Resource Management” being held at the East West Center in Honolulu, Hawai’i May 27-28, 2010.
