Dr. Tina-Simone Neset’s research addresses two important challenges for environmental change analysis, which are to understand resource and material flows related to land-use and to develop new methods and tools for analysing linkages between environmental and sustainable development issues.
Global phosphorus scarcity is a vigorously debated issue in the scientific literature. Dr. Neset’s recent research, predominantly in collaboration with colleagues at the Institute for Sustainable Futures, University of Technology, Sydney, has been focused on scenario studies for global phosphorus use and to identifying synergies between sustainable phosphorus management and other sustainability challenges. In a recent study, we developed a qualitative vulnerability framework for phosphorus scarcity.
