Mission | The mission of the UF Water Institute is to bring together talent from throughout the University to address complex water issues through innovative interdisciplinary research, education, and public outreach programs. The overarching goals of Water Institute research, education and outreach programs are to: • Improve basic knowledge of the physical, chemical, and biological processes in aquatic systems (rivers, lakes, oceans, estuaries, wetlands, soil and ground waters). • Enhance understanding of the interactions and interrelationships between human attitudes and activities, and aquatic systems. • Develop and promote the adoption of improved methodologies for water management and policy (including quantity, quality and ecosystem services) based on a foundation of science, engineering, management and law. |
