PANEL 2.1: Adaptation: Climate smart agriculture, water cycle and emergency preparedness SESSION 2: ADDRESSING CLIMATE CHANGE CHALLENGES

Scientific Researcher, Department of Soil and Water, Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) Ana Navas manages the Gamma Lab and the Research Group on Erosion and Soil and Water Evaluation at the Estación Experimental de Aula Dei; she is a pioneer in the application of radionuclides (FRNs and ERNs) as indicators of environmental processes associated with glacial retreat under conditions of climate change in polar and high mountain regions
