A Capital Venture

The work carried out by SEFARI which relates to natural capital is varied and detailed, and encompasses soil, fresh water and biodiversity, together with the ecosystem services (including cultural services such as recreation, heritage, spiritual, amenity, and health) which they support. The vision for this work, and those carrying it out, is for recognition worldwide as leading authorities in the understanding and management of natural resources, and in the sustainable use of these resources in a manner that is resilient to future pressures.

Can you prevent a cowtastrophy?

Policies implemented in order to control Foot and Mouth Disease, such as large-scale culling of healthy animals, were often controversial. Other infections have the potential to cause similar problems.

Antimicrobials: A topic for the table

Antimicrobial is a broad term used to describe antibiotics that include antibacterial, antifungal, antiparasite and antiviral agents. The bacteria, fungi, parasites and viruses evolve over time and develop traits (a resistance) which enable them to survive exposure to medicines that would normally kill them, and this can have life threatening consequences.

Protecting our soil and securing the way ahead

A large proportion of the Scottish strategic road network in the Highlands is vulnerable to landslides. Landslides in Scotland have significant economic impact and they may increase in frequency with the intense rainfall events associated with a changing climate. The potential of vegetation to decrease vulnerability to landslides has been demonstrated in the laboratory, and increased vulnerability to landslides has often been noted after vegetation clearance in the field.

Dr Orla Shortall

My research interests relate to decision making and values around agriculture. I am an interdisciplinary social scientist and I am interested in what could be described as the philosophy of agriculture: what agriculture is for, why we value it and how we can understand change within agriculture. More information can be found on my James Hutton Institute staff profile.
