Sand Stabilisation

Active sand dunes and mobile dune fields threaten infrastructure, agriculture, and settlements. Stabilisation requires understanding sand movement patterns, moisture availability at depth, and species that can establish in shifting substrates — not just surface treatments.

Desertification Reversal

Reversing desertification is not simply replanting trees. It requires rebuilding soil biology, restoring water infiltration capacity, and establishing vegetation sequences that progressively improve site conditions over years, not months.

Oasis Belt Restoration

Traditional oasis systems are collapsing due to groundwater depletion, land-use change, and climate shift. Restoration combines hydrological management, traditional knowledge, and modern soil amendment techniques.
