Introduction to Overseas Expertise  Center for Discipline Innovation of Watershed Ecological Security in the Water Source Area of the Mid-line Project of South-to-North Water Diversion

The “Overseas Expertise  Center for Discipline Innovation of Watershed Ecological Security in the Water Source Area of the Mid-line Project of South-to-North Water Diversion”(D23015) was officially approved by the "Higher Education Discipline Innovation and Introduction Plan" in 2022. This is the first National platform in Nanyang Normal University, and this is another landmark progress in the high-quality construction of school.

The Talent Introduction Base is established on the basis of international cooperation platforms including provincial talent introduction bases and international joint laboratory. This base gather domestic and international famous scholars, focus on the key scientific issues in four aspects: water source conservation and water quantity protection in the water source area of the Middle Route of South-to North Water Diversion, water environment governance and ecological restoration in the water source area, technology research and development of digital twin water network in the water source area and ecological database and intelligent control system. The base aim to construct intelligent ecological regulation platform, and ensure the safety of water quantity, water quality, and ecology in the Middle Route of South-to North Water Diversion.

This Talent Introduction Base is based on the backbone subject group of "Ecological Security and Water Resource Protection" in Henan Province, closely focusing on the key scientific issues of ecological security in water source area, focusing on introducing high-quality national intellectual resources. It focus on the forefront of international basic research in the field of ecological security in river basins, based on the major needs of national and water source economic construction, and conduct high-level research work. This base can expand advantageous and distinctive disciplinary fields, cultivate new disciplinary growth points, and develop a new backbone subject group of ecological security and water resources with both originality and applicability. This will contribute to improving the comprehensive strength of the subject, accelerate the talent cultivation , emphasize the transformation of achievements, and promote the economic development of the Middle Route water source area.

This Talent Introduction Base will further strengthen the long-term close cooperative relationship between Nanyang Normal University and 12 top experts, which from internationally famous universities such as Kiel University (Germany) , University of California Riverside (USA), Kyoto University (Japan), University College London (UK), and University of Parma (Italy). This base will also strengthen the cooperation with expert from Tsinghua University and Zhengzhou University. Through the combination of relevant scientific research teams, the team will greatly improve the innovation ability of ecological security in the water source basin of the Middle Route of South-to North Water Diversion. This base will provide strong intellectual support and technical support to ensure the "One Canal of Clear Water Continuously Delivers to the North" .
