Our paper in collaboration with Imperial's #WSIMOD team out. We incorporated a #groundwater module into the integrated water system model and apply a flux tracking approach to reveal groundwater and river baseflow origins and assess groundwater abstraction management options.

We're delighted to be part of this new centre for doctoral training and look forward to working with our university collaborators and industry partners to help train the experts we need to address the challenges of #flooding.
One in six homes in the UK are at risk of flooding 🏠 💧 We've launched a training centre to better understand and manage flooding which has caused havoc across the UK this month. Find out more 👉 brnw.ch/21wFVtk
