Join JBA's Ryan Jennings today at the @The_RRC Annual Network Conference. Ryan will be presenting with @GabbyPowellNFM (@Stantec) about a pilot #NFM project to evaluate the efficiency of leaky barriers for #NaturalFloodManagement. As part of the NERC-funded @LandwiseNFM Project.
First Day of the 2022 UK River Restoration Centre (@The_RRC) Annual Network Conference. @JBAConsulting out in force, making #riverrestoration mainstream! @HemsworthMatt | @lauramthomas12 #slowtheflow #geomorphology #nfm #catchmentmanagement #networking #naturebasedsolutions

Read about the fruitful collaboration between @butnorain & @JoClarkUoR for @LandwiseNFM where walking, talking, and listening led to a successful, final presentation of images, #poetry, and #artwork to help in natural flood management somewhere-nowhere.com/portfo…

We hosted the Landwise Natural Flood Management finale event this week. Over 40 project partners and researchers from organisations including @UniofReading, @CCRI_UK, @EnvAgency, @NaturalEngland & @FWAGAssoc came together to share their findings and to make future plans. 1/2

@ARKennet attended the @LandwiseNFM finale event this week. Interesting findings from research in our Thames catchments. Eg increasing organic matter in soil from 1-2% to 2-4% increases soil porosity from 41% to 51%. Meaning healthy soils store more water which reduces flooding

Summary of findings so far: Mature woodland = highest SOM, porosity, saturate hydraulic con discovery and NFM potential relative to arable and grassland use. Key = right trees in the right places! 🌲 🌳

Ramesh Ponmambalam is now presenting findings from broad-scale surveys from 48 farms. It was found that increasing SOM can increase soil porosity, with land use and management practices having a significant effect. #soilhealth #NFM
