Recharge and Soil Moisture Dynamics: Improving Groundwater Models and Geohazard Assessment
Groundwater is a critical water resource in the UK and globally. Its effective management and protection depend on robust hydrogeological judgement supported by scientific calculations that quantify the water budget and simulate groundwater flow. Recharge is the primary driver of hydrological models and a parameter that must be defined at the very start of any…

Protecting Scotland’s groundwater quality
This webinar provides an overview of the new groundwater quality standards for Scotland, including the key changes to Scottish Environment Protection Agency’s (SEPA’s) associated guidance on assigning groundwater criteria for pollutant inputs, and on land contamination impacts on the water environment. This updated guidance is relevant to hydrogeological risk assessments in support of planning applications,…
