 research
The Water Resource Systems Research Laboratory is delivering a unique combination of climate, catchment and coastal modelling, together with advanced hydroinformatics, risk analysis and decision support tools. Computational and statistical research is backed by a long-term commitment to field experimentation at a range of scales, which provides the data necessary to pioneer process understanding and underpin model validation. Scientific achievements have been converted into tools to transform industry practice and our system-scale perspective is shaping the policy agenda. In tandem, the Centre for Land Use and Water Resources Research (CLUWRR, located in IRES for interdisciplinary working) is having remarkable impact in the developing world, where it successfully integrates bio-physical and socio-economic research to tackle water management challenges set out in the Millennium Development Goals.
