Prospective doctoral researchers, would you like to work in the Peruvian Andes to develop new #hydrology understanding of high-altitude #mountain wetlands? Check out our new CENTA PhD here: centa.ac.uk/studentship/wa… freshwaterflows Wouter Buytaert British Geological Survey Geography Birmingham


We have a vacancy for a Groundwater Modeller to join our team British Geological Survey. Lots of interesting projects seeking to understand #groundwater systems in the UK and around the world supporting their sustainable management. Apply by 28 Feb: bgs.ac.uk/download/vacan… Please RT



Great to lead this piece of work for British Geological Survey and continue our collaborative efforts in groundwater forecasting with Met Office and Environment Agency x.com/BritGeoSurvey/…


The eFLaG projections are launched!! Great to see these projections available following lots of hard work these last two years. Collab across UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, BGSGroundwater, HR Wallingford - thanks to this superb team (see author list below: paper available in Earth Syst Sci Data)


Working in partnership with UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology we've improved projections for for rainfall, river flows & groundwater levels in the UK til 2080. This will enable stakeholders to better prepare for impacts of future climate change & water availability. More here: ow.ly/NKZ050IbWXa


How is ice ablation controlled by natural and anthropogenic particles in #glaciers? Fancy getting paid to find out? Check out this PhD opportunity: tinyurl.com/2s39rvpr Lancaster University British Geological Survey

"Assessing mountain water security requires better understanding of the complex interaction between glacial meltwater and coupled human–natural systems."🏔️🚰 👉New paper out in Nature Sustainability led by EClim Research Group Wouter Buytaert Jon Mackay freshwaterflows nature.com/articles/s4189…

A collaboration between Imperial College London, Uni of Birmingham & BGS sets out how the world’s mountains play a fundamental role in providing fresh water to millions but as temperatures rise supply from these systems is likely become more variable. More: imperial.ac.uk/news/241253/wo… #COP27
