Water Analysis Service
The Chemical Analysis Laboratory at Alice Holt Research Station has been analysing aqueous environmental samples for more than 20 years. Our customers today are fellow researchers from within Forest Research and other research institutions as well as private customers. View price list Water analysis is required for various interests such as: - Effluents, Surface waters (rivers, streams and lakes), Potable waters (tap waters, wells and springs)
- Forest health monitoring
An intensive long term monitoring programme of forest ecosystems was initiated in 1994 under European legislation after concerns of widespread decline of forests across Europe. Rainfall, throughfall (water through forest canopy) and soil solution samples from different monitoring plots are analysed. - Environmental monitoring
The Environmental Change Network (ECN) is an integrated monitoring programme, which provides a network of sites in the UK where comparable environmental measurements are made in order to detect environmental change and its effects across the UK. Rainfall and soil solution samples are analysed. - Forest hydrology
Forest Hydrology studies the effects of forests and forestry management practices on the freshwater environment (e.g. increased turbidity and siltation; impact of aerial fertiliser applications; enhanced capture of acid deposition by forest canopies leading to further surface water acidification, nitrate concentrations within ground waters).
Analyses are performed on a regular basis. Response time is variable depending on work load and season of the year. 2008 prices including VATIf your required analysis is not listed below, please contact us as we have not listed all the tests available. We can also offer a discount depending on the number of samples sent for analysis. | Test | Analysis | Price |
