Valuing flood regulation services for natural capital accounts
Forests have long been associated with an ability to reduce flood flows, however valuing the contribution that forest cover makes to downstream flood alleviation is very difficult given the multiple factors and associated uncertainties involved. Despite a strong understanding of the processes by which woods and trees affect the generation and...

Role of natural flood management in flood risk reduction along highways network
This project investigates the potential to use green infrastructure (including woodland planting) to deliver a sustainable approach to managing flood risk. The strategic road network in England faces a significant increase to disruption and risk of injury due to flooding. Predicted changes in rainfall linked to climate change will require improved...
Research

Woodland Creation and Expansion – Programme 6
This research aims to find out how to expand woodland cover in a way that maximises ecological and social benefits. The programme complements the other six programmes and follows collaborative principles to produce tools which support land managers, stakeholders and policy makers to increase engagement with woodland creation activities
Research

Assessing the Decay and Integrity of Timber Structures used for Natural Flood Management
Timber structures placed in watercourses and on their floodplains are effective NFM measures, restricting the flow and potentially holding large volumes of water during flood events, helping to reduce downstream flood risk. In an environment where constant wetting and drying occurs, timbers used for NFM measures have a high susceptibility...

Forest hydrology – PhD studentships
Phd Students asociated with the Forest Hydrology research programme.

Valuing tree and forest ecosystem services
Our research explores the value of different tree and forest ecosystem services and uses innovative methods to identify and capture those values
Research

Valuing and governing tree and forest ecosystem services
This research provides new insights into how to recognise and understand the value of ecosystem services provided by trees and forests.
Research

Land management in lowland catchments for integrated flood risk reduction
The LANDWISE project is a collaboration of academics, policy makers and practitioners to investigate the impact of land use and management on flood risk in the Upper Thames catchment. It will quantify through measurement and modelling by how much, where and how the flood risk benefits can be up-scaled from local to river basin level.
Research

Training Schools
Training Schools aim to facilitate capacity building on a topic relevant to the theme of the respective COST Action through the delivery of intensive training on a new or emerging subject. They can also offer familiarisation with unique equipment or expertise and are typically, although not exclusively, considered to be...

SCALEFORES: Scaling Rules For Ecosystem Service Mapping
We are working with Southampton University and the Centre for Ecology and Hydrology to develop and test novel modelling frameworks to explore the drivers of ecosystem services at different spatial scales in order to predict and map their delivery.
Research

The effects of peatland restoration on water quality
We are investigating the effects of peatland restoration by deforestation on nutrient and carbon transport to the water environment.
Research

Woodland creation and soil carbon and nutrient dynamics
Summary of a range of research projects investigating soil carbon and nutrient stocks and pools and their dynamics, long term change and potential long term sequestration after woodland creation (afforestation).
Research

Impacts of forest fertilisation on water quality
This project aims to monitor the effects of aerial and hand forest fertiliser applications on water quality in sensitive water catchments.

Forestry and Water Quality
Research to understand woodland-water interactions to reduce diffuse pollution and improve water quality
Research

Woodland and Natural Flood Management
Review of research, demonstration and monitoring projects, involving the implementation of woodland measures in the context of natural flood management, undertaken in the UK since 2000.

Opportunity mapping for targeting grant aid for water benefits
Brief introduction to the targeting of Countryside Stewardship woodland capital grants in England
Research

Opportunity mapping – targeting woodland creation for water objectives
Opportunity mapping has been developed to help identify these locations and promote more integrated catchment management.
