I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Geography and Co-Director of the Institute of Hazard, Risk and Resilience at Durham University. My research focuses on hydrological dynamics, simulation of environmental processes and water-based risks. These water-based risks include diffuse pollution impacts on water quality and projected climate change impacts on water resources, low flows and flooding.
A new ESRC research project investigating the economic benefits of diffuse pollution mitigation targeting is using SCIMAP. Read More »Economic benefits of diffuse pollution mitigation targeting
