- Abstract:
- This proposal addresses the scientific and management issues associated with surface and groundwater quality through integration of the LOCAR monitoring data, supplementary experiments, natural tracer analysis and numerical model development. It will establish the main hydrological and hydrogeological controls on groundwater and surface water quality (including chemical transformations and flowpaths of the principal nutrients) based on intensive studies in the Pang/Lambourn catchments, produce an integrated modelling system describing the hydrochemical and nutrient functioning of lowland permeable catchments as a framework for sustainable river ecosystem management, and test the models for the other LOCAR catchments, the Tern and the Frome.
