Research aiming to improve our understanding of the effect of watercourse management actions on river sediment and habitats.
This project developed a prototype system for managing water catchments, linking together models of the mechanics and behaviour of water.
This project has shown the need for effective software standards in FCERM and has made progress towards identifying a future framework for RASP system architecture.
This guidance helps asset managers assess flood and coastal defence assets to determine levels of deterioration and residual life.
This study explored the best of communicating flood risk forecasts involving a probability calculation for various types of audience.
A project encouraging the best use of land breached for flood and coastal defence by making better predictions about the type of habitat that will succeed.
Research to measure long-term changes in land and sea levels around the coast of Great Britain and along the Thames Estuary and River Thames.
A project exploring the benefits of reviewing flood management activities after a flood event, and providing guidance on best practice.
This project developed better ways of estimating how often extreme water levels might happen by combining all the factors that cause them.
This report sets out all the research planned or carried out to improve the way in which large-scale models can help understand the factors involved in flood risk.
A project exploring low cost ways of making it easier for properties to recover from floods, as well as the reasons why people might not use them.
A project delivering a software tool to estimate afflux to improve our understanding of the effects of in-channel structures on flood water levels at high flows.
A project delivering a prototype MAST tool for considering and mapping all sources of flood risk.
Developing and testing a new method that produces improved rainfall forecasts to help our prediction of flood events.
A comprehensive programme of research to allow flood and coastal erosion risk management to be carried out sustainably, improving the environment for people and wildlife.
A manual to maximise the effectiveness of all new trash screens and minimise ongoing maintenance
This project identified ways to assess and predict where river channels are affected by geomorphological change across England and Wales.
A project to develop a vision and strategic direction for Broad Scale Modelling (BSM) in flood risk management.
New tools and techniques to help us detect and take account of non-stationarity in flood frequency estimation for flood scheme appraisal.
First published during the 2019 to 2022 Johnson Conservative government
This project developed a new framework to use when carrying out analysis of how estuaries will behave in the medium and long term.
