This project used current best practice and research to update the Saltmarsh Management Manual for managing flood risk.
This project made recommendations for possible ways of developing the flood warnings service using new advances in technology.
A project to investigate what type of communications will improve public understanding of flood risk and encourage people to take action.
We’re working out how to measure changes in resilience to flooding and coastal change over time.
Results of the Estuaries Research Programme (ERP2): development and dissemination
This project ran fine grid models to forecast water surges and compared them to surge data from two different sets of gauges to strengthen existing data.
An assessment of how vulnerable coastal defences might become as a result of climate change between 2000 and 2075.
A project estimating changes in absolute and extreme sea levels between 1990 and 2075
Information about the management and control of invasive species and aquatic plants in UK rivers and watercourses.
This research determined the distribution and severity of the root disease (Phytophthora) affecting Alder trees and explored methods for its management.
This project provided guidance on the different real-time models available as part of a suite of projects examining different sources of flooding.
This project explored the processes involved in the erosion process known as toe scour, and provided initial guidance on minimising its effects.
Evidence on the attitudes of householders towards measures to save water that can be retrofitted to existing properties.
A study exploring ways to assess the performance and reliability of flood and coastal defences to make better assessments of risk.
This project is producing new tools and guidance to help Risk Management Authorities optimise maintenance costs over the whole life of the asset and help reduce energy demands.
This study established best practice and set out a framework of tools (including the Risk Assessment for Coastal Erosion RACE method) and scientific research to support managers.
This project provides an evaluation of the Property Flood Resilience repair grant scheme and makes recommendation for improvement.
This project assessed how dredging sediment off shore affects the stability of the near shore, as well as beach landscapes, flood defences, erosion and ecology.
Explores methods to identify potential efficiency improvements by comparing local maintenance costs of flood risk management assets.
We’re a collaborative research and development programme between the Environment Agency, Defra, Welsh Government and Natural Resources Wales.
