Understanding soil structure and soil and moisture dynamics in UK and African soils and the effects of increasing human populations, changing climates and the intensification in the use of our soils.
As part of the UK Natural Hazards Partnership ‘Daily Hazard Assessment’, BGS contributes a daily assessment of landslide hazard across Great Britain
The BGS is investigating how shallow groundwater levels may affect crop yield.
Recent work on phosphorus contamination in, and the role of soils on its transfer to, river sediments in the UK.
BGS worked with National Grid to undertake a screening exercise to identify potential geological and flooding hazards that might impact their network.
Geological processes in the UK during the Quaternary have to varying degrees affected the properties and behaviour of the shallow subsurface geology.
The BGS and partners are developing an understanding of the interaction between public water supply systems, sewage systems, traditional water tanks and groundwater.
