Elevator Pitch (50 Word or Less)
UKCEH is a world-leading centre for water science. We are home to over 500 environmental scientists, based across our four UK sites. Our water resources and hydro-climate specialists work closely with scientists studying pollution, land use, soils and biodiversity to solve complex environmental problems in a holistic way.
Describe your business.
Our science makes a difference, underpinning environmental policies, commercial innovation and conservation action all around the world. We play a key role in meeting national strategic needs, and work internationally to maximise the impact of our hydrological research.

For example we provide the industry standard method for assessing flood risk in the UK through the Flood Estimation Handbook. We collate the nation’s river flow data and analyse this to provide near real-time information on the state of UK water resources. Our land cover map is widely used for assessing past and present land cover across the UK. We carry out field monitoring and experimentation, laboratory analysis and predictive modelling to quantify the presence and impact of environmental contaminants.

Our activities provide state-of-the-art environmental data and expertise that industries, government agencies and regulators require to manage freshwater environments both in the UK and overseas.
