What are we doing and why?

The overall objective of the Catchment Management for Water Quality project is to promote a change in culture towards greater collaborative working and improved accessibility and effective use of existing models and tools developed over many years and to encourage a move away from ‘silo management’ where each problem is addressed in isolation.

The aims of the Catchment Management for Water Quality project are:

• to provide better access to data and modelling through the development of a web-based data and modelling platform;
• to explore approaches to enable more integrated modelling to deliver holistic solutions for multiple pollutants, services & policies;
• to support the development of a community of practitioners, policy makers and scientists to develop future questions and encourage joint working.
