Results from an ongoing study in lowland streams in the New Forest
What is the project, who is involved, how its success be measured, the background and planned work
Research to understand woodland-water interactions to reduce diffuse pollution and improve water quality
Opportunity mapping has been developed to help identify these locations and promote more integrated catchment management.
Evaluating the effects of floodplain and riparian woodlands on flood flows
How the small-scale nature of silvicultural practices under continuous cover forestry may favour those factors that help to reduce flood flows
How the amount of water used by a forest and the timing of water flows are greatly influenced by the nature of silvicultural practices
Current research into the role of forestry in natural flood management
Summary of a range of research projects investigating soil carbon and nutrient stocks and pools and their dynamics, long term change and potential long term sequestration after woodland creation (afforestation).
Does whole-tree harvesting in comparison to conventional harvesting compromise soil nutrient supply in future rotations?
Photographs showing how large woody debris dams help to increase flood storage by creating an upstream pool and reconnecting streams with their floodplain
