Today marks the #SummerSolstice in the northern hemisphere. Our data visualisation expert @neilrkaye has animated the path of the #sun at this time of year ☀️️🌍
Interested in learning about the importance of #groundwater, how it can influence river flow & why it needs protection? Check out our website groundwateruk.org & download our e-book
Just because it's been a rainy weekend watch our latest #drought myth-busting video - Dry winters drive summer droughts: True or False? @NERCscience @EnvAgency @thameswater @CEHScienceNews @DefraGovUK @FarmersWeekly @YorkshireWater @UWEBristol @Waterwise bit.ly/2K3iz5V
@EnvAgency @WaterUK @NFUtweets @DefraWater @WaterWatchdog @metoffice @NaturalEngland @Ofwat @CanalRiverTrust @AnglingTrust @JamesBevanEA Don’t forget about #groundwater! Groundwater is a large proportion of the water we drink out of our taps in England & Wales. On average about 34% of people drink #groundwater but this does vary regionally across our #aquifers
Today the National Drought Group collectively asked industry and the public to use #water wisely. Water from your tap is taken from #rivers and reservoirs - the amount we use has direct impact on #wildlife, #ecology, the #environment and #agriculture gov.uk/government/new…
It’s #WorldEnvironmentDay 🌎! An estimated 700,000 plastic bottles are littered every day in the UK. This year switch to a reusable bottle and help keep plastic out of our oceans. Download the FREE Refill app here, and join the #RefillRevolution today: bit.ly/get-the-refill…
What's the weather like where you are? 🌡️ Many southern areas are hot and humid 🌧️ It's fresher further north with cloudier skies and patchy rain
Another interesting #groundwater impact analysis that I should make time to read. Much focus on climate impact on future #water supply demand balance in UK, but how much consideration should conceptualisation of #hydrogeology get🤔 Should get an insight here......

As a scientist & CEO, I believe we must work together to solve important issues like plastic pollution, deforestation & mosquito-borne disease. Will you join me? Follow 👇
As rainwater percolates through waste in a #landfill site it dissolves soluble chemical/microbial #contaminants forming liquid #leachate-Legacy of old historic landfill means they are not lined unlike todays modern permitted sites so leachate is able to migrate in a plume offsite
Want to see latest #groundwater level 3 month outlook May-July 19? @BritGeoSurvey provide forecasts for levels from 25 sites across UK. Models use rainfall/evaporation data & are calibrated against past observations of groundwater levels. May 2019 forecast bit.ly/2vSznmV
#Cotswold #JurassicLimestone principal #aquifer up-close is made from spherical grains about 1 mm in diameter called 'Ooliths' formed in tropical seas! Ooliths are concentric layers of calcium carbonate surrounding a sand grain nucleus or shell fragment held together with cement
‘Groundwater zones’ #Groundwater is water held in pore spaces in rocks beneath our feet below the ‘water table’. Groundwater originates from rainfall & infiltrates down through ‘soil zone’ into the #rocks reaching the ‘saturated zone’. Eventually it discharges into #river valleys
Dry, hot summer in 2018, then not enough snow & #groundwater levels are below normal in parts of Sweden with hosepipe ban already in place in some areas thelocal.se/20190425/swede… via @TheLocalSweden Not so bad in UK as yet.........
As #StormHannah moves eastwards we've probably seen the strongest winds, but gusts over 60 mph are still possible around exposed parts today
This is what #chalk is made from-tiny little accumulations of minute calcite shells & fragments of algae called #coccoliths Quite amazing to think that #rock is made of such things. This #electronmicroscope image is proof that algae are the building blocks for our chalk aquifers!
I’ve just been to the civic amenity (dump) to recycle some cardboard. They wanted photo id, post code and proof of address. Today I saw an article about 150 tons of waste dumped on public ground nearby - £92,000 to clear. Shouldn’t we be encouraging use of the facilities?
Get sense of exasperation from this Iranian #groundwater resources manager explaining above average rainfall this year won't recover #aquifer storage lost during preceding dry weather & potentially over-abstraction tehrantimes.com/news/435031/ Raising awareness of the #water cycle
