Collaborating research institutes, centres and groups

Environmental Change and Sustainability

We carry out geospatial analysis and experimentation to understand environmental change and potential solutions.

GeoData

We manage, analyse and process environmental data. Our consultancy services and interdisciplinary research projects range from managing river catchments and coastal zones to the wider fields of environment, social and economic development.

Landscape Dynamics and Ecology

Researching the changing environments and landscapes using the appliction of novel methodological approaches.

Physical Oceanography

The research group explores patterns of change and variability in satellite and in-situ measurements of surface temperature, sea level and productivity.
