Earlier today at #HyCRISTALAGM we shared our related projects to @FCFAhycristal to set in context all our ideas for future projects. Director Ros Cornforth and @BGSGroundwater's David Macdonald shared @SHEAR_Programme NIMFRU project and @BRAVE_UPGro respectively! @UPGroResearch – at Kampala, Uganda

There are a few places left for our open event. You'll have to be quick though, the registration deadline is 13th November! Maybe I can tempt you with some details of what we have planned....

Here in Birmingham representing @BritGeoSurvey at an Environment Agency workshop to draft a Flood Hydrology Road Map. It is to be used to 'develop an implementation plan for operational hydrology improvements and research in the EA'. Little short on groundwater people!

Touching tribute to our late @BritGeoSurvey colleague Ian Gale in this excellent review paper on Managed Aquifer Recharge
'Sixty years of global progress in Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR)' is an open access paper (with @UNIGRAC contribution) in the Hydrogeology Journal on what has been achieved over the last decades. ow.ly/aiOk30lKXXX #groundwater #aquifer #MAR #OpenAccess #publication

It's not often that #geology gets included in #jokes so we just had to share this one by @comedyLeo that was voted the second funniest at the #Edinburgh @freefringefest
