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

Possible Future for Rural East Africa under a changing climate. Download the @FCFAhycristal infographic here: buff.ly/2HirFbh and read the brief here: buff.ly/2JjFZUi #climatechange #FCFA #Africa
This work is being led by Makerere University, in collaboration with @BGSGroundwater and @UPGroResearch project TGroup
David Macdonald detailing the applications of Kampala Met data by developing a hydro geological model of Kampala to monitor spring flow. @FCFAhycristal #climatechange #HyCRISTALAGM #water #africa
In Kampala presenting the BGS and Uganda Ministry of Water & Environment work on the @fcfahycristel project. Looking forward to hearing about the novel climate science being undertaken in East Africa by Met Office and others

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....
Visual minutes taken at the @NERC_NFM #landwisenfm conference today. They started with a blank canvas!

... Callist is on IAH's Council, being Vice President for Sub-Saharan Africa. 😀🇺🇬#GWConference2018 🇿🇦 @iahgroundwater - the world-wide #groundwater organisation 🌍
Our keynote speaker Dr Callist Tindimugaya, Directorate of Water and Resources Management, Uganda speaking on qGroundwater and African National Development Strategies #GWConference2018
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

Really happy that our paper on the relationship between rural groundwater use and rainfall has been accepted by Science of The Total Environment:

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

Regulating #groundwater use, alternative #water supplies, managed #aquifer recharge. Just some of the actions that could help stop Jakarta sinking & flooding so fast bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-44…
