The science
-
Is it making a difference?
The health of our waterways depends on the local geography and the way we use our land. Long-term monitoring of our waterways is undertaken for a range of indicators so we can understand the health of our water ecosystems and how they are changing over time. Here you can explore the results from long-term monitoring programmes by regional councils, unitary authorities and others.
