Biography
Sim M. Reaney is Assistant Professor in the Department of Geography
Research Interest
Sim Reaney’s research is centred on hydrology and the representation of hydrological processes within both simulation models and geospatial analysis. He works on the impact of diffuse pollution from the landscape on water quality, catchment hydrological processes and landscape based approaches to flood risk management (Natural Flood Risk Management or NFM). The water quality work spans sediment, nutrients (N and P) and microbial pollution. The connection between these different areas of work is the concept of hydrological connectivity. The testing and representation of how different parts of the landscape connect via hydrological pathways is key to the understanding of these different environmental pressures.
