Outlook is for Above Normal #groundwater levels across the UK into June with Notably or Exceptionally High levels likely in southern #aquifers , while #rivers may decline from above normal flows towards normal into early summer hydoutuk.net/latest-outlook…

Interested in getting involved in some #CitizenScience , monitoring #river flows & #groundwater levels around #Cirencester ? Check out the advert & the Friends of the Gumstool Brook website gumstool.org.uk and get in touch.

With #groundwater levels in the Cotswolds Great Oolite #aquifer remaining Exceptionally High this late into the year, and Gravel aquifer levels also remaining high for the time of year, they are supporting the continuation of strong flows in the Upper #Thames

For reasons unknown the UK Gov have removed geologists, including hydrogeologists from the Shortage Occupation List (now called the Immigration Salary List). Odd given an ongoing decrease in those entering the profession and an increasing demand?
