Analytical Laboratory

This research facility occupies various rooms within an extensive laboratory suite. There are a variety of high-precision analytical instruments which are used to analyse a variety of environmental samples including water and sediment. These facilities are overseen and supported by a team of dedicated technical staff. Constant investment into the analytical facilities provides the laboratories with state-of-the-art equipment for both teaching and research use.

Contaminated land and marine ecosystems

Researchers within the School have built strong interdisciplinary connections to explore ecosystems at risk due to climate change and anthropogenic factors. Research links have been established allowing students access to London based and country sites for sample collection; assessing current ecosystem services and post-restoration functioning. Students are provided with both field and laboratory analytical equipment enabling a range of techniques to be employed.

Aquatic and terrestrial environments

Leading world researchers from the School of Geography, in collaboration with the School of Biological and Behavioural Sciences, provide students with a contemporary approach to investigating environmental sciences. A range of instruments are available for a variety of environmental applications; from the analysis of nutrient cycling in rivers to greenhouse gasses in London.
