Innovative Water Pollution Monitoring Initiatives

The University of Southampton secures funding to develop technologies for monitoring water pollution, focusing on enhancing measurement capabilities for pollutants. Projects are part of a £12 million investment by NERC and Defra, targeting biodiversity, water quality, soil health, and greenhouse gas emissions. Specific projects led by Professor Xize Niu and Dr. Adrian Nightingale stand out for innovative approaches to monitoring nutrients and detecting contaminants in water.
