Water and Geoscience
Water and sediments are the foundation of life. Careful planning and management of catchments, these essential resources and our interactions with them supports long-term resilience and cost effective solutions, reduces the risks posed by flooding, pollution and erosion and enhances opportunities for biodiversity and recreation. Water and soils/sediments are key for our food security, are a vital store for carbon and are a foundation for ecosystems. Managing soils, habitats and preventing erosion ensures agricultural opportunities are not limited and habitats and valued landforms are preserved. A wide range of technical and practical skills are key to successful water and soil/sediment management. Johns Associates offers a broad range of skills and services in this area.
Our team undertakes a range of investigations, data analysis, mapping, design work and research. We use this approach to understand complex water, soil and sediment processes and conditions to find the most appropriate solution. In this way, we can lead you through the technical elements of how to manage and sustainably use these key resources for the future.
