Over 30 delegates from 15 partner organisers attended our Monitoring & Modelling workshop Birmingham on 7th March 2018. This activity was organised by our Monitoring & Modelling Task and Finish Group.

The purpose of the workshop was to foster relations between monitoring and modelling communities within UKEOF partner organisations to promote two way interaction. In particular, the role of modelling in helping to design monitoring programmes was explored.

The main outcomes from the workshop included knowledge exchange over good practice, greater understanding of monitoring/modelling and awareness of the efficiencies and opportunities afforded by innovative monitoring. We also identified opportunities for enhanced engagement between monitoring and modelling communities, priorities for future activities (including research), and where UKEOF can facilitate.

The workshop agenda is available here. Slides of presentations are listed below. A follow-up webinar took place in July 2018.
