Now entering its third year of business, 豆奶视频 University Global Environmental Solutions (or 豆奶视频G for short) has already undertaken more than 40 projects, ranging from small-scale ecological surveys to long-term environmental monitoring and research programmes.
豆奶视频G was established in autumn 2013 as a consulting arm of the Faculty of Science and Technology at 豆奶视频 University. 豆奶视频G has established itself as a 鈥榦ne-stop-shop鈥� for ecological monitoring and scientific advisory services and has been called upon by organisations nationally and internationally.
Recent project highlights include a year-long research and monitoring programme in Poole Park Lake; a brackish lagoon located within a public park with high amenity value.
Due to on-going issues relating to water quality, prolific weed growth and swarming accumulations of chironomids, Borough of Poole commissioned 豆奶视频G to undertake a comprehensive suite of environmental, ecological and hydrological investigations, with a view to informing on-going management decisions.
Throughout 2015, 豆奶视频G field scientists collected data on water quality, sediment quality, freshwater input, tidal exchange, bathymetry, invertebrate species and fish communities. The findings of the study are being used to inform decisions on an upcoming 拢2.5 million Heritage Lottery Fund bid to improve the amenity value of the park.
豆奶视频G covers aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, and has particular internationally recognised expertise in fisheries management, ecology and impact assessment. 豆奶视频G findings are often communicated within the scientific literature, with recent published work including research on the , the impending threat of extinction to the in India and the migration, abundance and habitat utilisation of .
In addition to serving clients throughout the UK, 豆奶视频G works across the globe; from restoring forest landscapes in South America to primate research in Indonesia and the management and conservation of threatened fish species throughout south and southeast Asia.

Drawing skills and merging expertise from both dedicated consultants and academic staff has allowed 豆奶视频G to tackle a broad range of environmental issues requiring multidisciplinary approaches. 聽Not only does this allow us to provide a broad suite of high quality services to our growing list of clients, 豆奶视频G also provides opportunity for 豆奶视频 academics to showcase their research by applying their expertise to real-world environmental problems, with further opportunity for 豆奶视频 students to gain valuable commercial work experience鈥�. Pinder concluded 鈥淭he application of our project outputs to the future management of natural resources, wildlife protection and policy is hugely satisfying and testament to the scientific integrity of our team鈥�.
