Modelling services
Building and running environmental models to estimate how a system behaves now and how it may respond to change.
What we do
Our services cover environmental modelling, spatial analysis and advisory support.
GIS
Mapping and spatial analysis of land use, soils, watersheds and other geographic data, to help show where processes and pressures occur.
Environmental advisory
Practical, evidence-based guidance on environmental questions, drawn from the relevant science and data.
Biogeochemistry models
Models of how elements such as carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and sulphur cycle through soils, water and vegetation.
Mass balance
Accounting for what goes into a system, what comes out, and what is stored, to identify sources, sinks and gaps in understanding.
Critical loads
Estimating how much deposition of pollutants such as acidifying or nutrient compounds an ecosystem can receive before harmful effects are expected.
Pollution management advisory
Advice on identifying pollution sources and pathways and on options to reduce impacts on soils and waters. We do not conduct site assessments, prepare or sign Records of Site Condition, or design remediation.
Literature review and synthesis
Finding, assessing and summarizing published research and reports into a summary of what is known and what remains uncertain.
Restoration planning and advisory
Advice on planning the recovery of degraded soils, waters and habitats, from setting goals to choosing approaches and tracking progress. We do not conduct site assessments, prepare or sign Records of Site Condition, or design cleanup works.
Agricultural advisory
General advice for farms and agricultural landscapes on nutrient management, soil health, reducing runoff and nutrient loss, and farm-scale mass balances. We do not prepare or certify nutrient management strategies or plans. Certified nutrient management consultants do that.
Climate advisory
Advice on climate risks and adaptation options for land and water systems, with context on greenhouse gas, carbon and nutrient fluxes drawn from the published science. We also synthesize research to inform climate policy and planning. Our role is advisory.
