  Easter Beltie Ecological Restoration Monitoring Research : 2022-27. This project aims to: a) Develop a multi-scale empirical understanding of the impact of nature based solution (NBS) based on hydrological, hydro-geomorphic, biogeochemical and ecological observations; b) Assess the water-related ecosystem services of a selection of NBS approaches on our landscapes and suggest ways in which the benefits can be enhanced; c) Assess the state of river corridors and their role in combating climate change, via ES impact indicator groups; d) Understand how to achieve transformative change via NBS that deliver multiple benefits and works across multiple sectors and scales.
