Measurement and Instrumentation

Our philosophy ‘to measure, to model, to manage’ requires accurate measurements of hydrological parameters in the vadose zone and the underlying groundwater.

 

To ensure high-quality data sets, the selection, testing, and improvement of measurement techniques is therefore given a high priority in the initial stages of research projects.
