A team of six scientists from the University of Leeds will participate in the workshop with Illinois researchers to compare different approaches to address climate uncertainty and the impacts on water resources. The group is affiliated with Water@leeds, the largest university-based water research center in the UK. They work on many of the same problems facing Illinois, including emerging contaminants, wetland hydrology, nutrient dynamics in rivers, water quality standards, and agricultural land management.
