Project RMP5455: Slowing the Flow at Pickering, Final Report to Defra, Forest Research |
The Project 'Slowing the Flow at Pickering' implements multiple natural flood risk measures including low level bunds, large woody debris dams, planting riparian and floodplain woodland, planting farm woodland, blocking moorland drains and establishing no-burn buffer zones, blocking forest drains and implementing farm-scale measures. The aim of the project is to show how land management measures can help to reduce flood risk from a river in the town and is implemented in close cooperation with local stakeholders. The project involved both the Pickering Beck and adjacent River Seven catchments, the description of measures described below relate to the former. |

Potential Use of Runoff Attenuation Features in small Rural Catchments for Flood Mitigation |
Development of a number of small scale, low cost soft engineered flood reduction schemes, designed to store/attenuate rapid runoff in small rural catchments. Design and implimentation of a network of 35 NWRM measures in a Northumberland catchment. To aid understanding of how features impact on downstream flood hazard. |

A framework for managing runoff and pollution in the rural landscape using a Catchment Systems Engineering approach |
Here a framework for applying a CSE approach to the catchment is shownin a step by step guide to implementing mitigation measures in the Belford Burn catchment. The framework is based around engagement with catchment stakeholders. |

Bosco Limite |
Land use change of a maize-cutivated area, with the costitution of a lowland forest of 25000 square meters. The aim is to create an ecological corridor for the neighboring Nature 2000 Area, with wetlands. Moreover, Bosco Limite is a sperimental project for the groundwater recharge. |
