An international research team has developed a new research approach for analysing pollutants in water, thanks to the findings of their pilot scheme investigating hydrogeochemical dynamics along the entire length of India’s River Ganges (Ganga).

New press coverage in India on our recent work in Bihar on arsenic & uranium in #groundwater - joint Indo-UK work with @UoM_EES & Mahavir Cancer Sansthan for #FARGANGA, supported by @NERCscience @IndiaDST. Original research: doi:10.3390/ijerph17072500 https://t.co/UsO4SPmc5v

[Earth Sciences at the University of Manchester @UoM_EES]

And another exciting new paper! Academics of @UoM_EES are on fire!

[Laura Richards @DrLauraRichards]

New joint publication out on #arsenic & #uranium in Bihar, India in @IJERPH_MDPI with @UoM_EES & Mahavir Cancer Sansthan for UK-India water quality project #FARGANGA @NERCscience @IndiaDST. Good reminder of fieldwork adventures, mangos & 100s of samples!
