Abstract/Summary

The India-UK Water Centre (IUKWC) promotes cooperation and collaboration between the complementary priorities of NERC-MoES water security research. This report documents and discusses activities undertaken during a Researcher Exchange funded by the India-UK Water Centre (IUKWC) on the topic of “The use of passive sampling devices to improve the monitoring of anthropogenic pollutants in river catchments in India”. This exchange enabled Professor Gary Fones, from the University of Portsmouth, UK to conduct a 12-day exchange visit hosted by Dr Pryinka Jamwal at the Ashoka Trust for Research in Ecology and the Environment (ATREE) in Bangalore, India from 8-19 May 2017. This report provides background on the rationale for conducting the research exchange on the topic of ‘Improving freshwater monitoring frameworks and data for research and management’, as well as a review of the objectives. This is followed by a description of the activities undertaken during the exchange and a summary of the themes and outcomes arising from a one day workshop conducted on the topic of ‘Surface water quality monitoring: Key issues, challenges and the way forward’
