Abstract

A key theme of the recent review of the joint Defra/Environment Agency Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management (FCERM) research programme was the need to do more to ensure a greater uptake of research outputs, both within the Environment Agency and the wider industry. Much has been done to address this in terms of the learning process and the requirements for good uptake. However, achieving consistent success in the appropriate uptake of science findings remains a significant challenge. This paper aims to identify some of these issues and put forward some suggestions for good practice that may help to achieve this goal.
