Professor Andrew Binley is a distinguished academic at Lancaster University, where he is affiliated with the Lancaster Environment Centre within the Faculty of Science and Technology. His extensive career has been dedicated to advancing the understanding of subsurface fluid dynamics, particularly through the integration of geophysical and hydrological approaches. He has held significant leadership roles including Head of the Environmental Science Department (2006-2009) and Associate Dean for Resources in the Faculty of Science and Technology (2012-2018). Andrew's research focuses on improved understanding of the storage, transport and exchange of fluids within the subsurface environment. His early work targeted the modelling of rainfall runoff processes, which led to the Generalised Likelihood Uncertainty Estimation (GLUE) methodology (Beven and Binley, 1992) for model uncertainty estimation. This triggered his research path in hydrogeophysics, with a core aim of exploiting data rich geophysical techniques for constraining the uncertainty in hydrological models. An active theme of his research over the past 20 years is the exchange of groundwater and surface water through fundamental, process-based investigations, often driven by the need to understand the fate of legacy nitrate in groundwater. This work has been complemented by research on large-scale vadose zone nitrate storage and delivery to deep groundwater. His research also includes investigation of plant-soil-water interactions, including geophysics-based phenotyping of plant root function and the influence of root development on soil hydraulic properties. Professor Binley has developed and applied geophysical approaches to a wide range of groundwater-related problems from lab- to field-scale. His most recent publications demonstrate continued innovation in hydrogeophysical methods, with emphasis on electrical resistivity tomography, induced polarization techniques, and coupled hydrogeophysical modeling. These works address critical environmental challenges including landslide monitoring, nutrient transport in agricultural landscapes, and sustainable management of water resources in critical zones.
