Welcome
Welcome to TerraChem, a three year project (2023-2026), working to understand chemical pollution in terrestrial wildlife in Europe.
We bring together real-world monitoring, modelling of chemicals, source-to-damage pathways, applications for chemicals risk prevention and mitigation, and big data management for early warning of emerging chemical risks.
Together, this offers a new systems approach to reduce harm to wildlife (and humans) from chemicals in the terrestrial environment in Europe, in support of the EU zero pollution ambition.
