CEH is the UK's Centre of Excellence for research in land and freshwater environmental sciences. It was formed in 2000 by merging four long-established research institutes. To transition to sustainability, CEH reduced staff from 600 to 450 and sites from 9 to 4 over 4 years. CEH's goal is to be the world-leading centre for integrated science in terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems to achieve environmental sustainability.
