It's bedform week in Loughborough!

Our second year geomorphologists are getting to grips with the concept of Thresholds through a nice flume experiment!

@lborouniversity.bsky.social

We're ready for the @lborouniversity.bsky.social Open Days tomorrow & Saturday!

Looking forward to meeting lots of prospective Lboro Geographers!

#LboroOpenDay

First day at Flood & Coast with #FloodCDT

Alan Lovell, Chair of the Environment Agency, opening the conference by setting out the context for the flood sector and future #resilience.

Recent flooding examples local to @lborouniversity.bsky.social featuring heavily.

*New #OA Paper*

Erosion dynamics in carbonate bedrock channels inhibit weathering processes

How does dissolution impact rock erodibility throughout river cross-sections? We explore that question here, just out in ESPL: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

Spot the difference?

Same bar, 14 months apart.

Fascinating change documented by @dwhit.bsky.social for his final PhD chapter!

@sterice.bsky.social @centa.bsky.social

Excited to be heading up to Lincoln this evening to talk to the local branch of the Geographical Association. Always fun to talk about waterfalls to interested Geographers!

🤣

Always a pleasure to visit Géosciences Rennes, this time supporting Will Norriss' PhD experiments on bedrock channel evolution in response to constant forcing conditions.

Beautiful day in the Peak District, investigating gravel bar sediment structures with David Whitfield. Lots of change post highest stage level since February in recent weeks!

Bedform fun with our 2nd year geomorphologists! Exploring the concept of thresholds.

*Call for Abstracts* British Society for Geomorphology Annual Conference!

Hosted at Loughborough University 2-5 Sept 2024
