Yes, Reddit is among the open last vestiges of open internet. Though sounds likes also just an open pit mine for AI training. Yay. Are you a bot?

Haha, that’s right. One AI platform blaiming another for stealing from it the data it stole.

Looks like a fascinating book!

Always down to infodump on river stuff haha. I agree with you. I think we all kind of call valley bottoms floodplains. They were created by flooding. Terrace vs active floodplain does get a bit esoteric

Climate change uncertainty, and our short time frame of memory/records further muddies the water. It is really an abandoned flood terrace or have we just not seen it flooded yet. Or is it soon to be active again.

I ponder floodplains a lot. Its complicated. fp’s for flood mapping have been tangled up with something like a large 100year event. In terms of geomorph, most of that is an old flood terrace from a previous river phase. The active fp is much smaller. Sometimes they are same in young rivers.

Wow that's cool!
