PhD student @QMULGeography studying the hydrological and hydraulic impacts of rewilding 🦫🌳🌧 | @SoGLeeds BSc (Ind.) & MSc graduate 🌎 | He/him | Kendal/London.
Had a fantastic few days at #BSG25 in my old stomping ground of Leeds. Always fun meeting new people and catching up with friends! I am grateful to have had the opportunity to share some of my PhD work and receive valuable feedback and advice for the final sprint of my PhD.
The final session of #BSG25 focused on rivers 🌧️ including beaver restoration, oxbow lake geomorphology, the impacts of rewilding and controls on river flow sensitivity!

Thanks to all our speakers for an excellent first session featuring fluvial systems from the lab scale and North Pennines all the way to New Zealand and large scale remote sensing. A great showcase of river networks incl. erosive bedrock systems and widespread aggradation from cyclones. 🌊💦 #BSG25

Straight from the whirlwind of the European Geosciences Union conference to the tranquility of one of my favourite places and field sites, Ennerdale, allowed me time to reflect on a cracking week in Vienna. It was my first time attending and presenting to a large audience and I enjoyed every minute!

The technicians at Queen Mary have been invaluable during my PhD. From sourcing kit, to assisting in the field and the labs, to providing help and insight I probably wouldn't have received otherwise. It's fair to say I owe a lot to the Geography technicians. Pay them more and provide more support.
Without technicians, I wouldn't ever have been able to collect any research data. They perform an absolutely critical function in research and need valuing and appreciating more
My piece for @productivity.bsky.social about the importance of technicians. We won't deliver growth and opporotunity without enough of them in our labs and across universities and schools. It's an urgent conversation to have www.productivity.ac.uk/news/the-rol...

(Re)introducing myself for Bluesky! My name is Adam and I'm a PhD student researching the impacts of landscape rewilding on flooding and drought at QMUL. Hoping to move further away from the toxicity of Twitter and will begin posting research updates here!
