Along the north US Atlantic coast in places like Maine, the geomorphic impacts of ice in tidal marshes is well-documented. Ice is much less common in estuaries farther south - I wonder how it might impact some Chesapeake marshes in particular that are barely holding on.
How #cold has it been in the mid-Atlantic? Cold enough that the National Ice Center is tracking ice formation in area waterways. 🧊🥶

Looks excellent - esp this second LIDAR - i ran it past GPT and it estimates 121 certain mounds and 19 probable mounds - if you look at the alt text I added to this image you will see its methods and rationale for these numbers

🐟The unique geomorphology of rivers in the eastern #Himalaya has long intrigued geologists.
🐟Here, Sui et al. use a cold-adapted #fish genus as a biogeographic proxy to reconstruct the evolutionary history of one such river.

From extraction to recovery: Geomorphic and social transformations of gravel mining, Lubha River, Northeast Bangladesh
From extraction to recovery: Geomorphic and social transformations of gravel mining, Lubha River, Northeast Bangladesh
Intensive gravel mining fundamentally reshapes river channels and communities in a rural Bangladeshi catchment, but recovery is uneven once extraction stops. Combining multi-decadal satellite imagery with resident interviews, we show that mining rates often exceed natural sediment supply, active channels can recover within a few years, yet deep floodplain pits and social disruption persist. These insights provide an evidence base for designing fairer, more sustainable sediment extraction policies in Bangladesh and other rapidly developing regions.

I've done a bunch of tilesets with geomorphic topo lines but always with the constraint that the lines always connect correctly.
Personally, I would be irritated if the topo lines were mismatched, although I might not notice immediately if the elevations were not color coded (as I show here).
