Time-lapse trail cameras… not just for wildlife! 📸 Chuffed to share this Tools of the Trade article in @natrevearthenv.bsky.social, highlighting how we can capture glacier calving to better understand rates and drivers of ice loss. 📖 rdcu.be/eaj20 @envleeds.bsky.social @yes-dtn.bsky.social

Lovely to be part of group meetings in Lusaka for the CIHR healthcare access project. We planned local/national dissemination, pulling together key messages across this wonderfully friendly, diverse and international team. Ranging from flood modelling to focus groups to tackle this complex challenge

Back in Zambia for a set of final project dissemination meetings in Lusaka. But a chance to stop by a #fluvial #geomorphology global highlight! The mighty Mosi oa Tunya/Victoria falls gearing up for what we hope is a good wet season this year 🤞🤞🇿🇲🇿🇲

Great couple of days thinking about roughness and geomorphology. Thanks everyone for being so enthusiastic, @geogdurham.bsky.social for funding and @houseago.bsky.social for organising.

What does 50 years’ worth of geomorphological knowledge look like? A full compilation of @bsg-geomorph.bsky.social the ESP&L print run saved from recycling… ahead of the annual BSG meeting here in Leeds celebrating exactly this milestone. On 16th-18th Sept: pop it in your diaries now!

Megan Klaar and Mark Smith @geomorphmark.bsky.social joined The Wild podcast from Glacier Bay National Park in Alaska. They discussed their research about the melting glacier and its incredible effects on the area's ecosystems. Listen here: www.thewildpod.org/episodes

Scouting field sites for teaching in Tenerife… but no better way to cover lots of ground than a nice long run. This is my official reason for the run at least… 😬🌋🌲🏃‍♂️

Great to finally hear the excellent podcast produced by the team that followed us into some remote Alaskan rivers this summer. Highly recommend THE WILD with Chris Morgan - we had an absolute blast with them looking at the changes in Glacier Bay National Park. open.spotify.com/show/6fjDWY0...

#Malaria remains a "formidable challenge" in latest WHO World Malaria Report - cases rise by 11 million in 2023, even increasing as an incidence rate per 1000 population. That's 263 million cases of malaria... www.who.int/teams/global...

It was a privilege to spend a two summers visiting Glacier Bay NP in Alaska to survey the in-stream wood and effects on river geomorphology/ecology with Megan Klaar, Sandy Milner and @lawrenceeagle.bsky.social. See Megan's new paper! Free downloads for 50 days! authors.elsevier.com/a/1k6ciErXCM...

When we did this rather silly comparison picture highlighting glacier retreat in Norway over the last 140 years... I don't think any of us expected it to make it into a news story on the NRK website 😂. Such is life! I ❤️the scratchy image they have at the top: www.nrk.no/klima/brefor...

I made a starter pack of those voices speaking to all things geomorph/glacio/geo/earth sci. Follow them if it's of interest. Will update as the site grows #earthsci #geomorphology #physgeog #science #glaciology go.bsky.app/ME4GNao

#Hydrology and #geomorphology can help us better understand environmental suitability for #malaria transmission. I’m excited to give this BSG seminar in two weeks with examples of our research from the last decade. That pic of me itself is at least a decade old 😂

Hello Bluesky! Thought I should kickoff with some actual blue sky… work posts can wait for now, unless you want a nice picture of some online marking instead.
