@coastalscoop.bsky.socialImportant work from my @ncl-geography.bsky.social colleagues: Researchers think 'more than 2 tonnes' could still be in river Tyne - “When elevated river flows arrive, some of that material is likely to be flushed downstream, so now is the time to consider where it could be intercepted.”

Show PostIt’s been a pleasure working on this research. We set out to determine whether water-surface geometry could be determined using a single camera and how these measurements might help us to better understand river dynamics. We’d welcome any feedback on our pre-print: essopenarchive.org/doi/abs/10.2...
Show PostResearch led by Newcastle University and the National Trust found that restoring a straightened, engineered channel to a more natural form significantly delayed the movement of flood waters downstream. Read more: tinyurl.com/344exsya
Show PostDelighted to share that our new paper on the Goldrill Beck restoration project in Cumbria has been published in WRR. We investigated how re-meandering and reconnecting a historically straightened river to its floodplain altered the movement of water through the landscape tinyurl.com/2552c6w4
