Amazing fieldwork with National Trust at Tattiscombe and river Heddon restoration in North Devon representing our WiRe (wood in river restoration) project with @alanputtock.bsky.social. The geomorphic changes by installing large wood are mesmerising. As a treat, we saw the stunning Heddon’s Mouth

There is still time to apply for a PhD on flash flooding and geomorphic changes in desert wadi systems! The PhD, through hydraulic and sediment modelling, will investigate these impulsive events, and also how nature-based solutions can be used to mitigate their effects. Apply at tinyurl.com/328mctvt

Had a nice Christmas Eve walk in Monmouth today with family, and couldn’t help notice how large wood accumulated at the Monnow Bridge - just like I observed them in flume experiments! It always amazes me. Also did you know is the only remaining bridge in Britain with a gate tower on the bridge?

I recently completed my Academic Professional Programme at @uniofexeter.bsky.social and received the Fellowship status with the (former) Higher Education Academy. I really enjoyed improving my teaching to make it as inclusive and engaging as possible. Looking forward to more challenges. Ad maiora!

Just got this Government Alert on my phone (twice), yet the MetOffice warning is Amber and not Red, this can be rather confusing to people and maybe risks getting the opposite effect?

Today I really enjoyed my first ‘speed networking’ session as dissertation advisor for BSc students. Great to see a lot of interest for water quality issues and solutions in our rivers. Do you have any riverine water quality dissertations projects that students have been/are working on?

A bit of a personal note here: took this photo in 2021 while staying at the neonatal unit in Exeter, with our child born 5 weeks early. We were lucky enough to leave the hospital a few days later after a five-week stay. Happy World Prematurity Day!

I had the real pleasure to talk to the British Society of Geomorphology today on my work on large wood in rivers, from hazard to resource. It was great to see so much interest in the topic and to talk to colleagues in the field. A recording will be available soon and I’ll make sure to share it 😊
