Well, that's a wrap. After a brilliant 6.5 years at @EEIatHull @UniOfHull, it's time for the next challenge. Learnt so much during my time here and can't thank everyone I worked with enough for the opportunity and experience I gained. Made some true friends for life here ✌️

A sad outcome. Hopefully @sedimentology leadership will reconsider its proposals and our flagship journal can continue to be for the sedimentology community and by its members for its members.

How Much Rainwater Gets Stored In Lagoons To Stop Hull Flooding? There’s been a lot of weather lately, so we sent our lagoons correspondent @angus_young61 to report on how our city avoids (another) disaster. https://t.co/jm4w5Wqdrn

I demonstrate that over interannual timescales, oxbow lakes can grow and shrink by >100%! Lakes formed by chute cutoff are more suceptible to larger water surface area changes and tie channels (narrow channels linking lakes to the river ; see pic) are crucial for this #TeamOxbow

Happy to share that my paper on the hydrological dynamism of oxbow lakes is now out to read - part one of a project that started during lockdown 1.0 and came to fruition through my @LeverhulmeTrust ECR fellowship 😁 https://t.co/WLbfkuilPK

After their formation, oxbow lakes are considered to passively infill with limited hydrodynamic dynamism. Results from 64 oxbow lakes in the Bolivian Amazon Basin demonstrate that the water surface...

Exciting #PhD opportunity here, using #geomorphological and #topographic analysis to better understand the delivery of contaminated mine sediment from disturbed headwater catchments over historical, contemporary and future timescales (under climate change scenarios). 👇

Great morning out with the catchment partnership visiting High Eske Nature Reserve to check out the levee repair works. Really cool site for nature and flood water attenuation (and maybe more...👀)

#StormAshley, the first named storm of the year. Expect conditions to turn wet and windy on Sunday as this 'explosively' deepening area of low pressure approaches. Stay #WeatherAware ⚠️
We're keeping a close eye on developments in the Atlantic Ocean this weekend 👀 An area of low pressure is expected to 'explosively' deepen as it crosses the jet stream and this will bring a period of stormy weather to parts of the British Isles on Sunday 🌬️
