I am a fluvial
geomorphologist, which means I spend a lot of time in rivers, thinking about
rivers, and enjoying rivers. My research
focuses on how rivers respond to change from Holocene-scale post-glacial
evolution to century-scale anthropogenic land use changes to decadal-scale
post-eruption landscape recovery.
