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.
