A great few days at #BSG25 where I got the chance to showcase my @leverhulme.ac.uk funded work on oxbow lakes - hopefully out in publication form soon.
The final session of #BSG25 focused on rivers 🌧️ including beaver restoration, oxbow lake geomorphology, the impacts of rewilding and controls on river flow sensitivity!
