Great to visit @unisouthampton.bsky.social to deliver a seminar on my recent and soon-to-be published work @leverhulme.ac.uk funded work on oxbow lakes. Lovely to be back in Southampton after a 10 year hiatus (since the legendary @bsg-geomorph.bsky.social dinner at sea, @drchrishackney.bsky.social)

Really nice to see the full story of @crabvocate.bsky.social's work having seen snippets over the past couple of years. Exciting findings to come 👀

Thrilled to announce that Mike Kirkby, Fiona Kirkby and Stuart Lane have all been awarded Honorary Life Membership of the BSG during yesterday’s Frost Reception. We also welcomed Paul Carling and Malcolm Newson as new Fellows of the BSG. Congratulations all! #BSG25

Really cool to hear about @lisamol.bsky.social's work after not crossing paths in a loooong time. Many congrats on the award, Lisa!

It was fun to chat to folks about my work on the #RACC project which seeks to better understand interactions and controls on pollutant dispersal associated with historic coastal landfills in the UK at #BSG25

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.

It's that time of year again, time for the annual @bsg-geomorph.bsky.social conference. A nice easy travel across from Hull this morning, but still an early start #BSG25

Great to get my first glimpse of Tilbury this week. Welcomed with a burnt out speed camera, so knew this site would provide the goods. Plenty of glass and crockery amongst other interesting finds. Look forward to collecting more samples here

A great few days in #LymeRegis collecting sediment samples to assess the impact and risk posed by an eroding coastal landfill - 80+ samples retrieved and excited to see what they tell us once we get them in the lab! #RACC

Never seen such reckless decision making in my life -

Hottest day of the year? Seems like an ideal time to collect geometric measurements about bricks 🥵

Congrats, Tom. Was a pleasure during the time we overlapped at Hull. All the best with the next chapter!

Always a bit of a bummer when your crucible explodes during a loss-on-ignition run and contaminates the other 15 samples 🙃 #LabworkWoes

Very well deserved!

Come and join us on the RACC project at @qmul.ac.uk - 2 year PDRA post to start ASAP

Another cracking Devon day, sampling the finest British saltmarsh (and whatever else lurks within...). Plenty of samples to begin analysing back at @qmul.ac.uk #RACC
