We developed an unsupervised workflow to estimate river surface velocities from videos. Testing on 11,000+ videos against 274 gauging measurements showed excellent agreement.

Incredible week with our Stage 1 Physical Geographers in the Lake District looking at physical processes and landforms @newcastleuni.bsky.social
28.04.2025 15:29 โ ๐ 5 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Last week we took 31 students to the Netherlands to look at physical geography, coastal processes, and climate change and adaption in action. Great to hear these student reflections that underscore how important field experience is to our discipline! @hassfacultyncl.bsky.social
