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.

That’s a wrap for #BSG25 @universityofleeds.bsky.social. Thanks to Jonathan, Mark and the wider organising team for a fantastic week covering a wide range of geomorphic processes. Thanks also to Wiley and ESPL, it was a pleasure to celebrate 50 years. See you all next year in Lincoln!

The final session of #BSG25 focused on rivers 🌧️ including beaver restoration, oxbow lake geomorphology, the impacts of rewilding and controls on river flow sensitivity!

Thanks to all who joined the AGM this afternoon and to those who provided committee updates. Big thanks go to the outgoing members of the exec @aockelford.bsky.social, @hywelgriffiths.bsky.social, Mattie Biddulph and Lizzie Dingle for their generous contributions. Find out how you can get involved ⬇️

For our final morning in Leeds, we had two sessions covering a wide range of geomorphology from dryland channels to glacial landforms and the interestingly named murdlins to coseismic landslide prediction and mapping and the potential to use sonic geomorphology for ecosystems ☀️❄️🌧️🏔️ #BSG25

Celebrating the Gordon Warwick award by Prof @lisamol.bsky.social this morning. Very inspiring to see Lisa’s research on heritage geomorphology in conflict zones, highlighting her outreach initiatives and the importance of partner organisations #BSG25

🌟 BSG Highlights Thursday 🌟 - Warwick award lecture - More great talks! - AGM - members check your emails to join online

Another excellent Cuchlaine King Symposium! We enjoyed talks from Andres Payo Garcia, Lizzie Dingle and Irina Overeem covering a range of geomorphology from coastal processes and the new CoastME to glacial legacy in tectonically quiescent environments & icy landscapes in response to climate change

Starting this afternoon with Linton Award winner, Prof Dave Thomas (@oxfordgeography.bsky.social), a fantastic summary of the evolution of dryland aeolian research over the last 50 years from hand mapping to AI. A talk filled with dunes, dating and fieldwork. Thanks Dave. #BSG25

Two excellent talks from Marjorie Sweeting award winner, Sophie Snowball (Newcastle), and runner up Adam Wright (Sussex) on the role of geomorphology in historic landfill waste and coastal pollution in the north east and glaciofluvial geomorphology on Mars. #BSG25

A session filled with models! Great range of talks on landscape evolution, from uncertainty and new statistics to measure model performance, estimates of future sediment transport in Scotland, asymmetric glaciation as a control on drainage divides to divide asymmetry on Mars and its link to process.

Great day at #BSG25 in Leeds, with award of 2 @bsg-geomorph.bsky.social Fellowships (Carling & Newson) and lifetime awards for Mike Kirkby, Fiona Kirkby & Stuart Lane in ESPL’s 50th anniversary year. And of course outstanding science from NZ to Swaledale via some poetic potholes. More today!

Excellent Michael Kirkby award talk given by Wren Raming to kick off the second day of #BSG25. Wren showed how rock strength, drainage area and flood size control waterfall stability on the Hawaiian Islands. You can read Wren’s paper here: doi.org/10.1002/esp....

🌟 Wednesday highlights #BSG25 🌟 - Three award lectures! - Poster session and lightening talks - Cuchlaine King Symposium - Conference dinner

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

A series of fascinating talks on fluvial geomorphology in the UK to wrap up today’s presentations! From potholes and outreach, reconstructing palaeofloods in York to future possibilities for fluvial research with advances in technology. Lots of exciting research being done and left to do! #BSG25
