Landslides, sediment deficits, climate and landuse change, & #salmon population declines. The #Fraser River needs a Science Monitoring Centre, now. @LandslideSalmon@SFU@SFUENV@VancouverSun https://t.co/659AV9P4Qa
I’m excited to share a project that I’ve been working on since 2017! It started as a fun discussion with @EricDealFluvial, but has turned into something more insightful than we had originally imagined. A lattice model of bed load sediment transport: https://t.co/AjwRppyyz9 (1/5)
The #FraserRiver is unique among the world’s great rivers – a huge, relatively natural, undammed, mountain river running through a dense urban area. But a lack of monitoring and management could threaten what makes the Fraser special, particularly its natural biodiversity and ability to respond to sea-level rise, warn #SFU experts.

Climate change and encroaching development continues to pressure biodiversity, but the West saw dozens of conservation success stories in 2024.

Over the course of this week, the contents of these pallets should transform into the #BiG_lab (BioGeomorphology) research flume @MMU_NATSCI@MMUEngage@ManMetUni . Offload this morning with John Dalton keeping an eye on proceedings.

New paper out in @PNAS with Marwan Hassan, Gary Parker, @yarrabar, Chenge An, Professor Fu and myself on the magical effect sand has on gravel beds. @SFU@UBC@Tsinghua_Uni

This is an impressive landslide! Potential for a significant hazard if the landslide dam fails catastrophically and the lake behind it drains quickly. Note the river is completely dry downstream. Do NOT walk out into the channel!
