Can archival visual sources be used to quantify coastal change?: insights from the dynamic coastline of Ceredigion, west Wales Open
Along many coastlines worldwide, a variety of direct and indirect anthropogenic influences are influencing natural processes of coastal erosion and deposition.  Both traditional change reconstruction and monitoring techniques (e.g. re…

Time-series remote sensing and multi-continental field work reveals that wetlands in drylands can be robust indicators of climate change Open
Identifying reliable indicators of environmental changes is crucial for effective ecosystem management, particularly in drylands which are prone to climate change impacts. Here, we report on how we are integrating time-series remote sensin…

Surveys conducted a third of a century apart reveal changes to in‐stream large wood, riparian vegetation and stream planform in response to management within a UK national park Open
Despite their importance for the structure and biogeomorphological function of river landscapes, riparian trees and wood have long been heavily managed. In 1991, Gregory et al. (1993) undertook a walkover survey of ~60 km of streams within…

Are human activities or climate changes the main causes of soil erosion in the South African drylands?: A palaeo‐perspective from three sites in the interior Open
Soil erosion across South Africa's drylands occurs widely in the form of gullies and badlands (locally termed dongas) that have developed in colluvium and in valley fills along incised rivers. This erosion has commonly been attributed to l…

Interactions between vegetation and river morphodynamics. Part I: Research clarifications and challenges Open
Rivers have an intricate relationship with the vegetation that colonizes them. Riparian plants, capable of thriving within river corridors, both respond to and influence geomorphology. Yet interactions between river morphodynamics and vege…

Timescales of tree‐covered island dynamics on the mixed bedrock‐alluvial anabranching Vaal River, South Africa Open
Previous research on mixed bedrock‐alluvial anabranching rivers has documented how alluvial islands commonly grow under vegetation influences atop slowly eroding bedrock templates, but timescales of island dynamics remain poorly constraine…

Trees, large wood and streams: Using archive survey data to inform changing interactions in a human‐impacted landscape Open
Monitoring is the key to understanding fluvial systems and a crucial foundation for assessing the outcomes of river restoration. The New Forest, southern England, was designated a National Park in 2005 in recognition of its highly valued l…

How have Cretan rivers responded to late Holocene uplift? A multi‐millennial, multi‐catchment field experiment to evaluate the applicability of Schumm and Parker's (1973) complex response model Open
‘Complex response’ (Schumm, 1973, Geomorphic thresholds and complex response of drainage systems. In Morisawa, M. (ed.), Fluvial Geomorphology . Binghamton: New York State University Publications: 299‐310) describes situations in which a s…

A Tale of Two Rivers: Comparing erosion rates from two sides of the South African landscape  Open
<p>Many classical models of landscape evolution in South Africa have previously relied on large-scale, predominantly qualitative, field observations. In recent decades, however, the development of the accelerator mass spectrometer (A…

Significantly enhanced mid Holocene fluvial activity in a globally important, arid‐zone wetland: The Okavango Delta, Botswana Open
Information on past dryland environments is commonly derived from geomorphological landforms and sediments (‘geoproxies’). The Okavango Delta in the middle Kalahari, Botswana, has been subject to a long history of arid–humid transitions bu…

Changes In Soil Properties Across A Hydrological Gradient In Saladas From Northeast Spain: Implications For Soil Carbon Stocks, CO2 Efflux And Microbial Communities In A Warming World. Open
Numerous permanent and temporary wetlands occur throughout the world’s drylands. Although characterised by diverse hydroperiods, these wetlands in drylands are typically hotspots of biological activity and productivity. The healthy functio…

Quantifying the erosion of the world’s largest impact crater using cosmogenic nuclides: the Vredefort Dome, South Africa. Open
<p>The world&#8217;s largest meteorite impact crater, the Vredefort Dome, has been the subject of extensive studies relating to its age, geology and geomorphology. However, there are no studies pertaining to the rate at which the…

Remembering and forgetting floods and droughts: lessons from the Welsh colony in Patagonia Open
Sustainable flood memories – defined as those formed of folk memories of flooding, flood heritage and other local, lay knowledges – have been identified as having great potential for increasing community resilience to floods. Focusing on t…

Equality, diversity, inclusion: ensuring a resilient future for geomorphology Open
Within and beyond academia, debates around equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) have been gathering pace. We focus on EDI and geomorphology and address four main questions: (1) why does EDI matter for geomorphology?; (2) what are the ba…

Topographic, Hydraulic, and Vegetative Controls on Bar and Island Development in Mixed Bedrock‐Alluvial, Multichanneled, Dryland Rivers Open
We investigate processes of bedrock‐core bar and island development in a bedrock‐influenced anastomosed reach of the Sabie River, Kruger National Park, eastern South Africa. For sites subject to alluvial stripping during an extreme flood e…
