Thanks to the momentum of European Union policies, disused dams are being removed for the purpose of restoring rivers. One example of this is the Olloki dam (Gipuzkoa), which was the subject of a ...

Studying the sediment of a mountain river can reveal thousands of years or more of a waterway's history, including new threats from more frequent wildfires and increased precipitation brought by ...

What's the shape of water? In 2022, NASA launched the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite to answer this question by precisely measuring the height and extent of bodies of water.

Fluvial dynamics during the Quaternary encompass the processes by which rivers and streams shape the Earth’s surface in response to climatic oscillations, tectonic movements and sediment supply. Over ...

Katherine's research is focused on river and floodplain dynamics and the interactions between geomorphic processes and ecological processes. She is particularly interested in the influence of river ...

While at CU, I had the opportunity to work with the Fluvial Geomorphology Research Group. My work with the group started in the summer of 2021 in Capitol Reef National Park, where I assisted with ...

Dr. Biron has studied at the Université de Montréal and at Leeds University during her doctoral research in fluvial geomorphology. She has joined Concordia in 1998. Her research involves river ...
