This open session brings together people from the BSI community with those from the Department of Geography. There will be an introduction to our approach and areas of research and short presentations from academics from the Department of Geography sharing an overview of their research topics and current challenges.

A mixer session to stimulate new collaborations and connections with the Geography Department.

Connecting environmental research with the science of living systems

The session will highlighting research themes where environmental processes intersect with living systems. Following the presentations, there will be an hour for discussion with refreshments.
1-2 Flash research presentations  
2-3 Mixer in Manley Room

 

Research Overlaps 

We are hoping to stimulate new connections with staff from the following research clusters: 

Catchments and Rivers - Durham University

Monitoring and modelling the interactions and feedbacks between geomorphology, hydrology, vegetation, and water chemistry in hillslope and river systems.

Hazards and Surface Change - Durham University

Holistic approaches to understanding hazards as the outcome of recurrent or chronic physical processes. In particular, we are focused on:
  • Understanding the physical mechanisms of mass movements, coupling novel laboratory and field-based approaches with numerical modelling, to allow assessment of slope stability at societally-relevant scales.
  • Quantitative estimation of the long-term and large-scale effects of mass movements on the sediment and terrestrial carbon cycles.

Sea Level, Ice and Climate - Durham University
Explains and quantifies the dynamic response of ice sheets to external and internal forcing and their contribution to sea-level rise. A particular focus is on integrating our strengths in field and remote sensing with new expertise in numerical modelling.
