MacArthur Foundation fellow and EAPS Prof Taylor Perron and his team @MITgeomorph are leading a "landscape revolution" in geomorphology to help understand why our planet looks the way it does. Learn more in this story from @techreview @ScienceMIT bit.ly/3vMDaAZ

For the last few years I've been secretly passing for a geomorphologist. I can now finally share this work done with many great people: Eric A. Deal, Matt Rushlow, Jeremy Venditti @VendittiLab , Ken Kamrin, Qiong Zhang, and J. Taylor Perron @MITgeomorph 👇 details below (1/5)

Oh dear, I’m seeing bedload flume experiments done in @VendittiLab with @MITgeomorph in artwork in my hotel room and I barely just started #AGU2019.
