Beautiful work from Will Taylor here, showing that mud-rich bedforms can be found extensively in proximal locations in submarine systems!

Come and join us!

I love this paper. Highlights huge opportunities for some far more detailed work on biology and sedimentology interaction in ocean floor channels. It is an almost unknown habitat!!

Come and work on bubbles in sediments with us! Fully funded PhD with awesome CDT training built in. Tonnes of implications across sectors for this work.

Lovely paper this from the ever talented Yuxuan

Great opportunity to join our CDT programme, and tackle the multifaceted issues faced by the nuclear industry Deadline: 8th May Jeff Peakall findaphd.com/phds/project/p…

Lots of exciting projects up for grabs with our CDT programme this year, this one is with Sellafield Ltd Jeff Peakall Application deadline: 8th May findaphd.com/phds/project/b…

An exciting new addition to the fluids experimental facilities in Leeds! Jeff Peakall Bruce Hanson, Tim Hunter, Mike Fairweather, David Harbottle, Alastair Baker

Well worth a read! With the brilliant Dr Aurelia Privat 🌊 and stratleeds

Part 2 of our planned Trilogy on sole marks is coming imminently. These largely forgotten structures provide us with lots of information on the flows that formed them! With Jim Best Jaco H. Baas 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇳🇱⚒️⛰️🌊🚶🥘🎶⚽ stratleeds and more.

Our new State of the Science paper on sole structures - the catchily named Flow-induced Interfacial Deformation Structures (FIDS) is now out in Sedimentology: doi.org/10.1111/sed.13… with Jim Best Jaco H. Baas 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇳🇱⚒️⛰️🌊🚶🥘🎶⚽ stratleeds Paul Wignall and Piotr Lapcik. Here is a taster...

Study leave 2024 - first field day in deep-marine Cloridorme Fm. FIDS, mud ripples and frondescent marks galore.

A stunning image of FIDS from Jim Best. An example of 'dinosaur leather'. This has been quite the voyage of discovery! Sounds like quite a volume as well.

What a cover image! (though I may be biased)

Abstract submission for the 63rd British Sedimentological Research Group Annual General Meeting is open by November 21st: environment.leeds.ac.uk/events/event/6…

Come join us in Leeds for a festival of sedimentology!

I don't like this place anymore and particularly its owner so am off to the other side where it seems I am almost the last to arrive... It was fun for a while!
