Cutting Out Canyons
Over the millennia, the Colorado River has carved some of the deepest and most dramatic canyons on our planet. This astronaut photo shows the river near its dam at Lake Powell. The strip of white edging the lake is the “bathtub ring” that shows how the water level has varied over the years. The deep canyons — over 400 meters from the Horn in the center of the photo to the river beside it — throw shadows across the landscape. To reach these depths, the Colorado River incised its path into bedrock that was tectonically uplifted. (Image credit: NASA; via NASA Earth Observatory)

Grenzend aan het natuurgebied #Koningslaagte heeft Het Groninger Landschap een weidevogelperceel van 9.000 m2 verworven. Het (bescheiden) perceel ligt weliswaar middenin een kerngebied voor #weidevogels, maar er ligt ook een oude #meander van de rivier de #Hunze. https://shorturl.at/8KU3S
They're a bit out of focus but anyone knoe what these are? They look a bit pre-historic 🤔😁

Can you find the bug? It almost looks like a far away drone when you zoom in 😁

It's been a bit too windy lately, so here's a paddling photo from last year of the weather I'm hoping for 😁

Oh hey, She's got this [ #meander / @amblearts.ambleslibrary.ca ] [ #pixelart / #KurbiisSketchbook ]
Been feeling a bit out of sorts so just a short walk in the wind 😁

P.S if your country doesn’t have the freedom to roam https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_to_roam there’s something inherently wrong.

Fluvial System Block Diagrams
--
I was looking to understand a fluvial system the other day, up in the high Arctic, as I looked at 3DEP remote sensed elevation data… I have always been fascinated by the how geology, water, weather shapes a landscape, including erosion (aka geomorphology if you will) – and realized how very much value fluvial block diagrams have as we try to conceptualise what has, is and will happen(ed.)
