The fluvial geomorphology field has long investigated the interplay between climate, hydrology, and sediment transport in river systems. Recent studies ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
