Measurement – coastal teledetection

The STORMLINK project (NCN/2021/43/D/ST10/00185) has published a new paper on its ability to detect changes in the patterns and spread of sandy sediments in the marine coastal zone. In our latest study, we combined data from a drone equipped with a LiDAR scanner with data from a multispectral camera to distinguish freshly formed sediments from […]
Labwork in Stockholm

From March 10 to 14, Karol Tylmann was a guest at the Department of Geological Sciences at Stockholm University, where he conducted research on sediment cores from the bottom of the Baltic Sea as part of the “STREAMBAL” project. Karol was primarily involved in collecting glacial clay samples from the aforementioned cores for microstructural analysis […]

On March Fourth, the Commission for Innovative Research Methods in Geomorphology organized the first edition of the session “Young Geomorphologists – Innovations and New Perspectives in Geomorphology,” where Young Geomorphologists from six […]
Sedimentary Geology – lithic clasts in Rzucewo

The morphology of clasts conceals a great deal of information about the past of various depositional environments and their phenomena. In their latest publication, Łukasz Elwirski and Piotr Woźniak used material from the Rzucewo cliff. The authors analyzed the variation in the lithology and morphology of gravels carried by dense subaquatic flow to understand better […]
