Landscapes Live
EGU-GM Online Seminars in Geomorphology
Embedded Files
Landscapes Live is a weekly online seminar series freely accessible to the international scientific community interested in various aspects of geomorphology. Our talks take place on Zoom every Thursday, starting at 4pm time of Paris/Berlin/Amsterdam. Check your local time here.
Landscapes Live is affiliated to the Geomorphology (GM) division of EGU and contribute to develop its virtual activities. Indeed, EGU is pioneering a new CampFire concept to bring together the geoscience community in between General Assemblies. We hope that this helps us in our transition to a greener future and ensure that our community better serve the needs of all scientists regardless of international mobility.

Forest-landscape dynamics: Terrestrial Laser Scanning connects forest structure and landscape form in three dimensions
Sediment transport in forested landscapes is governed in part by the feedbacks between biotic and abiotic processes. Trees shape landscape form gradually via root growth and tree throw and rapidly through landsliding and debris flows, where spatial variability in root properties modulates slope stability. Landscape morphology controls the availability of water, light and nutrients, driving significant variability in the structure and composition of forests across scales. A limitation of many studies exploring these feedbacks has been a lack of high resolution data of tree and landscape morphology, with many ecological studies simplifying landscape form, and many geomorphology studies simplifying forest properties.
Recent developments in Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) have unlocked our ability to quantify landscape and forest structure at unprecedented spatial scales, resolving individual branching structure and fine scale microtopographic variability in tandem. We have applied this technology to a collection of forest plots across Europe, capturing data across a climate gradient, and representing a broad range of species distributions and landscape forms. Using these data we segment individual trees, and compute individual, species, and regional level metrics, coupling these with high resolution topographic data to explore the feedbacks between biotic and abiotic processes which modulate landscape morphology in forested ecosystems across Europe.
