It's not my best cited article, but publication in ESPL provided the essential foundations for much additional research into the geomorphology, sedimentology and Cenozoic history of fluvial systems across southern Africa and farther afield. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1...

My 1st publication in ESPL was in 2002, on geological controls on the formation of alluvial meanders and floodplain wetlands of Klip River, South Africa. Most of the fieldwork for this article was done in late 1998 through 1999 while I was a Postdoctoral Fellow in South Africa.

During a career, most of us harbour the hope that we’re recognised for contributing to several areas of Earth & environ science. For me, river science, in particular, has been an interest area for helping unravel the enigma of bedload sediment transport. #ESPLMemoriesAt50

For me, as an early-career researcher half a century ago, what was inspirational wasn't any specific paper in the first volumes of ESP; rather, it was the confidence & initiative that the BGRG displayed in establishing a new international journal specifically for geomorphologists. #ESPLMemoriesAt50

Dr Bridget Livers in a creek with pebbles and large woody debris.
A PhD student applied the ecological concept of alternate states to river corridors in the Colorado Rocky Mountains that have old-growth vs managed floodplain forest. She found substantial differences in geomorphic & ecological characteristics and we were excited about the study. #ESPLMemoriesAt50

It gave a young PhD student the greatest pleasure to be able to publish in the first volume of Earth Surface Processes. Our paper showed how hydraulic conductivity in frozen soils declines below 0 °C. The paper still gets cited regularly! #ESPLMemoriesAt50 - Prof. Tim Burt, Durham University

Today we share our first edition of #ESPLMemoriesAt50. To celebrate the 50th year of Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, we have been in touch with our fellows to find out how ESPL has influenced their scientific journey. Please join in and share your own experiences with us!
