A flume is just a unidirectional snow globe! Enjoy a little sediment transport and dune migration created in our new EmFlume1.5. Makes a great stocking stuffer for your favorite sedimentologist, civil engineer or fluvial geomorphologist! #FlumeFriday
Noice! Do yourself a favor and watch the first embedded video "River Champions" (3:31) on full screen.

Great article! We're happy to have shipped an Em2 to the Kansas Geological Survey a couple weeks ago. π We applaud the emphasis here on conversation, relationship building, and cross-pollinating ideas. Hope their new Emriver inspires much of the same! π

We are monumentally excited that #LSU Center for River Studies now has a 4-meter Emriver stream table! πSTEM education that feels like playπ
That's our "Fluvial Geomorphology in a Box!" for ya π
Great day at #LSU Center for River Studies since our @EmriverModel Em4 arrived, with the LSU sediment mix! TBH, I was like a kid getting a present & spent way too much time playing! π Huge thanks to Ann & Fred Trappey & @LSU_Foundation for making this happen! #ScholarshipFirst
Laisse les ensoleillΓ©s temps rouler! Today is our one year solar activation anniversary. π₯³
Our system has produced 19.31 Megawatt hours (MWh) of electricity, which Enphase says is equivalent to 13.8 tons of CO2 reduction, 231 trees planted, or 1.66 million phones charged!
Duly noted! π
Well hey hey hey! Looks like as of today the barrier to entry dropped away. Come find us at @emriver.bsky.social

Today is #WorldWetlandDay but EVERY DAY is a day to value and protect these systems that store carbon, clean our water, prevent flooding, and harbor incredible biodiversity. Please share to battle against the wetlands-as-wastelands mentality.
There's a LOT worth knowing here "Coastal areas are especially vulnerable, not just because of storms and floods, but from rising seas and erosion. That includes one-fifth of Americans. The good news is that there is a lot we can do."

The tribes have big plans for what comes next. An immense effort [...] more than 17 billion seeds slated for planting and at least a thousand trees ready [...] Over time, the river will slowly turn back into the vibrant, free-flowing ecosystem it once was.

We're absolutely wowwed by these maps! A few years ago, Hungarian cartographer Robert Szucs poked around the internet for a global map of the worldβs rivers, one that categorized them based on their ocean destination.

Well done and congratulations! The students look so engaged. π Weβ€οΈ it. π
Happy #FlumeFriday - we are happy to share this short timelapse of our most recent Em4 delivery to Auburn University! There are links in the description box to really interesting related research.

Oh, so sorry we're missing you! We weren't able to make it this year (sadly). Hope you have a wonderful conference!
