About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour

In this FREE online session, we will explore the fascinating relationship between river geomorphology (the shape and movement of rivers) and the biodiversity (the wide variety of plants and animals) that depends on it, with a special focus on chalk streams and its flora (plant species).

These unique rivers, found on our doorstep, are famous for their clear waters and gravel beds, making them home to a huge variety of life, from tiny insects to playful Otters.

Together, we can learn how best to protect and enjoy these wonderful freshwater ecosystems!

Date: Wednesday 3rd September

Time: 12.30-13.30

Location: Online (Microsoft Teams)

Thanks to funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
