BACK TO RIVER FESHIE
Over the past ~50 years, the Feshie has been the site of numerous studies which have examined the geomorphology, and ecology of this site, with broader implications for the behavior of braided streams and the habitat found there. There is an exhaustive list of research articles available for more information on the Feshie. We have provided a bibliography (PDF format) that contains the studies we are aware of which have been conducted on the Feshie. In this bibliography, articles written by members of our research team are denoted in bold.

Mark Smith (Leeds University) surveys the topography of Glen Feshie using a Terrestrial Laser Scanner.
We have also produced two posters that document ongoing research on the Feshie, and the methods we have employed:
  • A good deal of our work involves repeat topographic surveying, or capturing the form of the landscape across several years. These datasets enable us to understand how the river is changing each year, and whether or not the specific mechanisms of chance might be related to the amount and magnitude of floods during a given year. We survey the landscape using a variety of techniques, but perhaps the most prominent of these is Terrestrial Laser Scanning, which uses a reflected laser beam to measure the elevation of the land surface. We have produced a poster detailing the method and resulting data from our TLS surveys.
Picture
  • In 2013, our research group published an article summarizing our findings from five years of annual topographic surveys on the study reach. In this article, we developed methods for separating the complex ways, or 'mechanisms,' by which multi-thread rivers like the Feshie shift their channel form. The study provided one of the first examinations of the influence of year-to-year flood dynamics on braided river dynamics, while also exploiting an extremely high-resolution dataset provided by TLS surveys. A poster summarizing the results of this study, which also received a research spotlight in the American Geophysical Union's EOS Journal, is provided here.
