Meander (2025).
(Unlike people who're associating a strong negative connotation with that word, I've always seen active meandering as a strength, a never ending search and adaptation of one's course in changing environments, finding/encouraging/prioritizing flow, learning/sharing/depositing bits of knowledge/material in different places and thereby also changing your local environment, at least a little...)
"Be like water!"

It was twenty years ago today
Sam L Jackson fought the snakes in air
They've been going in and out of memes
Guess they're funny if you're in your teens
So may I just remind you of
The act you've known for all these years
Monty Python's "Hovercraft full of eels".#snakesonaplane #myhovercraftisfullofeels

Glacial Blues
Meltwater braids like a river delta in this gorgeous image from photographer Stuart Chape. It earned the Silver distinction from the World Nature Photography Awards in their “Planet Earth’s landscapes and environments” category. Water takes tortuous paths like these as it tries to balance the local incline, erosion, deposition, and flow rate. (Image credit: S. Chape/WNPA; via Colossal)

I've been playing with a very simple approach to meandering paths. I'm not sure if I'm getting anywhere with these, but I thought I'd post some of the tests so far.
The problem with the 2D idea is that the paths will easily wander off the screen. So I thought I'd put them on a spherical surface to contain them. It turned out this isn't quite trivial, and I had to rethink what directions and turns actually mean there. It all came down to the Non-Euclidean nature of the sphere. A straight-line direction there means a great circle, but no two great circles can be parallel. So directions and positions are rather closely linked. This is in contrast to Euclidean geometry, where you can go from any point into any direction.

Cutting Out Canyons
Over the millennia, the Colorado River has carved some of the deepest and most dramatic canyons on our planet. This astronaut photo shows the river near its dam at Lake Powell. The strip of white edging the lake is the “bathtub ring” that shows how the water level has varied over the years. The deep canyons — over 400 meters from the Horn in the center of the photo to the river beside it — throw shadows across the landscape. To reach these depths, the Colorado River incised its path into bedrock that was tectonically uplifted. (Image credit: NASA; via NASA Earth Observatory)

Fluvial System Block Diagrams

I was looking to understand a fluvial system the other day, up in the high Arctic, as I looked at 3DEP remote sensed elevation data… I have always been fascinated by the how geology, water, weather shapes a landscape, including erosion (aka geomorphology if you will) – and realized how very much value fluvial block diagrams have as we try to conceptualise what has, is and will happen(ed.)

A #Meander is a series of curves in a river or other body of water that form a winding, snake-like path.
Meanders are created by erosion and deposition processes that occur when a river erodes the outside bank of a river channel and deposits sediment on the inside bank.

As they meandered through town, hand in hand, fingers interlaced, most people cried out in horror, and ran for shelter. Only a few stood, and stared, trying to find out what kind of magic this was. It's not every day that you see two skeletons walk by.

Meander (Geomorphology 🏞️)
A meander is one of a series of regular sinuous curves in the channel of a river or other watercourse. It is produced as a watercourse erodes the sediments of an outer, concave bank and deposits sediments on an inner, convex bank which is typically a point bar. The result of this coupled erosion and sedimentation is the formation of a sinuous course as the chan...
