Ongoing Work
- Deben Soundings – an AHRC funded Research Network project run by Simon Read and Helene Burningham [Imagining the measure of change, under the Landscape Decisions programme]
- Suffolk inlets – ongoing research by Helene Burningham around coastal change along the Suffolk coast, including a tool to access the most recent cloud free imagery of the Deben and Alde/Ore inlets
