Marianna Soler has made a research stay with Professor Andrew Folkard, expert in Eco-hydrodynamics at the Lancaster Environment Center, University of Lancaster, UK, during the second semester of 2018.

Laboratory experiments have been conducted to study the effect of vegetation (in particular, cases of fragmented vegetation) on hydrodynamics and sediments transport due to density currents.

This stay has been conducted within the framework of the FRAGMENTUM project (CGL2017-86515-P) of the Spanish Ministry of Economy, Industry and Competitiveness.
