It is my pleasure to present this photo gallery of erosion related images contributed by myself and colleagues around the world. Thank you all.

The purpose of this photo sharing gallery is to provide a place for sharing practical techniques, unique erosion equipment and the beauty of field work.  New researchers may find the pictures a great help by reassuring their direction through the experience of others. More experienced researchers will most certainly enjoy sharing their experience.

Please email any erosion images you would like to share to Sensit,  everyone will appreciate your efforts. 

Special honors to a dear departed friend and colleague, Paul Robert Owen Jan 24, 1920 -> Nov 11, 1990. Robert was a world renowned scientist and humanitarian who actively promoted international cooperation.
