Biography

John Lewin was formerly Professor of Physical Geography, Dean of Science, and Pro-Vice-Chancellor at Aberystwyth. Continuing research interests focus on rivers and floodplains: their long-term development in response to climatic change and human influences, problems of flooding and pollution, and active channel-patterning and floodplain sedimentation processes.
