He has chaired Working Group 1 of EU COST Action ES1306 (Connecting European Connectivity Research). He is a former chair of the International Geographical Union Commission on Geomorphic Challenges for the Twenty-First Century and a former Chair of the British Geomorphological Research Group (now the British Society for Geomorphology).

Saskia D. Keesstra is Senior Researcher at EIT Climate-KIC and Wageningen University & Research. Her research interests include soils as part of a larger system, system dynamics, regional transformations and the consequences of natural and human drivers on connectivity, with a focus on methodology development and the dissemination of science. She was the chair of EU COST Action ES1306 (Connecting European Connectivity Research) and promoted connectivity research during her time as President of the Soil System Science Division of the European Geosciences Union.
