David Favis-Mortlock
David T. Favis-Mortlock is an
geomorphologist and musician
.
Born David Mortlock on 27 August 1953, he grew up in
geomorphologist John Boardman.[1] Subsequently, he worked with Boardman at the University of Oxford's Environmental Change Unit (now the Environmental Change Institute
).
Publications include the first
British Geomorphological Research Group, 2003-2006. Until 2010 he was a lecturer at Queen's University Belfast, Northern Ireland. He then returned to the Environmental Change Institute until 2020, and is currently a visiting researcher at the British Geological Survey
.
He is married to fellow musician and

Favis-Mortlock is also a musician; in 1978 he formed a
folk-punk band Tricks Upon Travellers. He now plays jazz violin with Gypsy jazz group FiddleBop, which includes Graeme Lamble, the brother of Fairport Convention's original drummer Martin Lamble, on fretless bass guitar
