I was totally unaware of the recent volcanic activity in Iceland until it came up in class today!! Wow. #GEO333

Watching some footage of storm damage & checked Google Maps. Part of I-10 is closed near Palm Springs. #HurricaneHilary #GEO122 #GEO333

Looks like my natural disasters class for fall is full! Always an interesting class to teach. Thinking of all the recent events I’ll have to add this time- cyclones/hurricanes, Türkiye & Syria earthquakes, heatwaves, droughts, floods. 🌪️🔥🌞☔️🌬️ #GEO333 #MiamiOH

Tried to find a tweet of this, but couldn't. Great #flooding time lapse from Australia. Yikes! #GEO333 www.instagram.com/reel/Ca79Xk9pkWK/

We're starting earthquakes & tsunami next week in #GEO333, so I was just rewatching part of this absolutely terrifying video of the 2011 #Tōhoku #tsunami in Kesennuma, Japan. Just watch how fast the water comes in here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8qFi74k2UE

If you have Netflix, be sure to watch the #tsunami episode from the new set of Unsolved Mysteries they released! It's a ghost story one, but also has terrifying tsunami footage & accounts. #GEO333

Took the advice of some helpful people & found a great article for #GEO333 next week (epidemics). Thanks, @SJDJ & @meganbarkerase! www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/09/p...

Another place to watch hurricanes is this global wind map. Here's a link to this morning's map. Click "earth" on the map for more options like most current map. #GEO333 earth.nullschool.net/

Look how many of the current fires are already on the list of California's largest wildfires. https://www.fire.ca.gov/media/5510/top20-acres.pdf #GEO333

Finally got around to posting work from my #NaturalDisasters students. They did some really interesting topics & blog posts this year. #GEO333 maryhenrygeo.tumblr.com/post/189729981443/studen...

Working on my winter class syllabus while my #GEO333 Natural Disasters students take their final exam!

Last day on campus until 2020. Giving my #GEO333 final exam today then I’ll be grading until it’s all done.

Wow. 'Victoria Falls dries to a trickle after worst drought in a century' www.theguardian.com/world/2019/dec/07/victor... #GEO333 #drought

Got a set of papers last night so should grade those this weekend. I'll also be setting up a page of links to their final blog posts- really interesting topics this year. Watch for those! #GEO333 #NaturalDisasters

Using some high tech in my #GEO333 class this morning.

Halfway through these #GEO333 1st drafts (there are 29)! Won't finish today, but the topics are interesting and most of them are very well written. Can't wait to share their final blog posts at the end of the semester. You can see posts from 2017 here:...

Going to show some SCARY eyewitness video of 11 March 2011 #tsunami in class today.

Setting up a list for peer reviews in #GEO333. It's always a logic puzzle to get them set up & then organize all the Google Drive files (drafts & peer review forms).

Anyone know a good #ClimateChange doc that focuses on #NaturalDisasters? Last time I taught #GEO333 I showed Climate of Doubt (not disasters specific), but I'd like to show something newer (it's from 2012). Looking for one w/o a celebrity narrator. LOL.

Another interesting story sent by a #GEO333 student. We're talking about #malaria in class this week. "Malaria is one of the leading causes of death in Uganda, but a good diagnosis is hard to come by. Brian Gitta is working to change that" https://bit.ly/33gyDXu #Uganda

Sent to me by a student in my #NaturalDisasters class. Funny & educational! "Scientists Fact Check Natural Disasters In Movies | Vanity Fair" @VanityFair https://youtu.be/Oz42l-KZgJo via @YouTube #GEO333

Showing this in class next week when we talk about biophysical hazards like epidemics. Amazing the current best treatment can be locally grown! "The #malaria business: Big pharma vs natural medicine" https://youtu.be/OvC4uSYprU8 #GEO333 @France24_en
