For my money, I think they'll find both more jokes and more receptive audiences when they head to AGU. #Geoscientists are a funny bunch and are usually a pretty receptive audience. A great talk is like an IgNobel prize winner: "first [it] makes you laugh, then [it] makes you think.”

In a former service tunnel built for the Furka-Gotthard rail link, ETH #Geoscientists are looking to move mountains. We take a closer look at the underground lab.

Question for all the #geoscientists out there: what are some skills you would emphasize if you took #geology ⚒️ field camp again, now that you work in the #geosciences or a related discipline?

This looks like a very interesting opportunity for post-docs through assistant professors in the geoscience area. The first Immersive Institute will be June 16-21 2025 in Seattle and comes with a stipend and travel expenses. 🧪 🎓 #Geoscientists #EarthScience #Geophysics
Had a great time at the @herdman.bsky.social symposium last week. Some really thought provoking talks that all highlighted how important trained #geoscientists are for the global challenges we face. Sadly at the same time as I heard another university geophysics course is about to be shut down...

It was a pleasure to work with the geologist Marcia Bjornerud on this lovely essay about metamorphic rocks: the "emissaries from the deep". From Timefulness to her more recent book Turning to Stone, Marcia's work has so often inspired me over the years #geology #geoscientists aeon.co/essays/metam...

Did you know that the @eurogeosciences.bsky.social has launched a new #EDI Participation Support Scheme for #EGU25? #geoscientists facing financial barriers linked to caring responsibilities, disability costs or temporary unemployment are eligible to apply. Info👇 www.egu25.eu/guidelines/s...
Today, we are delighted to welcome @DrHollyElliott from the @BritGeoSurvey to Derby to tell our #GeoEnergy and #EarthSciences students all about the new UK 2024 Criticality Assessment that was released last week.
A terrific lecture clearly demonstrating the huge global demand for #Geoscientists.
Did you know there are glaciers that advance amid a generalized global shrinkage of the #Mountain #Cryosphere? This fascinating complexity motivates #Geoscientists to challenge themselves to figure out how the Earth System works, #ClimateChange. laderasur.com/articulo/un-... Test your Spanish too!
A satellite shot of the hill at 48°16′57″N 121°50′53″W in July of 2013. Mass wasting is occurring on the hill. Under the hill in the image is the Steelhead River. On the other side of that river are home developments filled with families.
A satellite shot of the hill at 48°16′57″N 121°50′53″W in April 2014 after the landslide had happened. The hill has suffered a massive landslide and the home developments on the other side of the river are completely destroyed, covered by the debris from the landslide.
2 weeks ago in class we learned about the tragic 2014 landslide in Oso, Washington that claimed 43 innocent lives.
It was vital for authorities to listen to #geoscientists and experts whose warnings went ignored for decades. If we don't heed scientists' warnings, we will suffer fatal consequences.
Any #geoscientists around who would be comfortable helping to put together a popular science story about the age/history of the Appalachian rivers? [I’m asking because I’m not comfortable] cc @callanbentley.bsky.social @clasticdetritus.bsky.social
