Excited for #EGU26? The SSP Division hosts exciting #oral and #poster sessions.
One #keynote is the Outstanding #ECS #Award Lecture by Matthias Sinnesael. The session will be on his research in #stratigraphy

A telephone pole reaches skyward from a flat area covered with scrub brush. There are no wires attached to the pole, with appears to have never been used for the purpose. Behind it is a steep cliff showing layers of limestone with gaps between them. The rolling hills above meet a blue sky with a few fluffy clouds.

Towering sandstone cliffs rise from rolling hills in the foreground to steep vertical rock faces behind. The sky above is unblemished blue. There is a small exposure of white clay at middle right, which seems out of place amid the sandstone. Canon 5DII, f/11

"there are only two ways in which these forms could have arrived in the Harding sandstone. They could have been transported by animals, probably Homo sapiens, or they may represent specimens which were silicified, weathered from the Manitou dolomite, and redeposited in the Harding sandstone. The first possibility I am inclined to dismiss as too improbable. I can conceive of some mischievous student throwing such specimens up hill, but it is hardly likely that such a fate could befall two of the five known specimens of the genus Utoceras."
Always great to see a bit of humour in scientific papers! Indeed, pesky animals can really mess up your stratigraphy ...

Transmitted light photomicrograph of an oyster discarded from Sr isotope analysis, exhibiting extensive recrystallization (left part of the image). The specimen was collected from the stratigraphic interval Oy2 at the Mina Salomé section.

Facies (Petrology 💎)
In geology, a facies is a body of rock with distinctive characteristics. The characteristics can be any observable attribute of rocks and the changes that may occur in those attributes over a geographic area. A facies encompasses all the characteristics of a rock including […]

Few remaining stacks of stone that once comprised an ancient ruin are seen here, next to a sandstone boulder. Grama grass grows at lower left amid a scattering of smaller stones, while above a steep cliff towers against a blue sky with scattered clouds. There's a notable streak of lighter colored stone cutting through the terrain at the base of the background cliffs.
Same roadside ruin as my previous post, different angle

A slender-necked hoodoo with a tiny caprock rises elegantly above the sloping mudstone floor of this desert scene. At lower left is a reddish-colored ironstone boulder, while in the middle distance a mudstone ridge is capped by additional hoodoo structures. The sky is mostly clear with a few wispy clouds.

Chronostratigraphy (Geology terminology ⛰️)
Chronostratigraphy is the branch of stratigraphy that studies the ages of rock strata in relation to time. The ultimate aim of chronostratigraphy is to arrange the sequence of deposition and the time of deposition of all rocks within a geological […]
Two hoodoos stand in close proximity on narrow, undercut mudstone bases. They tower above the surrounding erosive landscape, whose strata appear banded in varying shades of gray, brown and red. The blue sky above is enhanced by scattered fair-weather clouds.
A pair of chatty #hoodoos for your #twosday consideration.
