Pet peeve: People who converse in whispers in libraries 😤 😡 🧐

Last months until PhD thesis submission and the stress, worry, imposter syndrome and "have I done enough?", "Is it all crap?" come and go like a harbour filling and emptying during a large tsunami. 👨🏾‍🎓 😓 🤯

What on earth did I just wake up to? 🫥 🫥 🫥

Is that a swarm underway in the Port Hedland, WA, area?

M4.5 in Hingoli district in central Maharashtra in south-central India. This is the second event in this magnitude range in this general region since March. Given the location, there could be minor damage, but this will definitely have been felt in many parts of Marathwada.

Temporary escape from the Planet of the PhD Thesis

What many people do not understand about celebrity scientists is that there is a lot going on behind the scenes, visible and known to colleagues, that is hidden behind a false public persona. Or should I say, plenty of smoke and mirrors are at play. 😔 😥 🧑🏾‍

The M4.5-4.8 earthquake NNE of Basmat and SSE of Hingoli in the state of Maharashtra at ~6:10 AM Indian Standard Time is one of the strongest earthquakes in the Marathwada region in south-central India in many, many, many years. 🇮🇳

nice article in AGU EOS about the 'promise and problems' of using turbidite deposits as recorders of past earthquakes — a great example of why it's so important to study fundamental processes — these records could be very important for assessing risk, but much more to learn ⚒️ eos.org/science-upda...

A magnitude 3.5 earthquake just occurred near Silverdale, west of Sydney NSW. Head to Geoscience Australia’s website to report what you felt

This is gold for social media: ".... the verdict can be viewed more optimistically as appropriately directing matters of opinion to blogs and opinion columns while matters of scientific disagreement are handled in the literature of scientific record."

Odd but not out of the ordinary in southern Kalimantan (Borneo). I wonder if the 65km depth will hold up as more instrumental observations come in. (geofon.gfz-potsdam.de/eqinfo/event...)

Do you want to learn about the impacts of the M9 Cascadia subduction #earthquake that struck at 9 p.m. on this night, 324 years ago? Strong shaking, a tsunami and landslides as described in Indigenous oral traditions from #VancouverIsland to #California. hakaimagazine.com/features/gre...

The Great Quake and the Great Drowning | Hakai Magazinehakaimagazine.com Mega-quakes have periodically rocked North America’s Pacific Northwest. Indigenous people told terrifying stories about the devastation but refused to leave.

Where is Kirrilly? 🌀 🧪 🦺

Mw 7.0 earthquake along the China-Kyrgystan border. This is probably a rare instance (?) of a shallow earthquake in Central Asia (and not the Hindukush) being felt as far as the Delhi region. My guess is these effects are mainly from high-rise apartment buildings in Delhi, Gurugram, and Noida.

Brave little lamppost!

Macroseismic observations are an integral part of my research. They can be subjective (as some of you will rightfully point out!), which stems from interpreting written accounts. Without first-hand experience or videos such as this, the capricious nature of severe ground motion is hard to gauge.
