Hello from Lisbon! We’re IDL (Intituto Dom Luiz) — Portugal’s institute for Earth systems research based at the University of Lisbon. We study 🌍 Earth, 🌱 climate, 🌊 oceans, ☁️ atmosphere & 🚀 space to shape a sustainable future. Follow for science, insight & discovery. #EarthScience #Portugal

New in @nature.com: research led by @idlearth.bsky.social's @joaocduarte.bsky.social shows the ocean floor off Portugal is peeling away into the mantle. This rare process may explain the 1755 Lisbon M8.7 quake and could mark the initiation of a new subduction zone. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

⚒️ 🧪 Were you one of the tens of thousands in the Bay Area woken up by the M4.3 earthquake last night? The earthquake occurred on the Hayward Fault, which runs along the east side of the valley. Learn more about what we know, and don't know, about the Hayward Fault and its seismic hazard:

New paper in Tectonics! This was the result of a visit by Professor Wengang He from the Zunyi Normal University to the @cienciasulisboa.bsky.social. We did some cool sandbox experiments with interesting results! doi.org/10.1029/2024...

The region around the Pic Saint-Loup is a popular destination for many EU universities to teach mapping field courses – and there is a reason for it, even besides the great landscape, good food and nice weather. Join Lauretta Kaerger on a tour to find out! Full post 👉: tinyurl.com/PicSLoup

The Tectonics and Structural Geology Division has a spectacular blog team! We, as a community, are very proud! @ts.egu.eu @egu.eu

#GEOMOD25 field trip. We passed by the Telheiro unconformity. #idl @cienciasulisboa.bsky.social

Guess where I am?! @cienciasulisboa.bsky.social #geomod25

And we start with talk by Wouter Schellart about subduction zones topography using analogue and numerical models. #GEOMOD25

After a great ice breaker yesterday, GEOMOD25 will start today! Check the full program here: geomod2025.com?page_id=24 IDL - Instituto Dom Luiz, @cienciasulisboa.bsky.social #fcul

This article is also very well written. Clear and extremely accurate. @cienciasulisboa.bsky.social thedebrief.org/scientists-h...

Another nice story that deserves to be shared! :) @cienciasulisboa.bsky.social phys.org/news/2025-09...

Sismo de magnitude 6 no Afeganistão, junto à fronteira com o Paquistão, 200 quilómetros a norte da fronteira entre as placas indiana e euroasiática. O sismo ocorreu a cerca de 8 km de profundidade e teve uma intensidade de VII. Estão confirmadas mais de 600 mortes.
