⚒️ 🧪 The situation in Afghanistan is dire following the M6 earthquake on August 31st. More than 2,200 people have died; reports indicate that 65% of buildings in the region were destroyed. Meanwhile, satellite imaging has begun to reveal both devastation and scientific details about the quake.

Can creative ways be found to continue the Program? Only AGU is capable of coordinating multiple universities to run this program. This is the type of program that AGU should be leading to support our student members. It is also among the most impactful programs that AGU has.

🎉 It’s official! Today, we announce the launch of CLaSH: Center for Land Surface Hazards an NSF supported initiative to advance the science of cascading geohazards to enable a resilient society. Follow along as we share updates, opportunities, research, and collaborations! 🌎✨ #CLaSH #NSF

a quick "geee-" is all you can voice out before the 140 volt surge uses your heart as ground, dying instantly after 10 out of 10 diagram

Here’s a really nice alluvial fan I thought you should see

Not the point of the article, but DO NOT use a (red-green) divergent colour palette for symbolizing sequential data. You shouldn't ever use a divergent palette for sequential data, but esp not red-green, which can appear like below for people w/ protanopia colourblindness #cartography #mapchat 🧪

why we are doing this: PRI is one of America's largest museum collections, and they need to raise the last 1/3 of funds (~$1mil) needed to pay off their mortgage by Dec (a donor backed out of a pledge) or it will be the largest orphaned collection in US history. www.science.org/content/arti...

#Copernicus #Sentinel2 timelapse 7th Aug and 12th Aug 2025 - apart from stripping vegetation from Sawyer Island, the tsunami waves caused a lot of destruction toward Sawyer Glacier as well.

The glacial lake outburst flood at Mendenhall is still just beginning and waters are already higher than last year's damaging peak. Depending on how quickly the lake drains, it could unfortunately be a record flood for Juneau. I hope residents have had the support they need to prepare and evacuate.

A window into the English Jurassic . . . in Michigan. This 17th century stone cottage from the Cotswolds was relocated to Greenfield Village by Henry Ford in 1930. Marine fossils including bivalves and echinoderms are easy to find in its walls.

⚒️ 🧪 What do we know about the M8.8 earthquake that struck offshore Russia yesterday? We explore patterns in the foreshocks and aftershocks, compare the USGS seismic catalog with a local seismic database, and compare the event to the great 1952 earthquake.

Let's go NISAR!!! Successful separation - now we wait on the rest of the deployment over the next week or so. #nisar #isro #nasa science.nasa.gov/blogs/nisar/...

Want to learn more about earthquakes like today's M8.7? Get your info straight from the experts with this spectacular list of seismologists! Assembled by the awesome @geohenning.bsky.social: go.bsky.app/ND4oS9k

For everyone paying attention to earthquake & tsunami info, a lot of funding for tsunami & earthquake monitoring comes from NOAA, but the fed gov is cutting their funding. Call your legislators, tell them to fund NOAA & USGS, who in turn funds regional network operators, like AK Earthquake Center

Updated to a M8.7

More NISAR launch coverage and info about the launch itself this Wednesday www.nasa.gov/news-release...

Perfect timeline juxtaposition this morning.

After a long absence from Twitter, I'm now on Bluesky. Looking forward to sharing thoughts, research, and rants about the lack of attention paid to water. Let's kick this off with a new paper alert. Please share widely. Title says it all. Please help me grow followers www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Loss of water on the continents (evaporation, runoff from pumped groundwater) now outpaces the melting of glaciers and the ice sheets of either Antarctica or Greenland as the largest contributor of water to the oceans. apple.news/A0nmN23SyS1u...

Discrete tornado-producing supercells, derecho with a textbook bookend vortex & rear inflow jet development, MCS-supercell mergers... this is one of the most meteorologically impressive radar loops I've put together.

Congratulations to @kdevlin525.bsky.social on her newly-published (open access) article on the use of InSAR in active agricultural areas like California's Central Valley: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...

Episode 25 at Kilauea is happening now - wow!

So, if anyone missed it, the next eruption episode has started at Kīlauea. Lava fountains just keep comin'. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fiyt...

Peony popped today

beyond the thin veneer of concern behind all of these opeds is the much simpler truth that their authors desperately want to describe something that is very obviously their problem (fewer people want to post in the venues they like more) as though it were our problem

Now this just looks like a fun new dance I want to learn…
