Hatred, ignorance, fear, greed, and discrimination are viruses, magnified by suffering, carried in buckets, spilled onto the world. We cannot eliminate them by actions that magnify hatred, ignorance, fear, greed, discrimination and suffering - only by actions that relieve them.

New Research Topic on rifting and the energy transition available for submissions in Frontiers in Earth Science @rehachandresh.bsky.social @talents-dn.bsky.social www.frontiersin.org/research-top...

Researchers say the ancient breakup of tectonic plates creates churning waves in Earth’s mantle that tumble in slow motion under the continents for tens of millions of years, sculpting topography deep within continental interiors. Learn more: https://scim.ag/4s8GTEs #ScienceMagArchives

We have 51 ESPCDs available for loan at SEIS-UK. These devices are most suitable for shorter period surface wave and body wave studies. #SeismicSaturdays

#FieldPhotoFriday Sometimes flipping a switch is all it takes when trying to remedy a down station, if only the breaker that had flipped was local! The field crew stopped by this station near Jurupa Valley to diagnose and fix it, flipping the breaker and adjusting some cables is what did the trick!

@seis-uk.bsky.social has had seismic equipment on every continent through our work with the wider geophysics community. We supply equipment, software, training and expertise to ensure that world leading research can be conducted.

An explosive #eruption of Hayli Gubbi #volcano, located SE of Erta'Ale in the Afar Rift (Ethiopia), began at ~08:30 UTC on Nov 23. Eruption onset was fortuitously captured by a @planet.com overpass at 08:31 UTC. Hayli Gubbi has no record of Holocene eruptions. Toulouse VAAC reporting ash to ~15 km.
