Basic principle: any use of AI by authors must be declared, and justified, and must follow the rules detailed in our guidelines 👇 Respect transparency and #openscience #ethics

A very important point for our reviewers: It's strictly prohibited for them to use online AI tools to summarize or evaluate submitted manuscripts. Uploading a manuscript, or part of it, to third-party systems breaches manuscript's confidentiality and authorship rights. ⚒️

At Tektonika #DOAJ we now have guidelines about #AI usage. We encourage our authors and reviewers to carefully read them. ⚒️ 🧪 We will explain those guidelines and comment on AI usage in our next editorial. tektonika.online/index.php/ho...

We inviting you to TEKTONIKA #DOAJ 1st Open Meeting which will be held on Wednesday 5th November, 3-5 pm GMT. Infos in ALT text and below. ⚒️ More setails will be shared soon, but to sign up to attend please click this link to register your interest: forms.gle/JZb8mKvgPBAC...

Great to see our paper exploring the mechanisms for deep earthquakes in the southern East Africa Rift System published #OpenAccess in @wearetektonika.bsky.social 😀 Probably the last in a long line of papers that have explored this region's tectonics and seismic hazard through the PREPARE project!

Section 👇 from Shnizai & Walker in Tektonika 2024 @wearetektonika.bsky.social shows structure of Jalalabad basin, E #Afghanistan. It's not right across the recent #earthquake but more to the W. The earthquake may have occurred on a thrust fault equivalent to the one to the left of the section. 1/2 ⚒️

Want to publish in #geomorphica? This #factfriday we summarize all facts you need to be aware of. Full guidelines can be accessed on geomorphica.org. Want to review? Info is summarized next #factfriday!

In many physical sciences, editors are not remunerated (or at least not in a substantial way), and reviewers are already volunteers. Some good examples from the geoscience community incl @weareseismica.bsky.social @wearetektonika.bsky.social @geomorphica.bsky.social although all fairly young still

Imagine what could have been accomplished with $8Bn, if publishing was free. "...a total of $8.349 billion were spent on APCs between 2019 and 2023. We estimate that in 2023 MDPI ($681.6 million), Elsevier ($582.8 million) and Springer Nature ($546.6) generated the most revenue with APCs." 🧪

Do you make scientific figures? Then check out this handy little guide that @fabiocrameri.ch and I have put together for our editorial piece in the newest volume of @wearetektonika.bsky.social ✏️ The figure is available from @s-ink.org - download it, share it, use it!

@drlperezdiaz.bsky.social and I wrote a little mighty piece on how #geoscience visuals need to be different today than 60 years ago.

Be sure to check out the latest issue of @wearetektonika.bsky.social! Really proud to be supporting this endeavour in a small way 💪

🤩 9 amazing research papers and a brilliant editorial, all freely available, thanks to the collective effort of our community #DOJ #OpenScience ⚒️👇🏽

🆕 #Tektonika Volume 2 Issue 2 is now complete and online ! A great editorial by @fabiocrameri.ch and @drlperezdiaz.bsky.social "The Evolving Role of Science Visuals in Geoscience: From Simple Illustrations to Storytelling Tools", and 9 papers on various subjects. ⚒️ tektonika.online/index.php/ho...

BEWARE! The earthquake predictors have arrived and they’ve preemptively blocked many (maybe all?) of us that fought back against their pseudoscience and harmful messaging on the other site. If you have a question about earthquakes be sure to talk to an actual expert - many are here!

You know what.... @wearetektonika.bsky.social is way faster than Tectonics.

It's awesome that AGU outsourced the running of their journals to a for profit publisher that is now using our work as fodder for AI horseshit. Apropos of nothing, a reminder for folks who publish in Tectonics, there are good alternatives, e.g., @wearetektonika.bsky.social ... just saying.

It's summer in the N hemisphere, take advantage of it to read Tektonika v.2-1 : tektonika.online/index.php/ho... With our new editorial "Recognizing our Reviewers and Authors, and a Few Insights into Tektonika’s Review Process" and 10 articles. Enjoy #DOAJ, #openscience, #tectonics and #geology ⚒️

🎉🥳 @wearetektonika.bsky.social's latest Issue (V2N1) has just been released, with a stunning cover (credit: @drlperezdiaz.bsky.social & Y. Wang), an editorial, and 10 papers covering a wide range of themes in Tectonics and Structural Geology #earth-science ⚒️ #DOAJ tektonika.online/index.php/ho...

Really excited about teaching this short course... less excited about the fact that I have to finish the slides and my days are packed for the next two weeks 😅 Add it to your #EGU schedule! > meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU24/sessio...
