After a solid week of lake coring and sampling for #storm and #tsunami deposits on the #Shetland Islands, we found this yet undocumented gem 💎 on northern Mainland - a distinct gravel layer inside the coastal dunes. Hoping for good OSL results 🤞🏽

Indeed, Loch Flugarth #ShetlandIslands is a beauty on the inside AND the outside! @stever60.bsky.social @uniheidelberg.bsky.social

Short stop at gorgeous #Forsinard Flows in the 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Highlands, on our way to the #Shetland Islands in search of further palaeo-storm records and #tsunami deposits. Stay tuned...

Full video of the tsunami in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Kamchatka, Russia, following the 8.7 earthquake. Wave seems incoming and a few meters at least.

☀️ #FieldworkFriday Three student field trips to Morocco (2018, 2020, 2022) provided the opportunity to conduct terrestrial laser scanning for change analysis. Over 4–5 days each time, we captured the full area with 31 (2018), 38 (2020), and 41 (2022) scan positions. 🧵 (1/3)

LA is in a high fire risk region & fire weather conditions are complex. So we @wwattribution.bsky.social looked at many lines of evidence. All show: our burning of fossil fuels increased the likelihood of such extreme fire weather conditions www.worldweatherattribution.org/climate-chan...
