New year, new format! Check it out!

That time of the year again! Todays menu for 100 first-year students: stereonet and it's applications!

Vandaag de eer om op het nationale wetenschapsfestival #ExpeditieNEXT in Middelburg te staan! 100en spectrografen knutselen met kinderen om de (exo-)planeetwetenschappen te promoten in naam van het Origins Centre! :)

Ned Boulting 🏳️‍⚧️ The volcano they race around is most certainly not extinct. It’s alive and kicking.

First-year Utrecht University Earth Sciences - Utrecht University students doing some good work on the stratigraphy in the first days of their field campaign! Excited to be here again for another round :)

I had a closer look at a Frasnian reef this weekend, although admittedly being more focussed on something else than fossils ;) Fun nevertheless! (figure and text from Boulvain et al. 2022 - Geologica Belgica)

Also on @GeoTdF this year: short clips, for selected stages, in which we'll show you the geological highlights. The men's Geo-Tour is presented by @vanHinsbergen. We'll post them on our socials after they aired during live stage TV coverage! Geosciences UU Utrecht University NWO Domain Science (Inactive)

Wine is all about 'terroir', which is a combination of the soil and the weather circumstances at a vineyard. The soil in which the grapes grow is all about geology. That's what we are here for, after all! @FP_GDGT of Utrecht University tells us how ancient marine creatures called

When did the Hell of the North break loose? #ParisRoubaix2024 has Europe's most terrible pavement made of cobble stones. Why was it necessary to use those big rocks? In our next Geo-Sports clip, presenter Marjolein Naudé (Marjolein Naudé) explains how this is the result of the

Happy students as the sun comes through halfway the morning and therefore also a happy teacher :) Discovering some good geology around the Tarn river this week!

I did not stage this. I repeat: I did not stage this.

That’s a wrap! 4 weeks of sedimentary and structural/metamorphic geology in Fontaneilles and Le Pompidou. A first outing for 120 students into the wonderful world of rocks, very pleased with all the results. This was my last act for the university. So for now: goodbye geology :(
