Nice (but scary) story about a potential earthquake in the Pacific Northwest...shoreline drop of 6.5ft. Great work by Tina Dura (Tina Dura) and team! Geosciences at VT Virginia Tech Science nbcnews.com/science/earthq… via @nbcnews

EOS Prof Andrea Hawkes coauthored a new paper in the prestigious journal PNAS entitled "Increased flood exposure in the Pacific Northwest following earthquake-driven subsidence and sea-level rise". You can see the paper at: pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Along the #PacificNorthwest coast, a massive earthquake from the #CascadiaSubductionZone could not only trigger #tsunamis and devastating shaking, but also cause 0.5 to 2 meters (1.6 to 6.6 feet) of sudden #landsubsidence, new research finds: ow.ly/akwj50VNLkC

Last week was crazy with the release of our paper and the media frenzy around it! The headlines started out reasonable, then fully left containment. A fascinating journey through our current media landscape🙃. Here’s the paper behind the headlines ICYMI! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Check out this nicely done (and short!) USGS Coastal Change video about our Cascadia earthquake-driven subsidence paper 🌊🌊🌊 USGS news release is here: usgs.gov/centers/pcmsc/… Study here: pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… Geosciences at VT Virginia Tech Science

Read highlights in this week’s issue of PNAS: We examine earthquakes and sea-level rise in the Pacific Northwest, investigate convergence in skull shapes of cats and dogs, and explore societal stability amid rapid expansion. In PNAS: ow.ly/Vey150VR486

I’m excited to share our recent paper with Tina Dura . We looked at macroplastic degradation and fragmentation in low-order riverine system. Thanks to the grad students and UGs that assisted in the year long study allowing us to narrow the knowledge gap academic.oup.com/etc/advance-ar…

Congrats to Austin D. Gray, Ph.D. on this excellent paper! It was fun to be a part of it and gain more experience in the world of microplastics!

A future megaquake on the Cascadia subduction zone could cause land to sink by 2 meters—greatly expanding floodplains. Combined with sea-level rise, flood risk may more than triple by 2100, a new study warns. In ABC7: ow.ly/v4me50W2B4P In PNAS: ow.ly/iPi350W2B4N

A story about earthquake-driven subsidence, with a tsunami headline. Nice story, though! sciencefocus.com/news/100-ft-me…
