Two different impacts playing out now with lava flows possibly about to impact homes, and also road access cut off to the top of the town. We also reach a delicate phase of what we share.. People's home may about to be destroyed and televised through webcams. Be conscious of this

Catflap Dr Robin George Andrews 🌋☄️ Yes there's a balance between sharing information and "educating" - but at the right time, and not going "woah look at what lava is doing that house". Unfortunately, photos of impacts will be inevitable, the context of how it's shared matters.

Powerful testimony that highlights the knock on social and mental health impacts of the damage and long-term uncertainty caused by environmental hazards: "People cannot sit in handcuffs" ruv.is/frettir/innlen…

4! Harder than ever to find the time, but as passionate for Geoscience For The Future as ever-thanks so much to everyone involved in 2023, for your outreach, your time, your ideas & your passions!Thanks most of all to Hazel Beaumont & Jen Roberts, two of the most awesome people I know 🙏

Passionate about geoscience? Want to do some quick online outreach? Please volunteer for our French Geology Exchange! Chat (in English) to a group of French students about a geoscience theme you have experience in-the chat is online on Teams or Zoom, at a time that works for you!

Great time at Creswell Crags today with SHU BSc Geographers/Environmental Sciencists. All things past environmental change with cave exploring... and some interesting wall art 👀

Looking forward to a series of 'Perceiving Climate Change' talks this evening exploring perspectives from science (Rob Storrar Niall Gandy), tourism (Haukur Ingi Einarsson, Glacier Adventure), and art (Lise Autogena). Tune in if you're interested! shu-spg.eventcube.io/events/51633/p…

Geoscientists assemble! The The Geological Society needs the views of the geosci community on awards and nominations, to help inform a review of their awards processes. I'm involved in the working group on this and would very much appreciate you taking <10 mins to complete the survey below 👇

We explore perceptions of the geology from both those who have and haven't studied it. Both groups naturally have very different perceptions:

'Non-geologists' describe the subject as being niche, only for outdoors types, focused on describing rocks, and as being overwhelmingly boring... (amongst many other perceptions!)

Steven Rogers (@slrogersgeol) 's Twitter Profile Photo

'geologists' tend to describe an interdisciplinary subject that changes how you see and interact with the world, with a wide range of job prospects for a wide range of people - but then really struggle to clarify this when describing "what is geology"

Steven Rogers (@slrogersgeol) 's Twitter Profile Photo

We suggest geologists need to better align with other disciplines (including social sci and humanities), shout about the relevance of the subject in a modern and inclusive way and push the narrative of Earth story telling (processes, history/future)

Absolutely delighted to see this paper published and out in the world- was a brilliant team effort, fantastically led by Steven Rogers 🤩🥳🥳🥳🥳

Excited to launch the FIAMME project, an international network of folks who study pyroclastic density currents in the field, in the lab and through numerical modelling. How can we collect field data to move our science forwards and enable benchmarking of our models? Natural Environment Research Council

Very excited that the first paper of my PhD is now published in the Journal of Maps The paper presents glacial geomorphological mapping from contrasting topographic settings at Skálafelljökull in southeast Iceland! 🇮🇸 doi.org/10.1080/174456…

We are a gaming family- particularly card game obsessed. Cannot WAIT for the QUARTETnary game! Read more about it here! Thanks so much to The Silly Scientists for writing us a blog! Dr. Iris van Zelst

I feel very lucky to have known Prof. Trevor Burnard. His kindness, warmth, and vast expertise shone through in every conversation- and his early support and encouragement was instrumental in getting Equator off the ground. He will be greatly missed. theguardian.com/books/2024/aug…
