Whoahh! The water in a canal/river sloshing from side to side during the M7.4 earthquake (or one of the aftershocks) in Taiwan.

Is the #AMOC approaching a tipping point? Here's my take after researching this topic for over 30 years. Open access, peer-reviewed, in full colour & understandable for non-experts. tos.org/oceanography/a…

Great place indeed… students below trying to understand implications of reservoir architecture, trap geometry and fault properties for CCS

Information laundering, the fire-hose of falsehoods and ‘borrowing board to reach the sea’. Sobering read by Anne Applebaum

We are really delighted to have Ken Rice and Uisdean Nicholson join us for pint of science this evening at 32 Below in Edinburgh. Doors open at 6pm. Last tickets available on the door. pintofscience.co.uk/event/the-orig… #pint24 #sciencecomnunication

See below for this exciting opportunity to sail as an outreach office on the IODP JTrack expedition! Drilling through the plate boundary that ruptured during the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami. Amy Gough and I will be there from Heriot-Watt University, with >50 other scientists..

Huge thanks to my co-authors Hariharan Ramachandran , Uisdean Nicholson , Prof Sebastian Geiger , Ana Widyanita, Florian Doster and to PETRONAS for their support.

Just a selection of some excellent 'event stratigraphy'💥🪨 talks delivered today during day 2 IAS Meeting of Sedimentology Aberdeen 2024 #ias2024 #37IMS including works of David Kemp Uisdean Nicholson and Romain Vaucher amongst many others!

Back home after a fantastic few days at #IAS2024, where I presented my work from the last (almost) two years Seismic Strat & Sedimentology Research Group! #EquatorialAtlanticGateway & #KuroshioCurrent in #Taiwan. Great to see some familiar faces and meet new #sedimentologists in #Aberdeen. IAS Meeting of Sedimentology Aberdeen 2024 🪨🌊

New paper from our research group focusing on regional CCS potential of the Malay Basin - critical first step in evaluating this basin as a regional carbon storage hub…

As expected, a new daily global mean temperature record, 17.09°C, was set two days ago on 21 July, according to Copernicus ECMWF ERA5 reanalysis. pulse.climate.copernicus.eu

Both the North Pacific and North Atlantic have astonishing marine heat anomalies right now. The purple shading are sea surface temperature departures of 15 degrees F. I sampled a +17F SE of St John’s (Dark red is +10-13F)

July Newsletter: Our last ever report from JOIDES Resolution, courtesy of Alba González-Lanchas; and Bex Robertson, Uisdean Nicholson and Amy Gough bring us up to speed with upcoming Exp405 on CHIKYU 地球深部探査船「ちきゅう」 issuu.com/uk-iodp/docs/n… ECORD ANZIC IODP at Texas A&M

Just over a month until we join IODP expedition 405 offshore Japan, drilling through the fault zone that caused THIS devastating tsunami. See the newsletter for more details. Thanks to Bex Robertson for writing! Amy Gough, ECORD. Image from Mainichi Shimbun / Reuters

Greenland is vulnerable to melting when CO2 concentration is even lower than today! Soil from the base of an ice core at the summit of Greenland shows it was 90% ice-free within the last 1 million yrs, reinforcing its high sensitivity to future warming theconversation.com/ancient-poppy-…

The surreal scale of the 2011 Tōhoku M9.1 earthquake,

Great to see this new preprint from Hariharan Ramachandran and co. on assessing fault leakage for carbon storage. This is part of a suite of fast-screening tools for screening storage sites that we're developing at Heriot-Watt University, as CCS needs to be massively ramped up in the years ahead..
