if you are interested in looking at past earthquakes by measuring offset features to derive slip distribution for ancient earthquakes, check out the new paper by Reitman et al. ipgp.fr/~klinger/web_Y…

A research project involving Prof James Baldini, from our Durham Earth Science, features on the front cover of @NatGeoMag. The groundbreaking research is captured on the front of their December issue which celebrates the best photographs of the year. 👉 durham.ac.uk/news-events/la…

🔊New paper! 🌍 Why did the NW Zagros foreland basin accumulate up to 4 km of sediments during the Neogene, deeper than expected, given the nearby moderate topography? ♦️Flexural subsidence + dynamic substance se.copernicus.org/articles/15/13… @geoGoettingen Institute of Geological Sciences, Uni Bern Solid Earth

January 6, 1879, birthday of Swiss geologist Émile Argand. As an early supporter of A.Wegener, he used continental drift theory to explain the Alps as a succession of overthrusted & deformed tectonic nappes as Africa collided with Europe ⛰️ bressan-geoconsult.eu/why-plate-tect…

Very flattered by this invitation to deliver the 2025 Royal Astronomical Society Harold Jeffreys lecture - in honour of a Durham University alumnus who made seminal contributions to geophysics and probability theory, and who also happens to be my great-great-grand-PhD-advisor!

I’m SO excited and grateful to be one of the artists in residence at European Geosciences Union this year! Looking forward to lots of discussions about #geoart 🌋🦖

#The Neotethys #OceanicPlate is detaching beneath the Arabian and Eurasian continents, reshaping Earth's surface. This process influences sediment accumulation and earthquake risk assessment. @unigoettingen doi.org/n374 phys.org/news/2025-01-o…

🌊 Today in nature: Is the AMOC on the brink of collapse? Unlikely before 2100—but the risks are real 🚨 We find Southern Ocean winds keep this vital ocean “heat engine” running, even under extreme #climatechange. But the Pacific holds a surprise… Let’s explore 🧵👇

This is very sad news. Brian was my PhD supervisor; I owe him a huge amount for his support and guidance. He had a brilliant ability to see connections which had escaped everyone else.
