I am teaching Geographic Software Design (GEOG-510) this semester. Students will learn how to develop #opensource packages like #geemap & #leafmap. Follow the links for updates 👇 YouTube playlist: gishub.org/gsd-sp23 Course website: sites.google.com/utk.edu/geog-5… #geospatial

Join us in two weeks time for Simon Blondel's talk about a very interesting 🇩🇿 basin! Registration in the quoted tweet below:

My mate is conducting a seismic acquisition survey in NW China and he sent back this image took from a helicopter. I can already see how the seismic would look like…🤔

We have an awesome line-up of talks for the remainder of the AAPG Salt Basins TIG spring-summer 2023 season! We'll be visiting offshore 🇩🇿, the Sivas Basin in 🇹🇷, complex salt structures in 🇪🇸 and 🇨🇭, and possibly offshore 🇲🇽! Register below so you don't miss out!

Some positive figures supporting using 🇮🇪 gas vs importing. Emission intensities of 5 (Corrib) and 2.8 (FEL 4/19) vs ≈36 kgCO2e/boe for 🇬🇧 gas. That additional Irish gas still has to be found, but encouraging numbers! Read it here: (europaoil.com/wp-content/upl…).

Lovely views of Cork Harbour ⚓ An important spot for Irish energy both current and future!

If we're going to be producing all this cheap H2 then we will need to store it prior to shipping. Ireland's offshore sedimentary basins host several promising structures that could be used for storage of H2 and other gasses, like the Inishmore structure below. Paper out soon...

And me for the scale 😁

Pleased and relieved that this paper is out: An oblique subduction model for closure of the Proto-Tethys and Palaeo-Tethys oceans and creation of the Central China Orogenic Belt. doi.org/10.1016/j.ears…

Fluvial sandstone outcrop from Kuqa Depression ( and probably the best dog on top of the outcrop NOT for the right scale 🤭🤭

New pre-print! It's taken a while, but now you can read about H2 and CO2 storage in structural traps on the Irish Atlantic margin! We also present ascalable methodology for estimating storage capacity in underexplored sedimentary basins: researchgate.net/publication/37…

Amazing outcrops during a foothill seismic acquisition #geophysics
