We have an age! Check out our latest paper on dating lower-crustal earthquakes! We combined apatite U-Pb data with microstructural observations (EBSD, CL). Open access! Luca Menegon Njord Univ. of Oslo authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S00…

Fantastic three days Metamorphic Studies Group in Bristol. Thanks Freya George for organizing and @johneclogite for the kinetics workshop!

🎉 Calling all #EGU24 attendees! Join our division for some fun-filled social events! Get to know our team, meet fellow ECS members, and unwind with drinks. It's the perfect opportunity to network and connect! Details in the flyer. 🥂 #networking #geoscience European Geosciences Union

Day 2 of the tectonics field tip took us through the basement of Baltica and to the Nordfjord-Sogn detachment! #geology

Same rotated feldspar clasts, different year. Still #geologizinglikeamoho

The most beautiful outcrop in the world! Beginning asymmetric boudinage and veins provide evidence of consist kinematics during protracted deformation of the Nordfjord-Sogn detachment. #geology

The transition from mylonites to Devonian conglomerates is marked by crustal-scale fault. Impressive!

Last day of the tectonics field trip and the Lærdal-Gjende fault always delivers! Mylonites in the footwall, a fault core with several gouges, and cross-cutting fractures in the hanging wall.

A month editor searching for reviewers… Dear researchers, if you like to receive reviews of your paper quickly, take a share in this process and review others' papers, only if we all do that it may happen

Back in Lofoten! Today I have some time to explore new outcrops (and boulders 😂) with Stephen Michalchuk. My favorite so far the amazingly purple anorthositic dyke. #geology

First day of the FricFrac mini-conference excursion to Lofoten. Our basecamp is the most beautiful and historic Nusfjord rorbuer. We have invited international researchers with a variety of backgrounds and so the discussions have been extremely fruitful!

Interesting and very fun experience to give a talk in the morning and then directly go to the outcrops I had just talked about! Very cool discussions. I could get used to this...

New work in #AGUtectonics on the Rotondo granite tectonic evolution by Structural Geology & Tectonics @ ETH Zurich postdoc @aceccato_geo- have a look!

Straight from the Goldschmidt Lab at UiO we present to you Sascha Zertani giving a rundown on his latest paper: Dating fossil lower-crustal earthquakes by in-situ apatite U-Pb geochronology mn.uio.no/njord/english/… Enjoy!! 🍿 🎥

The lower crust is strong and can generate earthquakes during continental collision. This happened 420 million years ago, when Baltica and Laurentia collided to form the mighty Scandinavian Caledonides. Watch Sascha Zertani telling us how it happened. 👇🎬🎥⛏️🔬⛰️
