#fieldwork in #Lofoten ⛰🤩 with ⁦Stephen Michalchuk⁩ ⁦Sascha Zertani⁩ Francois ⁦Luca Menegon⁩ and ⁦Olivier Galland - Volcanologist⁩ who dedicated a detailed photo service to a lovely shear zone :) Why do new #earthquakes develop on shear zones, which should be weak 🤔??

Lucky to enjoy #fieldgeology work in #Lofoten to look at #pseudotachylytes formed at #lowercrustal levels, with Luca Menegon Sascha Zertani Francois Renard and Stephen Michalchuk. These pseudotachylites are markers of fossil #earthquakes

Another stunning field day for Njordans. Luca Menegon being interviewed by @eivindtorg for Titan magazine in his fantastic geological playground of the #Lofoten islands

The third paper of Ole Rabbel's PhD thesis is out, congrats Ole! It presents detailed descriptions of the complex fracturing processes occurring in igneous petroleum systems from world-class outcrop at El Manzano, #Neuquen basin, Argentina. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

A very nice article in Titan about photogrammetry in geosciences, from our Lofoten field trip with Luca Menegon, Francois Renard, Sascha Zertani and Stephen Michalchuk. Thanks for this article @eivindtorg ! titan.uio.no/geologi/2021/s…

Just arrived in LongyearByen, Svalbard, for an amazing field expedition to study Cretaceous volcanism (black rocks on pictures). Expedition team consists of Njordian Olivier Galland - Volcanologist, Hans Jørgen Kjøll (MN Faculty: Research), Rafael Horota and Jonathan Runge (UNIS).

Preparing for fieldwork in Svalbard is just a unique experience. Thanks for the UNIS logistics for great shooting and survival suit training! Hans Jørgen Kjøll Tomorrow we start the actual field expedition!

The fieldwork in Svalbard is going great! This is 210:40, full daylight! A bit tired and hungry though, and we must come down the mountain… yesterday very foggy Olivier Galland - Volcanologist Hans Jørgen Kjøll

After 8 days of fieldwork in Dicksonland, Svalbard, we are safely returning to Longyearbyen. 180 rock samples are waiting for our work!

- 80 km hiked in steep mountains - 4000 m positive denivelation - 170 rock samples - 2190 drone photos for photogrammetry - wet feet, blisters, torn toenails, and tendonitis Thanks so much to Hans Jørgen Kjøll, Rafael, Jonathan and Petr for making this expedition a scientific success!

We had special fieldwork conditions in #Svalbard, as we had the R/V Clione (expedition boat of the #Czech #Arctic Research Station) as base camp. Landing every day, return to boat every evening after long hike for safe and warm sleep. Hans Jørgen Kjøll Rafael Kenji Horota

A great, accessible article about the true volcanological state of #yellowstone caldera complex: far from erupting for a very long time. Very interesting to read, even if it breaks a myth. Don’t Call It a Supervolcano eos.org/features/dont-…

Check out the article by Njord Univ. of Oslo researcher Olivier Galland - Volcanologist published in forskning.no on the on-going #volcanoEruption at #eruptionlapalma forskersonen.no/geologi-mening…

Njord Univ. of Oslo researcher Olivier Galland - Volcanologist was interviewed as #volcano expert by Aftenposten to comment on the on-going #eruptionlapalma. An interview in the woods during a jogging tour! aftenposten.no/verden/i/Wj794…

The lava flow at #LaPalma made it to the sea. Authorities fear production of acid steams and the area has been evacuated. volcanodiscovery.com/la-palma/news/…

First thin-section images of #LaPalmaEruption lava, being made at Universidad de La Laguna and Universidad Granada. These rocks contain useful crystals and bubbles to understand the magma and eruption. @DrMattPankhurst especially thanks Jane H. Scarrow for these images.

So great to see that the new website of EXCITE is now open! Excite provides access to leading electron and X-ray imaging facilities in Europe, and plenty of opportunities for networking and #openscience First call to access the infrastructures opens on December 1st 🙂🔬

A new interview of @njord’s Research Professor Olivier Galland - Volcanologist on eruption at #LaPalmaeruption, especially the fate of new land formed by the #lava flow over the sea.aftenposten.no/verden/i/KzjkK…

Great video shooting session in the lab with Audun Bjerknes and Karen Winther from the LINK Center at UiO, featuring Res. Prof. Olivier Galland - Volcanologist. A tutorial for sandbox experiments of #Caldera collapse for course GEO4151 (Earthquake and Volcanic Processes). Funding: SFU iEarth
