Take a look at #thenarwhal article on the threat of thawing #permafrost on #Tuktoyaktuk. thenarwhal.ca/the-vanishing-…. The article mentions the work of fellow #GSC colleague Dustin. Includes some of my #UAV photos.

Earthquake research (including studies of past and present earthquakes) provides the key input for earthquake hazard models. In #Canada, earthquake hazard has been used in national building codes since 1953 (updated in 1970, 1985, 2005 and 2015). earthquakescanada.nrcan.gc.ca/hazard-alea/in… #NRCanSci

Happy #InternationalDogDay Also a great day to update the pet supplies in your emergency kit - food, water, treats, bowl, can-opener, and anything else that your pet might need. Some info on pet preparedness: EMBC: www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/pub… ShakeOut BC info shakeoutbc.ca/downloads/Shak…

Thought it would be interesting to see what the #wildfire smoke from the US west coast looks like from space using #MODIS imagery. #VancouverIsland begins to get shrouded in smoke on September 12th.

The Victoria #orienteering club will be promoting map and physical literacy through a series of mini electronically timed races at the @PISEworld Festival. Come on out today btwn 11-3. How fast can your kids get through this course? More info: pise.ca/family-festiva…

CH4 sensor doing the biz! Next to the compact met station. Natural Resources NRC Canada #permafrost #methane collaboration, outer Mackenzie Delta, NT.

Just wrapped up fieldwork investigating CH4 release in the western Arctic with colleagues: Peter Morse, @leximollica, Claudia Wood, @JackieGoordial & Jalal & Chase from NRC Canada. It was so nice to finally work with everyone in person. Here Peter takes notes at a #pingo.

It was a pleasure to work with the incredible Jalal Norooz Oliaee & Chase Sun from the Metrology Research Centre NRC Canada. We used their in-house developed sensors to measure & map natural sources of #methane. Jalal makes final preparations before a day of surveying. Geological Survey/Commission géologique Canada.
