I had the opportunity for a quick tour of the (relatively) new rock mechanics lab at the USGS Moffett Field campus. The work they do to understand earthquake physics at small scale of a block of granite is mind boggling.

Aujourd'hui, nous publions la réactualisation annuelle (depuis le 6ème rapport du GIEC publié en 2021, AR6) des indicateurs clés de l'état du climat planétaire jusqu'en 2025, le travail de 73 scientifiques de 56 institutions et 17 pays : essd.copernicus.org/articles/18/...

AI produces MORE editorial labor, not less.
“[To weed out slop] the journal doubled its deputy editors from 6 to 11 & nearly doubled its sr editors from roughly 30 to 60. All of this is volunteer labor, unpaid academics donating time to maintain scientific quality.“ www.forbes.com/sites/johndr...
A top management journal measured AI’s impact on submissions and reviews. Submissions rose 42%, writing quality declined and AI reviews proved uninformative to editors.
Une action concertée au niveau international et des efforts de coordination sont indispensables pour garantir la continuité et l'intégrité des observations du climat.
Merci de votre attention.

A M7.8 earthquake occurred beneath the southern Philippines today; the USGS estimates that 1 million people experienced severe shaking; footage shows collapsed buildings. The earthquake occurred within the east-dipping subducting plate that underlies the island.

After the remarkable account of the 2023 tsunami and seiche in N Greenland, another astonishing article that resembles a forensic examination 👇.
A wide range of analytical methods to study a monster #tsunami within an Alaskan fjord.
Fascinating. Kudos @watershedlab.bsky.social and co-authors !
🆕 🔔 In TEKTONIKA #DOAJ a new article by Marianne Métois @dblmm.bsky.social et al. on slow active deformation in France. ⚒️

This 👇 is the concluding figure of the two companion papers by Ménant et al. on the #tectonic slicing events at the #subduction interface. Just published in Tektonika #DOAJ.
It shows the temporal evolution of the Hellenic subduction zone since the late Eocene. ⚒️

Early in the morning of 10 August 2025, a >64 × 106 m3 landslide struck Tracy Arm fjord in Alaska. The landslide was preconditioned by glacial retreat caused by climate change. The resulting 481 m run...
