I'm a #Mamademic! I'm #Mum to mini-volcanologist (5 years old) and mini-geophysicist (2 years old). Having #kids and doing #science requires some juggling!
Today, I'm #WFH because mini-geophysicist is sick. I had a really busy day planned and this has sent me into a bit of a minor panic. I'm still learning how to juggle and be comfortable at prioritising their needs over work. The snuggles are cute but it makes working on the laptop hard.

Our #introduction - (1/2)
The International Seismological Centre (ISC) was set up in 1964 with the assistance of UNESCO as a successor to the International Seismological Summary to follow up the pioneering work of Prof. John Milne and Sir Harold Jeffreys in collecting, archiving and processing of #seismic bulletins and preparing and distributing the definitive summary of world seismicity, the ISC Bulletin.
Today's Google Doodle is about Marie Tharp, a pioneering #oceanographer. Click the animation to learn about her - the video and activities are great!

Magnitude 5.6 #earthquake on #Java #Indonesia about one hour ago (2022-11-2ZT06:21) a little south of #Jakarta. There are reports of damage. Signal on station GE.BBJI (Bungbulang, Garut, Java) courtesy of @geofon and displayed using @obspy software. I hope that damage and injuries are limited. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us7000ir9t/executive

This leaked Chevron memo is infuriating.
The company spent $2 billion on lawyers to evade the Ecuador pollution liability, but in 1980 refused to spend a paltry $4m to fix its toxic waste pits because it wasn't "economical".
Chevron played God with Indigenous peoples.

You will see the Most Relevant Instances. Avoid those with Mastodon in their name. They tend to be slow because of too many new users.
Thanks, @debirdify@twitter.com!
Meet Eugen Rotchko (@Gargron), founder of @Mastodon, who just got a profile in TIME magazine. I encourage you to really read the entire excellent interview, bc not only will you learn more about the ethos behind Mastodon, but you can also hear what it’s like for an intelligent human being to talk about social media.

Hi everyone! I am a postdoc based in Pittsburgh interested in #climatechange #ecology, #forests, and #phenology.
My current postdoc research uses #roots collected from #Trillium #herbarium specimens to quantify changes in #AMF community composition across the past 120 years in eastern North America.
Other past and current research focuses on shifts in #temperate #plants phenology in response to warming springs.

As a #ScreenReader user, I find #hashtags at the end of a post to be suboptimal. As I'm unable to visually scan, I don't know that you haven't written anything after the hashtags, and hence have to choose between: listening to them anyway, or being okay with potentially missing content. When written inline within the flow of your text, this problem doesn't occur. #accessibility #a11y

Gotta remember to keep this handy. I'm always getting my eras and epochs and things mixed up.

Chukchi Sea #seaice extent is slowly increasing but still far below median. Extent is fifth lowest since 1978 for November 19 in NSIDC data but the very mild weather pattern is ending so the rate of ice growth will increase the coming week. Bering Sea ice is near average along the Alaska coast but below normal on the Russian coast. #akwx #Arctic @Climatologist49 @ZLabe
