I haven’t posted here much yet, but would like to understand who is reading. If you’ve done similar polls I’d be interested in your insights on your Mastodon audience versus other platforms. Who are you?

3. We have a list of #Earthodons or #GeoMastodon or whatever we’re calling ourselves nowadays) that you can use to follow lots of interesting people at once: all-geo.org/mastodon-earthsci/

Hi! I’m a research scientist at the Geological Survey of Canada and adjunct professor at the University of British Columbia and the University of Victoria. I study #earthquakes and focus mostly on #SeismicRisk and #ActiveTectonics. I’m interested in #Paleoseismology #Neotectonics #Seismology #Geodesy and #SeismicHazard.

I’m also chair of the #AGU Hazards Equity Working Group, a Fast Reports editor at @weareseismica and a Building Equity & Capacity committee member for #SZ4D.

#introduction #introductionpost #helloworld I am a #seismologist & #artificialintelligence #highperformancecomputing enthusiast based in Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies #Germany and my #research currently focusses on the #applications of #machinelearning & #deeplearning in #seismology . I did my #phd from #iit Kharagpur where i studied #sitecharacterization, #soilliquefaction & #seismicmicrozonation . Would love to connect with like minded people and fellow #researchers . #womeninstem

Since there was interest, I have set up a Google Form/Sheet for Earth Scientists on Mastodon.

Interested in #geology and #EarthScience and want people to find you? Add your name.

However, please do not add anyone who is not you without explicit permission - some people might prefer to be discovered more organically, or not at all.

If you're still looking for seismology and related tooters, here's a few more. Please comment to add people to the list (remove the existing tags or you might hit a character limit):

Seriously though, fedi was *built* by furries, trans and queer folk, disabled neurodivergent people.

This is *the reason* the culture here is what it is. Why CWs are a thing. Why image descriptions are a thing. Why privacy matters here. Why moderation tools not only exist, but are usable — and used.

If you had joined and asked yourself "wow, how come this place is so chill and kinda… nice?" — that's thanks to all the nice people from communities some people call "weird".

So #KeepFediWeird.

This process began ~53 million years ago, and is ongoing today.

The Himalayan #mountains are the result of this collision, with #earthquakes thrusting them up and erosion tearing them down. Clearly, tectonic uplift is still winning that battle!

Regional compression (from the collision) produces broadly distributed earthquakes north of the plate boundary. But the largest earthquakes occur on the shallow part of the megathrust boundary (the largest active continental megathrust boundary on 🌍).

hello there! I am Leila, I do #earthquake #statistics (mostly #seismicity #forecasting) at ETH in Zurich.

besides earthquakes, I am interested in #mathematics, #logic, #pythonprogramming, #EquityandEquality, #openscience, #climbing, being #outdoors and am always excited to learn something new! will use this account mostly to talk about work-related interests.

This most recent #Fiji M7.0 earthquake is not as close to the bottom of the local #intraslab seismicity as the previous deep #earthquakes a few days ago.
(note that the focal #mechanisms are projected onto the vertical cross section)

Hello world! I am a #seismology Postdoc at #BrownUniversity and soon-to-be Assistant Prof at #SyracuseUniversity. I'm interested in how continents break apart to form new oceans and how today's ocean basins continue to evolve.

I use ground vibrations to image Earth's #crust and upper #mantle. Specifically, I measure anisotropy and attenuation of seismic waves to understand deformation and roles of melt/volatiles in Earth's interior.

#introduction #EarthScience #geophysics #seismologist #geo

Time for an #introduction!

I'm Gareth, a Professor of #Geophysics at the University of California, Riverside.

I use #InSAR, #GNSS and #seismology to study #earthquakes, crustal deformation and the behavior of faults. I am Chair Elect of the EarthScope Consortium board, and one of the founders of the #DiamondOpenAccess journal Seismica.

Originally British, I moved to California because there are lots of earthquakes here! And now I get to respond to them when they occur! I love my job!

Re-#introduction, this time with added hashtags
Hello (again). I’m Dr Ian Stimpson, Senior Lecturer in #Geophysics at #KeeleUniversity, UK.
Background in #Geology & #Seismology these days mostly involved with #Scicomm via tcs.ah-epos.eu (#InducedSeismicity).
Lecture in #NearSurfaceGeophysics #Geoconservation #StructuralGeology & #ReservoirGeophysics plus the odd bit of #Python #GIS and #RemoteSensing. Compiler of #Geotrails recorder of #Earthquakes and #Lidar scanner of pot banks.

@allochthonous Last week I started a list of scientists I had found here within the first few days of . I plan to update it by tagging people in further comments. Everyone: feel free to do the same. I’m not sure how this link to the original post will appear as I can’t find how to or but here goes nothing: qoto.org/@seislologist/1092947

If you're here on the Fediverse right now, you're probably experiencing shock.

You're coming to grips with ideas that were previously foreign to you: decentralization, federation, instances, etc.

This is intimidating -- probably even scary.

But while you might feel like a noob (and you are), you're also on the cutting edge of *the* biggest communications revolution in a generation!

@DeeNinis @ulixes_lactanis @ALomax yep, I was a bit too keen to toot without zooming in on the map first…

@ulixes_lactanis @seislologist This looks to be east of Fiji i.e. closer to Tonga - it locates almost right on the Tonga Trench. And with a shallow reverse rupture this is more likely to be a subduction interface event which is different to yesterday’s (deep with normal rupture mechanism - within the down-going slab).
