Energy waves from a magnitude 6.8 earthquake south of the Fiji Islands is travelling across our Southeast Australian seismograph network

Did you miss last Friday's webinar with presentations from 11 organisations working on in ? Well, it's now on YouTube! Don't be daunted by the 2 hour runtime - there are descriptive chapter markers so you can jump between presentations youtu.be/D5S4pUhjJbo

#introduction
Greetings!

I'm Jaime, a #seismologist interested in rapid earthquake source determinations, radiated seismic energy, #Tsunami #earthquakes, induced #seismicity, and overall seismicity in slowly deforming regions.

Also, I am an #openscience and #openaccess advocate through Seismica ( seismica.org ) a diamond open access journal for #seismology and #earthquake science.

I promote science in #English, #Portuguese and #Spanish.

Hi, a first post to introduce myself. I'm Paul Denton from the UK, I'm interested in sailing and seismology, I prefer dogs to cats.

I have spent most of my life working in Seismology, and seem to have specialised in educational seismology. I spent some time setting up and running the UK school seismology project and still have an interest in trying to create the world's cheapest functional seismic sensor using Lego.

Currently working at DentonSeismo co.uk

An #introduction to #Australian #earthquakes 1/4
Yes, we do have them! But not as often and not quite as big as plate boundary regions.
The largest on record is a M6.6 - one of three (the others were M6.2 and M6.3) to occur in a 12 hr period in Jan. 1988 near Tennant Creek, Northern Territory. They caused a ~33 km long ground rupture (L photo below) and hundreds of aftershocks (R photos below) which continue - ~1600 events to date incl. ~30 >M5.0, the most recent of which was in 2019.

I (and a host of other science and non-science folks) am going to be in the new Cosmic Shambles Network documentary, “Rapid Motion Through Space: An Incomplete History of Speed”, which is released next year. Check out the trailer here! 🤓 youtu.be/6HPhhbDjZyQ

I believe Mastodon video uploads are limited to 40MB, so let's see how that looks. Here's one of my early videos trying to explain how we can have a negative

Belated #Introduction:

Hi I'm Lee aka Constababble!

I'm a science/climate/research communicator and edu-tainer (tbh hard to find a way to describe the mixed bag of what I do). Forever a farm kid in the city.

Background in #Climate #SocialScience #scicomm #science #environment #sustainability #stem #equity

I used to work in TV but now I do more social media stuff, MCing, reels, tiktok, twitch streaming etc. I like making factual content for screens and socials of all types. Aim to make people laugh while they learn.

📍Based on Gadigal Country (aka Sydney, Australia)

Cool stuff about me:
❄️ Antarctica for 3 weeks in 2018 (visited a bunch of research stations while there)

🎬 Hosted an Australian kids science TV show called Scope (2016-2020)

📚 Wrote a kids book called 'How to Save the Whole Stinkin' Planet'. Writing another one now!

🔥 Spent a year doing fire shows in remote and regional communities as a Science Circus performer

Uncool stuff about me:

😱 I reckon I'm developing bunions like my nan had. I also tend to overshare.

Oh. This works great. Here's where my twitter friends went.

If you're hesitant about trying out Mastodon, there's a handy app called debirdify that will help you find the Mastodon accounts of those you follow on Twitter. It lowers the effort of getting started and populating your feed. The app is pretty smooth. pruvisto.org/debirdify/

I'm a #volcanologist from the Philippines working mostly with #Taal and #Mayon volcanoes. I work mostly on #electromagnetics applications and methods, but also used to work with #seismic methods (#tomography). Nowadays though #DRRM (disaster risk reduction and management) occupies most of my time. I also do seismic hazards from time to time but volcanic eruptions are more exciting and spectacular.
Picture below was back 2014 when I was finishing up my PhD, inside Taal Volcano Main Crater.

Excited to be here! I am a #seismologist at Caltech and mainly discuss #earthquakes , with a particular emphasis on California

Hello Mastodon, or is it Tootland? I'm so confused...I will just blunder on, confused as usual!

I'm Heidi Stenner, a geologist and Project Manager with International () a non-profit focused on working with lower-resourced global communities who are at high risk of natural hazards and climate change impacts.

I have been an and with USGS. Migrated into . I'm most interested in and how to to reduce their impacts.

A bit more about me by way of #introduction. I'm an Earth Scientist who specialises in #volcanology, #scicomm, #pedagogy and #EDI.

I'm a field #volcanologist by training, and my #research focuses on catastrophic flows like pyroclastic density currents and lahars. I'm interested in quantifying the link between process (current) and product (deposit) to ultimately improve our field interpretations of the volcanic rock record. I hope this will lead to better understanding of these hazardous flows

#introduction I’m a #volcanologist and #geoscience communicator. I research how #volcanoes work and their impact on people and the environment. Dedicated to raising awareness of the critical role geoscience plays in #sustainable development and for society through media engagement and as Co-Founder and Director of the Earth Futures Festival. I advocate for #equity, #diversity and #inclusion in geosciences and co-founded #WOMEESA

Well, introduction time. If I understand correctly, it is important also to drop a bunch of hashtags/keywords to help the search on this platform.
I'm a aka a in aka I am interested in phenomena and related arguments like , seismic , monitoring and plenty of technical stuff.
I am living in and working at . I try to keep my toots job related. But my opinions herein are my own.

Hello #introduction . I am a geophysicist that works on earthquakes, mountain formation, landslides. I mostly use radar imagery and other remote sensing methods.

Hello! As an #introduction to me, I am a #geologist who studies #topography and how it reflects active #tectonics with a special focus on bedrock #rivers.

I am passionate about #openaccess publishing and #opensource software development for geoscientists. I'm looking to connect with other twitter refugees and new folks as well!
