This from Magali Billen, UC Davis:

Dr. Don Turcotte passed away yesterday. He was 92 years old.

he was surrounded by family. His granddaughter had wanted to read something to Don in the hospital so his son suggested “Geodynamics” - she was reading to him in his final moments. ⚒️

Here's the earth science feed:

Highly recommend muting the automated accounts though if you want to use it - I love LastQuake, etc. but it tends to swamp the humans, so I mute it and go there manually as needed.

Nice to get a mention in the article on the challenges and potential opportunities of mining in Greenland www.bbc.com/future/artic...

Greenland is getting a lot of international attention for its mineral resources – but what is hiding under the ice?

The riches thought to lie beneath Greenland's icy terrain have been coveted for more than a century. But how easy are they to access, and will climate change make any difference?

You'd think that a volcanic eruption powerful enough to cool the climate would be easy to find. But for nearly 200 years scientists have searched for the "mystery volcano" that erupted in 1831. Recently, ash and debris in ice cores led researchers to a likely candidate in the Kuril Islands 🧪

‘Mystery volcano’ that erupted and cooled Earth in 1831 has finally been identified | CNN

Scientists have identified the “mystery volcano” that erupted in 1831 and cooled Earth’s climate. They have linked it to an island volcano in the northwest Pacific Ocean.

⚒️ is the emoji tag for the Earth Scientists feed by @earth-science.bsky.social:
bsky.app/profile/did:...
Most of my uses of this emoji aimed and will aim to share scientific papers focusing on Earth and planetary sciences or with implications for Earth and planetary science studies.

Scientists knew global warming was an issue a hundred years ago… and the right wing still denies it’s existence.
