The Perseids is one of the best meteor showers to observe, producing up to 60 meteors per hour at its peak. It peaks this year on the night of August 11 and the morning of August 12. Meteors will radiate from the constellation Perseus, but can appear anywhere in the sky.
Landslides in the Fraser Canyon and most recently on the Chilcotin River have occurred in vital salmon habitat 🌲 Hakai researchers are trying to understand the aftermath of these events. Learn more about the tricky work of mapping riverine landslides 🔗 https://t.co/7G6gSiGUqm
Here’s an elevation change map of the Chilcotin landslide using pre and post event lidar. Estimated volume about 6x10^6 m^3. Map and comparison by @HakaiInstitute, flown by KÎSIK, data GeoBC
In view of the recent fatal landslide in Nepal, today, the ELI Team is publishing "Landslide danger – and climate change; case studies of how landslides work and the likely effects of climate change."

As we gear up for #ESfS2025 we are looking for enthusiastic geoscientists who are passionate about sharing their knowledge with the youth and public who attend this popular Earth science event!
Dromaeosaurus albertensis, the new raptor in the UBC's Earth Sciences Building, is one of the rarest theropods from the American west 🦖
They are closely related to Velociraptor but significantly larger!
School's out but the fun with hands-on learning doesn't have to stop! 🚀

#FossilFriday This bulge in the rock is a dinosaur footprint cast, created from sediment infilling the print and then turning to stone over millions of years. This exciting find was discovered by museum staff on a recent rafting trip along the Wapiti River.
Here at @NASA, we don’t take geology for granite.
