Luke Beranek and students at Memorial University of Newfoundland investigate plate tectonics, clastic sedimentation, and sediment-hosted natural resources.
@MUN_EarthSci geoscientists get to walk the same hallways as Harold (Hank) Williams who generated the first tectonic lithofacies map of the entire Appalachian orogen. Canadian geoscience owes a lot to Hank. Happy #GeologistsDay!
Thermochron data can be difficult to analyze, we just published on the daughter–parent plot: a tool for analyzing thermochronological data https://t.co/4lN2FTzL9T

Terrific impact story about increasing lab accessibility for @MUN_EarthSci students from @NSERC_CRSNG. Kudos to the @mikebabechuk research group for thinking outside the box and creating a custom-built pipette station for a student with vision issues (https://t.co/NX6kWVtM4k).
Congrats to @MUN_EarthSci student Rosie Cobbett on her 1st PhD article that focuses on the volcanic stratigraphy of western NA, including bedrock mapping and volcanic facies analysis that provides new evidence for Ordovician seamounts in Yukon, Canada

During fall convocation on Oct. 19, Memorial will confer an honorary doctor of science degree upon Dr. Arthur King.
He is being recognized for his body of research on a crucial period of Earth history and his passion for earth sciences education.
Congratulations! #MUNgrad2023
Check out @MUN_EarthSci Prof Penny Morrill sharing exciting research about serpentinization, Mars, and the geology of the Tablelands in Gros Morne NP. https://t.co/Epjx8vxMPK
@alpeacegeo @MUN_EarthSci@McMasterSEES We found Tithonian DZ in Tithonian Jeanne d'Arc and Flemish Pass strata and both of those studies are published.
@KeepItRheol @manenbu There was a recent study on such processes completed in Arctic Canada by the German and Canadian federal surveys https://t.co/pqeAZEx2hf
The Stanford Geological Survey – 6 weeks in the field, 4 weeks at Stanford, 12 academic credits – ran for 100 years, from 1895 to 1995. Students and faculty went into the wilderness to learn about the composition of the Earth and how to accurately map it. https://t.co/BrH3XtIdBV

On February 15, 1982 the Ocean Ranger sank off the Grand Banks of NL, claiming the lives of all 84 crew members.
Today we remember those who lost their lives, as well as the family members and friends who lost loved ones that day. #OceanRanger#EnergyNL#WeAreEnergyNL
90% of GITs and 57% of PGeos registered in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador have at least one degree from @MUN_EarthSci@MemorialU. Our students/alumni impact the province every day. https://t.co/vt8h6FhqBi
