Check out this new article in Precambrian Research by my former MSc student Santiago Serna Ortiz and myself on a Neoproterozoic #delta in #avalonia that reveals #syn-#sedimentary #foreland deformation:

@RNC_PoliceNL Come on @rnc. I lived in Nova Scotia during the Wortman mass shooting where at least 13 lives could have been saved if the RCMP had just used the emergency alert system. Very irresponsible especially with thousands heading to the area for the parade.

One of many great fieldwork locations in summer 2023! Folded volcaniclastic turbidites of the Harbour Main Group, Conception Bay @MUN_EarthSci #geologyfieldwork

We are just finishing experiments modelling rivers that cut deep channels (like when dams are built). The experiments help understand how to manage & improve ecosystems. To monitor the flow we add coloured dye. This is harmless to aquatic life & rapidly dissipates.

@the_palaeoninja @edgeofavalon @DiscoveryGEONL @DLowe_Geo @Northernpengirl @CoakerFoundn @munpaleobiology @ediacatherine @sedsnstroms @KDelahooke We love supporting anyone who is as passionate about #Geodiversity as we are! Thanks for the shout out. ♥️

All these shots were taken by folks that love this place as much as we do ...

A beach is a hard place for a sedimentologist to go on vacation. Made the most of it. Lateral channel migration and the development and growth of a bank-attached compound braid bar (riffles correspond with the flow axis) #fluvial #fluvialgeomorphology #rivers #sedimentology

Got to be productive, even on vacation! (well, it is just for fun)

We had a great outing back in June with cold Newfoundland nights, but that was all worth it to see some excellent Neoproterzoic delta front deposits! @MUN_EarthSci

What a title! It's begging to be read. And even better check out this #openaccess paper in @DepositRecord. The @sedimentology open access journal.

Looking at core today and found a baby Jurassic stick

Dear friends, please consider submitting an abstract to #GACMAC2022 session SS-23: Tectonics, stratigraphy, and natural resource potential of rifted passive margins: North Atlantic Ocean and beyond. Abstract submission is now open (https://t.co/G0feiDi8S5)

@RobertCMahon I bought a 16 gauge brad nailer today, after renting many times. Baseboard and treads watch out.
