Happy to share our recent paper on tsunami hazard potential of submarine landslides from the East Sea of Korea (Japan Sea). We show that submarine landslides could generate tsunamis up to 8 m high on the NE coast of South Korea.

Set up the drill rig! 🛠️ Ready to drill and investigate paleo-tsunami deposits along the East Coast of Korea. 🌊 #TsunamiResearch #Fieldwork

Passing through giant submarine landslide scars along the southern shelf of East Sea of Korea!

Abstract submission deadline for the 37th International Geological Congress (IGC 2024), Busan, South Korea, is only one week away!  Happy to receive your abstracts to our session (Theme 16, Session 1)  on #MarineGeohazards and #SubmarineLandslides.

Happy to share our recent paper on the role of tephra layers for nucleating submarine landslides from the South Korea Plateau. We provide a new possible mechanism for the generation of landslides associated with layers of porous materials. https://t.co/gVJ47K1VcD

One more week left to submit abstracts to this conference:

Very happy to join the ICDP Fucino Lake workshop in Italy!!

[David Buchs @davidbuchs]

The first boninites found in South America? At least they look great in the field - they are mostly submarine volcaniclastic deposits, and probaly unrelated to subduction initiation.
More info on the science in our Lithos paper (or send me a message): https://t.co/Ig3Srm0Xc0

The beauty of subaqueous slope failures from Lake Van in eastern Turkiye!!

[Mike Clare @MikeAClare]

Our paper joint led by @isobelyeo @NOCnews is out in @ScienceMagazine on the fast & damaging flows triggered when Hunga volcano eruption collapsed into the ocean. Huge collaboration... w @RockDrWatson @jameshuntgeo @marta_ribo @scronin70 @TaanielaK & more https://t.co/G04gfXDljw

The call for abstracts for the 2nd International Conference on Seafloor Landforms, Processes and Evolution, which will be organised in Lipari (Italy) in July 2024, is now open.

The deadline for this call is the 15th December 2023.

Off the East Sea of Korea to acquire 3D seismic data with our wonderful research vessel RV Tamhae II.

[Dr. Deniz Cukur @Deniz__cukur]

As always, Lake Van, the largest soda Lake in the world, welcomed us with lovely data collection! We acquired over 600 km of chirp sesimic profiles and collected six piston cores targeting the youngest subaqueous failures. Pretty excited to see the results!

Searching for post-earthquake deformational structures and the youngest subaqueous slope failures in Lake Van, Turkiye!

[Dr. Deniz Cukur @Deniz__cukur]

Happy sharing our recent paper in Terra Nova. We propose an alternative interpretation for the color changes in sedimentary beds and suggest that they were caused by post-depositional fluids rather than the common orbitally forced climatic signals. https://t.co/2Avmil8QHo

Misty weather, stunning Ulleungdo Volcano, and piston coring🤩

[Dr. Deniz Cukur @Deniz__cukur]

What a great day for piston coring! Behind is the mighty Ulleungdo Volcano!

[Dr. Deniz Cukur @Deniz__cukur]

Our coring team is at work!!

[Dr. Deniz Cukur @Deniz__cukur]

Off the East Sea of Korea with RV Tamhae II. We would like to collect piston cores near the flanks of the Anyongbok Seamount to document mass-wasting and submarine volcanic events.

[Dr. Deniz Cukur @Deniz__cukur]

A great talk by @DrCraigMagee on magmatic plumbing systems! And the seismic reflection data can tell it all! @EGU23
