“Bored by the Lower Mantle? Think again!”
In my new @EGU_GD blog, I talk about how deep mantle dynamics can be “seen” with seismic anisotropy, revealing a lot more going on down there than we think. Enjoy and don’t get bored!😊

🚀 Curious about ancient Martian rivers? 🌊 This 'Features from the Field' is brought to you by Faris Beg, a Master's student under the EU Erasmus Mundus program.
Explore how exhumed river channels in Alcaniz, Spain, help us understand water on Mars: https://t.co/8Waurz0aGb
In this week’s post @j_devincenzo and M.A student Syeda Kainaat Jah will walk us through the best practices on how we can educate and engage more people in understanding the climate impacts and implementing effective DRR strategies!

The mantle’s viscosity structure is important for understanding the dynamics of the Earth’s mantle. In this week’s blog, @KennethGourley from University of Arizona discusses the variation of viscosity structure in Earth’s mantle in regional scale.

📢Tectonic Modelling Tuesday #53 - with numerical work by @MichaPons & co. (@GFZ_Potsdam UniPotsdam @GEOMAR_en@sgt_ethz), who show how slab steepening + hindered trench migration affects the Central Andes.😃
More info in their 2022 JGR Solid Earth paper: https://t.co/tWV629r5oX
The first of the two papers with @crpiceda is now published in Tectonics in open access ! 🥳 🥳 Take a look if you want to know more about plates interaction and the role of inherited structures and flat subduction in the Southern Central Andes 🏔️.

W. Jason Morgan, who in 1967 developed the theory of plate tectonics — a framework that revolutionized the study of earthquakes, volcanoes and the slow, steady shift of the continents across the earth’s mantle — has died. He was 87. https://t.co/19shsDpgvw

There's an @EuroGeosciences#poll about the question whether ECS should be able to do talks in session they are convening (see below). It seems to me that not allowing conveners to do talks in their own session is a good rule to avoid any issues regarding (apparent) partiality.
