@javvanne Hei Jouko, "oraakkeli" täällä. Maapallon keskilämpötila kohoaa. Nyt, ajassasi. Kun voi mitata, ei tarvi profetoida.
Nautitaan paukkupakkasista! Eihän tämmöstä ole edes joka vuosi.
Yllättäviä tuloksia Islannin yliopistosta. Nyt Svartsengista purkautuvan laavan koostumus on sama kuin aiemmissa Fagradalsfjall-purkauksissa. Onko Svartsengin ja Fagradalsfjallin välillä yhteys? Huge if true.
New whole-rock data! The 2023 Svartsengi magma has WR MgO 8.0 wt% and K2O/TiO2 0.23, nicely fitting the glass data. This magma is very similar to magmas erupted during the 2022 and 2023 Fagradasfjall eruptions, although slighly more fractionated.
Inflation of the dike is stabilizing to a constant rate over time. This means that the dike is still slowly getting bigger, which will continue to make cracks in Grindavik. We will see if an eruption will happen!
See you at @FEMconference. I'll be there to talk about the MinExTarget-project (@target_ex) and the services of GTK's research laboratory (https://t.co/GZ0syFhxUB).
The Fennoscandian Exploration & Mining conference (FEM) will be held in Levi on 31 October – 2 November. We are participating the event with our top experts from different fields of geology, and you will find us at the booth A3. See you in Levi! @FEMconference#FEM2023Levi
@JussiSHeinonen Päähän sattuu, kun miettii tuota taipumista. Miksei katkea? Miksei maa vain deformoidu alla ja pinnan jäykät kiskot pysy verratain paikoillaan?
@rainisto Puhuttelevia ovat! Mainioita noi nurmikentän pojat, jotka ymmärtävät keskittyä taivaanrantaan. Ja hirvittävä tuo, jossa punainen kokolattiamatto syö ihmishahmot.
@LuomaSamrit@GTK_FI I like my lavas with xenoliths. All kind of xenoliths will do: mantle or crustal, exotic or plain old gabbro. Always fascinating to imagine the conditions of their origin and the turmoil they experienced during ascent.
This is the first imagery we have of tiny cuboid crystals made of tens of molecules of NaCl emerging from the chaotic mixture of separate sodium and chloride ions. In other words, the first-ever atomic resolution video of salt crystals forming in real time https://t.co/ZVvmDSWf07
