“Surface Karst Landforms in Holy Cross https://t.co/2R0pVVJXaI an Archive of the Past and Zones of Activation of Geomorphological Processes” by Dr. Małgorzata Ludwikowska-Kędzia et al.#Świętokrzyskie#Karst#Geomorphology
On May 18, 1980, Mount St. Helens erupted with the force of 24 megatons of TNT, making it one of the most powerful volcanic eruptions in U.S. history.
The blast was so violent it literally blew the top off the mountain, triggered massive landslides, flattened millions of trees, and sent ash across multiple states.
To this day, the footage still doesn’t look real.
How much water is in magma? A new #GSABulletin study uses machine learning + Markov chain Monte Carlo approach to build a more accurate plagioclase-liquid hygrometer across tectonic settings.

Firnspiegel, or firn mirror, is a thin, shiny sheet of ice formed on the snow surface by rapid refreezing of solar-heated snow or firn, usually at high elevations during spring. Check out more fun cryopsheric terms in the NSIDC glossary. https://t.co/kzm3Gykc1J
Wait for it .... 11 seconds and BOOM! Some breathtaking footage from Fuego 🇬🇹 and
@BoiseState scientists in this great science update on infrasound sensors.

Today, a heavy snowfall has struck Noyabrsk, Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, Russia.
Within 12 hours, the area recorded 39 mm of precipitation, leading to a rapid rise in snow cover from zero to 31 cm.
Trzęsienie ziemi, powódź czy tsunami są zjawiskami naturalnymi. Katastrofą stają się dopiero wtedy, gdy uderzają w ludzi, którzy są nieprzygotowani, w infrastrukturę, która jest niedostosowana. Katastrofy nie są wyłącznie „naturalne”. https://t.co/MPX2OY01Nf
☀️ Today in Utqiagvik (the northernmost city in the United States), the sun rose above the horizon at 2:57 AM and won’t set again for 84 straight days or until August 2nd! Here's a look at a timelapse showing the sunset and sunrise this morning. #akwx
I am proud to say that my student @aleksandr_ao has received the 3rd price for the best geomorphological Master’s thesis in Poland granted by
@PolishGeomorph Her work was a part of my @NCN_PL project on #varves and #fire Congrats Ola!
Ice jams along the Athabasca River near Fort McMurray, Alberta has raised water levels by nearly seven metres, according to latest data, and the Clearwater River continues to rise. #abstorm
