The January 17th, 1994 magnitude 6.7 Northridge earthquake severely impacted Southern California.

Did you feel it??

@C_T_1954 @JudithGeology I came over to say the same thing as Cliff! He provides a clear explanation. Attenuation and amplification are two different aspects of the wave propagation. Amplification does not eat up energy.

@mrbrianolson Single pulse! Still…

@seismogenic Nice jolt at my place.

Tonight's M4.3 earthquake was centered in Carson, near Long Beach. It was caused by strike-slip motion (side-by-side sliding) on a fault near the Newport-Inglewood fault zone. Small aftershocks can be expected over the next several hours. #earthquake #LongBeach

M4.3 at 7:58 PM today (=2:58 UTC on 9/18). Felt the p-wave roughly 3 seconds before the stronger shaking. Confirmed by my instrument's processed data (p~2:58:39; s~2:58:42).

So far the 2021 @SCEC meeting is off to a GRAND start! Another year of screen grabs alas, but if there's anything being a Cleveland Browns fan has taught me, it's the power of hope for "next year". #scecmeet #scec2021

[Brian Olson 🥥🌴🗳️ @mrbrianolson]

Continuing down memory lane (or is it a dark desert highway?). The 2016 meeting featured “The Periodic Table of @SCEC Leadership”. @ramonarrowsmith is slotted in for “Ra”, but truthfully, I don’t think he would ever secretly kill Marie Curie. #scecmeet #scec2021

@TTremblingEarth That is so funny.

The June 2021 SCEC Newsletter features an introduction from the director, Yehuda Ben-Zion, and a congratulations to co-director Greg Beroza for receiving the Humboldt Research Award - as well as topics on modeling, software, and mentoring: https://t.co/B6iYz0Nmyq.

A month ago: shaking experienced in #ridgecrest during the M7.1 #earthquake. Super8 parking lot with our GEER reconnaissance team. Had to brace myself not to fall.

And she picked the one with the accent! AI is pretty good!

[Michele Cooke @geomechCooke]

Comparison of @Microsoft365 and @GoogleAI slides real time auto-caption. Recording of @FaultCracker talking about earthquake hazards in her lovely Québécois accented English. Office365 has punctuation but since I use my residual hearing, I prefer the lesser lag of google slides.

“To get rid of assholes, you have to change the reward structure.”
@AdamMGrant (via WorkLife podcast)

If we want to change our academic culture, we need to start rewarding people who work elevate others instead of being obsessed with elevating themselves.

@a_sarmy Sorry I missed you!

[Christine Goulet @ZeGoulet]

@r_fildes @louisekellogg It was great to meet you. Glad the talk went well.
