More than 6 meters of ice melt at Konkordiaplatz. Simply incredible. Something the climate scenarios had for the future. But now, we're already there...

The world-famous Snowbirds delivered a message in the skies above Metro Vancouver this afternoon as part of Operation Inspiration. The formation flew past the region's hospitals, saying thanks to health care workers for their efforts during the pandemic.

@BCFerries Another momentous day trying to book a ferry reservation online. I guess you weren’t notified travel restrictions were lifted. Website sloooooooowwww. #bcferriesfail so tired of your fails. I get it. You don’t have to care.
Stan, my niece’s dog, got a stuffed fren for Christmas. He knew it was for him and opened it himself. He seems to really like it. Not sure if he will name him sebastian? I hope so. @dog_feelings
Gwenn Flowers SFU is in the news again!
Yukon glaciers offer early warning of what climate change could mean for rest of planet | CBC News https://t.co/4PuKph4TYp #SFUEarthSciences
SFU Earth Sciences's very own Dr. Gwenn Flowers was on the National last night. She and others discuss Climate change in the arctic: melting glaciers, changing drainage patterns, and resulting changing ecosystems. The piece starts around the 26 min mark. #SFUEarthSciences
Impressive imagery. One very large landslide and numerous smaller ones, and this is jut an area that is ~5 x 5 km. Another reason that communication and providing help are so difficult after an Earthquake.
Glijstort t.b.v. het gebouw voor de huisvesting van EMA (European Medicines Agency). Betonlevering 24/7 tot hoogte van 80 meter bereikt is. Mooie prestatie van alle betrokken partijen.
Day 1 of the Quaternary exercise on fieldschool. Showing the students the love of all things Quaternary: Sediments, landslides, rivers! Great glacial stratigraphy along the Cowichan River. Smokeless sunset at the Cowichan Lake Research Station! #SFUGlacialGeology#fieldschool
Day 2 of the Quaternary exercise on fieldschool. Students learning how great gravel pits are! My wife gets to visit gravel pits when we are on holiday! Me here is an amazing subaqueous outwash sequence in Butler Brothers Gravel pit in Duncan. #SFUGlacialGeology#fieldschool
Interesting soft sediment deformation in deglacial sediments at Butler Brothers gravel pit in Duncan. Thinking it may be a seismite. Deformation extends across the section in same stratigraphic position. Or possibly ice berg plow? #SFUGlacialGeology#fieldschool
Interesting laminated clastic dike cutting through glaciolacustrine silt and clay. Not sure if it is coming up from below the gravel, or injected above from the till. Think it is down, but too steep to check. Love some feedback. #SFUGlacialGeology#CowichanRiver
Showing hydrogeologists Aaron Cahill and Max Goetz, (UBC) Andrew Allen (SFU) the joys of Quaternary Geology, and gravel pits of course! Smoky up here in the Peace. #SFUGlacialGeology
