My first paper, "Investigating the Effect of Lithosphere Thickness and
Viscosity on Mantle Dynamics Throughout the
Supercontinent Cycle", just published in @AGU_GCubed!

Always grateful for the support from coauthors Huw Davies & @Geodynam_Jam 🌍

In time for #EarthScienceWeek our paper published in @NatureComms today explores the interactions between spreading ridges and mantle plumes. 🔥

We found that when mantle plumes are coupled to spreading ridges, they can act as an anchor ⚓️ and impede spreading ridge migration.

A couple of weeks ago @Geodynam_Jam and I had a go at some Taylor Swift seismology and chatted all things SwiftQuake on BBC Inside Science. Still time to catch it on BBC Sounds! 🤠

@swift_quake @quakeshake_ @erastourdublin Thanks for the reply! We are planning to deploy a couple of Raspberry Shakes in Cardiff for when she plays here on Tuesday (18th), I think we will try to get one as close as possible to the stadium.

Brill end to a fab few days in Edinburgh! Celebrated being runner up in the poster competition with a sunset hike up to Arthur’s Seat and an Irn Bru to make sure I’d truly appreciated the Scottish hospitality of @BGA_PGRiP. Thanks again to all the organisers! 🌍 🌋 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Finally caught up with the news that part of the coal exchange has had to be demolished.
It’s only a building but I do love our heritage and this for me is sad.
Also avoidable and those involved in another Cardiff shambles in recent years need to take some of the blame here 😟

[Hungry.CDF @HungryCityHippy]

Half way through watching the Paul Whitehouse rivers documentary and happy to see this UK wide issue getting attention - local to me, the Taff & the Wye are both in really grim states.

Watch it here ⬇️
