Earthquake geologist keen to nerd out on faults in the landscape and the dirt. 🇺🇸 to 🇦🇺& 🇳🇿 back to 🇺🇸. Hobbies in R&D phase. Opinions are my own.

A pleasure to be interviewed for @SeismoSocietyAm's 'At Work' column!

A lovely write up capturing my undying love for Australia's weird and wonderful earthquakes ❤️ featuring my current role with @GeoscienceAus and past experience including @shemapsau

[SSA @SeismoSocietyAm]

@tamarahking Tamarah King, is there a question you hear often about Australian seismicity?

King, a seismic hazard scientist @GeoscienceAus, answers our questions in this month's SSA At Work! https://t.co/Fi8fCCBtZt

@tamarahking @patton_cascadia do you know if coseismic coastal subsidence is incorporated into the tsunami hazard zones of CA, OR and WA?

[USGS National Uncrewed Systems Office (NUSO) @USGS_UAS]

We were fortunate to work in scenic landscapes and coordinate with talented teams across @USGS and @YosemiteNPS in support of the Ackerson Meadow restoration project this past year. #FieldPhotoFriday 🌈 (1/2)

[USGS National Uncrewed Systems Office (NUSO) @USGS_UAS]

In November 2023, we collected UAS #lidar at Ackerson Meadow in Yosemite National Park to provide essential data to @USGS and @YosemiteNPS scientists during the initial phase of large-scale ecosystem and channel restoration.

Caught our geologists gossiping about the uptick in seismic activity at Mount St. Helens

@Withers_Meg Congrats!

[Dr. Jessie Vermeer @HorstRider]

The eclipse was pretty cool

[Dr. Jessie Vermeer @HorstRider]

@tamarahking Congratulations! 🎉 🍾

Some of what I’ve been doing at work lately

[USGS National Uncrewed Systems Office (NUSO) @USGS_UAS]

In June, we collected #UAS lidar data for ecological restoration at @YosemiteNPS in collaboration with @USGS_Quakes. We worked closely with @NatlParkService for authorizations and permits. Recreational UAS use is prohibited at Yosemite. (1/2)

🚫 Live look at how my GIS upgrades are progressing at work.

@tamarahking @ekh_sci @GeolSoc @Geol_Greenhead Triangle calculator is a legit lifesaver. Second best feature is that it gives you the trigonometry formulas to use in code, but you still need basic understanding of trig :)

[Dr. Jessie Vermeer @HorstRider]

@BiancaDickson_ @kalesniderman @VeraKorasidis @IsotopeDude This is great news! Congratulations! 🍾

[Dr. Jessie Vermeer @HorstRider]

@RockIceandSnow I also am trying to find a solution to this problem

[Dr. Jessie Vermeer @HorstRider]

@SchirinSellmann That’s an incredible picture

[Dr. Jessie Vermeer @HorstRider]

Huge thanks to @DrSamuelCBoone for giving me a crash course in thermal history modeling. Also, @Aotearoa_uNZipd supported collecting some of these samples via helicopter which was a huge highlight of my PhD experience.

[Dr. Jessie Vermeer @HorstRider]

The last paper from my PhD is published! We used low temperature thermochronology and some large-scale geomorphic observations to help understand the millennial timescale development of the Hope-Kelly fault system https://t.co/rFMtUaqJWt

@structuregeo Not too bad compared to what we dealt with in the field, but I’m still covered in itchy little red welts

[Dr. Jessie Vermeer @HorstRider]

It’s been a good week on the South Island

[Dr. Jessie Vermeer @HorstRider]

@structuregeo No I flew into Blenheim!

[Dr. Jessie Vermeer @HorstRider]

The flat white coffee in NZ is so good
