Newly available high-resolution satellite imagery collected by Maxar reveals sections of the surface rupture near the zone of maximum surface displacement of last week’s Mw 7.7 earthquake in Myanmar. Rupture is ~500 km long, with up to 5 meters of fault slip.

Naypyidaw Airport has suffered extensive damage from today’s powerful earthquake, with runways severely cracked and unusable, forcing the airport to shut down.
Additionally, the airport’s air traffic control tower collapsed, killing at least five staff members.
Some perspectives on the #sikkimflood disaster:
1. A landslide of waterlogged lateral moraine triggered the GLOF.
2. As at Chamoli, the landslide moved tens of m prior to collapse.
3. Anthropogenic activity influenced both the consequences and the triggering of this disaster.

Our founder @orchlon_e spoke with @montsameMN about how our platform empowers individuals to earn money and make a difference in the environment. "... a family in a ger district can earn $2,000-5,000 per year by selling carbon credits," he said.

I made a wee poster on the history of disability in Geology.
Feel free to share this resource :)
I’d love to hear more stories of disabled geologists and geoscientists- bear in mind this is only a brief overview. ♿️
