I model the environment. And I must say, this season's environment is a particularly fine collection.

[Massimo @Rainmaker1973]

There are no stationary objects in the Universe: even our Solar System is moving not only around the center of the Galaxy (828,000 km/h) but also relative to its nearest stellar neighbors (70,000 km/h)

Long shot request: anyone aware of an open access pre-calculated surface slope raster for UK/England? In a perfect world, ~10m, but other scales welcome!

Don’t forget Christmas is all about data 😀

I love this time of the year, when the Vauxhalls turn red and haven't started shedding their panels yet

[John Armitage @johnjarmitage]

I am hiring! I am looking for a PhD student to work with myself, @ChrisAndermann, Micha Dietze and Niels Hovius to study the connectivity between groundwater, surface water, and sediment yield. The job will involve code development and field work in the beautiful Eifel mountains.

@Tom_Coulthard Fresh onions are green. Salt comes from the sea, which is blue. IT'S NOT HARD WALKERS

Making this model landslide reproduce very slight movement was actually pretty difficult. Inside the model “hill” is very frictionally weak material, representing a sandstone-capped anticline with a shale core. Real -life analog is high wall mining along a shale-cored slope.

@KathrynCutts Looks to me from pic 1 that the marks are only present on the high bits of the outcrop - so presumably surficial. They really do look like scratches to me. If it's right by the car park I wonder if they are using some kind of abrader to clear ice?

[Dan "Cats vs. Zoom" Hobley @Siccar_Point]

@Tom_Coulthard Now actually working on this has given me Opinions. I would have thought that if we need a massive, rapid push towards new uses of and practices on the UK's land, this rather requires working with the actual, current land managers...

I have discovered something monstrous, American friends

[Dan "Cats vs. Zoom" Hobley @Siccar_Point]

@RhianMeara @colegcymraeg SO COOL. Congrats!!

[Dan "Cats vs. Zoom" Hobley @Siccar_Point]

@Volcanologist @Tom_Coulthard @MichaelEMann Thank you! Love Twitter [sic] for this

Excellent thread

[Hank Green @hankgreen]

Massively under-reported science story because there's so much going on right now but...it turns out that we might have figured out what's causing this very scary spike.

Quick thread, on how WE'VE BEEN ACCIDENTALLY GEOENGINEERING FOR DECADES...but then we stopped:

@mickymicky06s @ucu Congrats Mikael! This is personally awesome, even if the sector is a mess...

[Dan "Cats vs. Zoom" Hobley @Siccar_Point]

@lizzie_dingle @GeogDurham Awesome, Lizzie! Congrats!!

Today we say goodbye to this great blue bird

This logo was designed in 2012 by a team of three. @toddwaterbury, @angyche and myself,

The logo was designed to be simple, balanced, and legible at very small sizes, almost like a lowercase "e", a 🧵

@GIStuart YES

[Dan "Cats vs. Zoom" Hobley @Siccar_Point]

@GIStuart Sad to lose the haunted-house ambience, tho

Hi @cardiffcouncil: an initiative like this is essential & wd be self-funding along Whitchurch Road by the Colonies. Multiple cars pass at dangerous speeds (>40mph) whenever there is less traffic on the road. Our excellent councillors @syhrtaylor & Ashley Wood will confirm.

[Manchester City Centre Police (GMP) @GMPCityCentre]

Our @GMPSpecials were on Liverpool Road last night enforcing the 20mph speed limit & dealing with other traffic issues at the request of local residents. Highest speed was 41mph in the 20mph. One car seized - no insurance.

Remember most of the city centre is 20mph….. G
