Part of the PATA (Paleoseismology Active Tectonics Archeoseismology) Days fieldtrip was dedicated to the Alpine Fault (see this post). Here I present few words and many pictures dealing with the recent earthquakes that have shaken the South Island, [...]

The Struggle for Life in a Harsh Desert: The Living Fossils of Fossil Falls

Earth science community is all watching the Arctic sea ice right now. We are very close to the winter maximum extent, and it may very well be the lowest on record. The ice has grown slowly due to the incredibly warm temperatures across the region [...]

A video has gone viral on Youtube, apparently showing a crashed UFO on South Georgia,. In reality it shows the runout path of an elongate boulder that was a part of landslide from a permafrost affected
