India Physiography Rendition

Reporting on a Revolution [2018-03-04 16:53:00]   recommend this post  (634 visits)

I came across this physiography rendition of India via Simon Kuestemacher. The contrast between the Himalaya and the Indo-Gangetic plain is awesome. But I was struck by other features in the Peninsular region. 1) The E-W oriented linear [...]

The 1988 Spitak Earthquake with a magnitude of MS6.8 took the life of thousands of people and caused widespread devastation in Armenia. It also ruptured the surface and is one of the best-studied seismic events in the entire Caucasus region. 30 [...]

2017 North American wildfire pollution comparable to moderate volcanic eruption

AGU Meetings [2018-03-05 17:16:55]   recommend this post  (574 visits)

A new study finds the fires that spread throughout North America last summer burned so powerfully their smoke pushed all the way into the stratosphere, circled the globe in roughly two weeks and remained in the stratosphere at measurable levels for [...]

Climate Monday: Visualizing the South Asian Monsoon

Wooster Geologists [2018-03-06 02:05:49]   recommend this post  (549 visits)

Last Monday I posted some diagrams, animations, and predictions for El Niño and La Niña. So this week we’ll shift from the Pacific Ocean to the Indian Ocean and check in on the South Asian monsoon.  “Monsoon” is really just another word (of [...]

Arctic Sea Ice May Be About To Set Another Record Low

Dan\'s Wild Wild Science Journal [2018-03-06 00:26:54]   recommend this post  (524 visits)

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 [...]

What questions about weathering might be asked at any rock exposure?

Earth Learning Idea [2018-03-05 15:28:00]   recommend this post  (511 visits)

This series of Earthlearningideas suggests questions about geological processes that might be asked when standing with pupils looking at rock in a cliff, road cutting or quarry. The first of the series is about planning for fieldwork and the second [...]

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

Geotripper [2018-03-07 04:26:00]   recommend this post  (510 visits)

Fossil Falls, the Bureau of Land Management site near Little Lake and south of Owens Valley, is one of the strangest sights in the California Desert. The ironic point of Fossil Falls is that it has neither fossils, nor does it have falls. It is the [...]

Landslide weirdness – a landslide as a “crashed UFO”

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
