Did you know there was an ice-contact lake in what is now the North Sea? Much farther south than expected. During MIS3. No? Read all about here... www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

We reveal, at sub-annual resolution, the ~74 ka Toba super-eruption‘s acute, but short-lived impact on eastern African climate using varved sediments in Lake Chala (Kenya/Tanzania)! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Sub-annual resolution evidence for limited impact of the 74-ka Toba eruption on eastern African climate

Sub-annually resolved lake sediments suggest the Toba eruption caused modest cooling and drought in eastern Africa.

Still recovering from a busy but wonderful week at #ISC2026 in Wellington! Lovely to hear all the great #sedimentology going on and seeing so many friends and colleagues make the trip to this side of the world 🤩 Thanks for the great organization to @sedimentology.bsky.social and see you next time!

It's #WorldTsunamiAwarenessDay. Before warning systems existed, tsunamis could be a surprise. A 1946 M8.6 earthquake in Alaska launched a tsunami that devastated Hilo, HI and killed >150 in the HI Islands. Now warning infrastructure in AK is being defunded, weakening the network. ⚒️🧪🌊 bit.ly/4oqexnR

Tsunami

56 years ago today a devastating Tsunami tore through our Hilo Town. It may have taken us to our knees, but we did not break. Instead, we rebuilt, stronger, and more prepared. Listen as survivors of both the 1946 and 1960 Tsunami tell their story. Please enjoy this mini Documentary done as a collaboration with Taylor Martin Media and the Pacific Tsunami Museum. Enjoy

⚒️ 🧪 What do we know about the M8.8 earthquake that struck offshore Russia yesterday? We explore patterns in the foreshocks and aftershocks, compare the USGS seismic catalog with a local seismic database, and compare the event to the great 1952 earthquake.

⚒️ 🧪 A M8.8 earthquake just ruptured the subduction zone offshore Russia’s Kamchatka peninsula. This is one of the world’s truly huge earthquakes, and a triggered tsunami is currently traveling across the Pacific ocean. This same fault ruptured on July 20th in a M7.4, and last August in a M7.1.
