Second time Biniam Girmay wins a Grand Tour stage, and the second time he does so on Adria, which is part of the African Plate :). It must have been in the stars 🤠.

Why is it worth studying #tectonics in caves? Here is a nice fresh example👇 From nappe stacking to strike-slip deformation: Alpine structural overprints refined by #cave and karst geology in the Danubian thin-skinned units (Southern Carpathians, Romania) doi.org/10.1016/j.tect…

#ecsmonday 🤩 The geometry and development of restraining bends are not well established. ECS Garvue (et al. / US) is changing that using analyses and #models of the southern Eastern California shear zone. Check out: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/20… #paperalert #tectonics #shearbend

How long do ecosystems need to recover from a mass extinction? I am glad to share today's paper in Science: "Biodiversity impact of the Messinian salinity crisis", in collab with @kagiadi and many others. 1/5 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

¿Sabías que, a excepción de las #ofiolitas, no hay corteza oceánica más antigua del Triásico? La dinámica litosférica crea continuamente corteza oceánica en las dorsales y la destruye en las zonas de subducción.

¿Qué tan importante es la Amazonía para el sistema de abastecimiento y el agua que consumimos en Bogotá? El Amazonas estaría muy cerca a su “punto de inflexión” en riesgo de convertirse en una sabana. ¿qué significa esto para la seguridad hídrica de la sabana de Bogotá? 🧵

At subduction zones, lithospheric material descends through the upper mantle to the mantle transition zone (MTZ), where it may continue to sink into the lower mantle or stagnate. Several factors may be important in influencing this flow, including chemical heterogeneity. However,
