Something magic but also strange about drill core. There is Earth history, with all the usually reclusive bits (contacts rarely seen in the wild, recessive units) exposed out in the open, in zigzag lines… here is the contact between Passaic seds and CAMP Orange Mtn Basalt

Deadline Oct 16 for Rutgers presidential postdocs, which are designed to lead into tenure track faculty positions at Rutgers. academicaffairs.rutgers.edu/postdoctoral-f… We also have a broad TT faculty opening Rutgers Geology jobs.rutgers.edu/postings/211474 Drop me a line if you’d like to discuss!

📢2 #PhD positions to investigate how magma shaped climate during key moments of Earth's history More information below 👇

I grew up a block from a splay of the Hayward fault. I remember the Loma Prieta earthquake—I thought my parents had hired workers to move our house. Even though I knew about the 2011 VA quake, how unexpected to feel this kind of shaking in my office in New Jersey!

Well! The Volcano Listening Project record is now finished, and I'm doing a kickstarter to cover costs of making vinyl (everyone needs volcano music on vinyl!). I'm really proud of this. Check out the video for a preview! It will be streaming this summer. kickstarter.com/projects/volca…

Considering a change in life? What about a spell on this fragment of a stack of flood basalt lavas in the North Atlantic…

To all who attended the Workshop on Mantle Supply and Imaging Magmatic Systems—thanks for making it such a blast! Great discussions (and huge momentum I think!) on integrating multidisciplinary approaches to trace magma from the mantle to crust to volcano Thanks U.S. National Science Foundation SZ4D!

Here is an amazing thing about field work in Timanfaya National Park (Lanzarote, Canary Islands). The older roads were quarried from the xenolith-rich 1824 eruption. So the roads are literally paved with mantle xenoliths!

Has anyone made or come across a compilation of mid-career fellowships/programs for scientists (ie things it might be fun to participate in during a sabbatical year)?

Check out these humongous dikes lurking beneath the Columbia River Basalts (and meet the friendly horses who helped us haul our gear up to explore them)! Great field work with Volcano Listening Project and the C2C team

What do you see? The C2C project explored this amazing (and complicated) outcrop with Oregon high school students. There’s an incredible story in these rocks…

The first of hopefully many papers from our U.S. National Science Foundation funded @c2c_proj, suggesting that cryptic degassing driven by a rheologic phase transition in the crust (shutting off LIP eruptions) drives prolonged warming periods in Earth History. Ben Black Tamsin Mather Benjamin Mills and others.

TT faculty job: Rutgers Geology welcomes candidates in all areas of Earth and planetary sciences with emphasis in #Geophysics/#Geodynamics. App review begins Dec 1.

Nice piece on our @Naturegeosci paper on cryptic degassing—aka a CO2 leak from deep in ancient LIP plumbing systems

Really exciting synthesis of high temporal resolution tephra geochemistry and seismic data to understand how to relate seismic data to what is actually happening in magmatic systems beneath active eruptions

It’s a beautiful day to learn about lava with C2C at the Watershed Festival. Made possible, like so many good things, by U.S. National Science Foundation !
