I could have made up a detailed geological description of the geology of this alluvial plain at the south end of the Death Valley graben. This is a geology blog, after all. But we were there in the middle of February during the most extraordinary [...]

This Is Why The Record Warmth is Not Natural

Lots of talk about the global record temperatures that both NOAA and NASA (They do separate calculations) announced this week, but here’s something that doesn’t get as much attention, and should. Look at the graph above, it shows two [...]

Videos über diverse Erdrutsche und Bergstürze habe ich hier ja schon ein paar mal eingestellt. Ich bin der Meinung, dass gerade diese bewegten Bilder uns sehr viel über diese doch sehr rasch ablaufende Geologie erzählen können. Und das auch [...]

The latest storm to pass through Central California dropped 1.28 inches of rain in my backyard gauge, giving us 4.26 inches for the month of March, and about a third of a normal year's precipitation in the space of just ten days or so. By the time [...]

Californians Are Ready for Recycled Water
