A Look Back at Ten Years of Geotripping: Time Beyond Imagining

Geotripper [2018-01-01 21:31:00]   recommend this post  (656 visits)

I had no idea! Almost ten years ago, on January 7, 2008, I posted the first entry on Geotripper. I had no idea where it would go, or how long it would last. A century, I guess, in blog years. I had not done a lot of writing before starting the [...]

Beautifully Violent Atlantic Winds

Ontario-geofish [2018-01-03 12:37:00]   recommend this post  (654 visits)

The UK is being hammered and the nor-easter is developing on the US east coast.  I've never seen so much action. The news in the US keeps mentioning a Polar Vortex, but there isn't any.  Just cold

A continuous drain of Pacific Heat -- also indicative of a cold decade

This is something new for me.  Don't forget that we've only had these great maps for the last few years.  Previous episodes remain mysterious.  Our minor 7 year El Nino cycles come from a build-up of heat energy (hot water) in the South Asia [...]

Bombs Away!

The 'bomb' comes in the incredible speed to develop.  I don't think it makes it any worse. The centre tracks right over the hot trench.  Can't wait to see what happens when the hot water current peters

Geotechnical 101 -- converting a tunnel

Ontario-geofish [2018-01-02 13:08:00]   recommend this post  (634 visits)

Reference This is a great picture, you can click on it for more detail.  The article has two estimates to turn it into a bicycle tunnel:  3 or 30 million pounds.  I would go for the higher, since I think it is almost as much as to get old [...]

Geology & uranium potential of Proterozoic rocks of the Central Arizona Arch and the Tonto Basin, Arizona

Arizona Geology [2018-01-05 17:41:00]   recommend this post  (620 visits)

We are releasing a second suite of Phil Anderson’s geologic mapping and research of Proterozoic rocks, which includes geologic mapping and geochemical sampling of the Central Arizona Arch that covers roughly 3,000 square miles in central [...]

NASA and the destruction of physics

Ontario-geofish [2018-01-04 20:26:00]   recommend this post  (598 visits)

Reference If we eventually look back and wonder why we got into all this carbon mess, the villain has to be NASA (n).  N had the best atmospheric physics in the whole, probably the only.  They did all sorts of great things right until about 1980. [...]

New papers on paleoseismology, tsunami, and active tectonics (Jan 2018)

I hope you’ve had a great start into the new year. A lot of new and exciting papers have been published at the end of the old one, including work on New Zealand and Europe. Enjoy reading and have fantastic new year 2018! Lu, Y., Waldmann, N., Ian [...]

Replacing the Nexus 5x screen - total failure

Ontario-geofish [2018-01-03 12:26:00]   recommend this post  (575 visits)

This was the worst yet.  The phones are becoming almost impossible to repair.  Such fiddly little parts, such bad instructions.  I ended up knocking off a solder pad for the wifi antenna, so the old 5x becomes parts.  Luckily, I know how to do [...]

Dear colleagues, we wish you a Happy New Year and would like to advertise our session on “Paleoseismicity, active faulting, surface deformation, and the implications on seismic hazard assessment (Fault2SHA)” at the EGU General Assembly in Vienna [...]
