Great outcrop of a strike-slip fault surface 😍😍 At the entrance to the village of Èze, France

Postdoc, experimentally studying earthquake dynamics. Wishful deadhead.
This is the second video when the first one was just last year. Such videos will become more and more common with future earthquakes, and I wonder which country will be the first to deploy a dedicated network of CCTV cameras along active fault lines.
Henning@geohenning.bsky.social · last mo.A new video emerged which seems to show a surface rupture in Yatsushiro, Japan following the M6.8 earthquake in July! Exact location of the video would be 32°30'04.0"N 130°38'29.9"E. Absolutely wild. Only the second ever video of a surface rupture forming after the 2025 Myanmar video! ⚒️🧪 #geology
Hard to believe I’m even writing this. Meteorological summer hasn’t even begun, yet Paris, France has already logged more days above 32°C than its annual average.

A thread on this paper! 🧪⚒️ The Tintina fault is a major right-lateral fault, stretching ~1000 km across the Yukon, and having slipped a total of ~430 km in its lifetime. It's generally thought to have been inactive since the Eocene.
Theron Finley@theronfinley.bsky.social · last yr.Really pleased to share our new paper in GRL, documenting evidence of multiple Quaternary surface-rupturing earthquakes on the Tintina fault in the Yukon. doi.org/10.1029/2025... @faultydata.bsky.social @earthquakeguy.bsky.social @thatfaultguy.bsky.social @tephrafan.bsky.social

The tragic landslide in Blatten gives me the excuse to tell you the story of how we found out Ice Ages existed. It's a cool story and the most important bit is rather similar to what's happening now.

#MSH45 | The Blast Let's back up for a moment. 3.3 billion cubic yards of rock and ice crashing downslope, the landslide buries the North Fork Toutle Valley in debris up to 600 feet deep. Behind it, A turbulent cloud of ash, pumice, superheated gas, and pulverized rock.
Two features that clearly demonstrate the on-fault displacement field surrounding rupture propagation are the plant next to the wall on the left and the gate itself. Since rarely do seismic stations located so close to the fault (meters away!), these features offer unprecedented observations: 🧵⚒️🧪
Douwe van Hinsbergen@vanhinsbergen.bsky.social · last yr.This is mind-blowing! I have never seen footage of the slip that occurs during an earthquake! Here you see the slip that occurred during the Myanmar earthquake. 🤯 www.youtube.com/watch?v=77ub...
Published!!!! The first article of my PhD and the first from the lab that I set up!! 🤩🤩 We study the dynamic effects of fault bends on earthquake ruptures by imaging shear ruptures in PMMA plates propagating through bends (double bends to be exact). www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... ⚒️🧪

Natural faults are typically nonplanar and exhibit multiple bends, which deviate from the general fault orientation at different angles. However, w...

Notice anything? 🧐 One tree-ring stands out here, with very pale latewood! 🤍 It's the famous year 536 CE, one of the coldest of the Common Era! 🥶 Early that year, a volcanic eruption caused a veil of aerosols that reduced solar radiation and cooled temperature 🌋 Subfossil larch, Aletsch Gl., CH
#FridayFold (Probably) Cretaceous carbonates tightly folded to a recumbent fold. Honestly I have no idea of what created this fold, aside from that being is an area of left-right extension and normal faulting. Really puzzling. On the Nuweiba-Taba road, Sinai peninsula
Wow!!!!!! Looks like it's the longest recorded surface rupture, surpassing the Mw 7.8 2001 Kunlun earthquake

The middle building is moving a lot more than the shorter & taller ones either side. It’s a real world example of the BOSS model simulation - how an earthquake can resonate with buildings that have matching natural frequencies, and seemingly leave others unaffected. www.LinkedIn.com/posts/mehrta...
