BBC writes: The United Arab Emirates planned to use its role as the host of UN #climate talks as an opportunity to strike oil and gas deals. 😒

I love this week's cover of #Science, with the famous north faces of the Tre Cime di Lavaredo ⛰️ in the Italian #Dolomites.

On BBC, Macron calls for cease fire in #Gaza. He calls on Israel to stop killing Gaza's civilians, women and babies. Listen to excerpts of BBC interview (linked).

That's strong and valuable words, but the problem is that Macron doesn't have the same words in French and on French media…

The dataset https://doi.org/10.18715/IPGP.2023.ldbm60lm, linked to the article "Upper-plate Shortening and Mountain-building in the Context of Mantle-driven Oceanic Subduction", includes videos and photographs depicting the evolution in top and lateral views of the 5 analogue experiments.

In our new paper, Habel et al. 2023, we use analogue models to discuss the effect of mantle flow on upper-plate shortening, and #mountain building in Andean #subduction margin context. The paradigmatic #orogen type being the #Andes #Altiplano in front of the Nazca-South America plate boundary.

Storm 🌀 Ciarán approaching Brittany at nightfall 👇. Three departments in western France are on red alert, large part of the country in orange. Extreme winds 💨 forecasted.

Be cautious, stay safe ❤️ !

Reminder: the seminal article about the source of the 464BC #earthquake is this one:

Armijo et al. "A possible normal-fault rupture for the 464BC Sparta earthquake", Nature, 1991, https://doi.org/10.1038/351137a0

Today's reading 👇, some historical papers, with the idea to enrich our teaching in the field next year about the Sparta 464BC #earthquake

The Nobel Prize season starts pretty well:

Congrats to Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman !

A new paper by IPGP and OVPF researchers A. Lavayssière and L. Retailleau:

Capturing #Mayotte’s deep #magmatic plumbing system and its spatiotemporal evolution with #volcano-#tectonic #seismicity

With a beautiful evaluation of #earthquake location uncertainties
