Have just realised that #academics can use @ORCID_Org to
#verify themselves.
Just include your full mastodon link (like this: https://mas.to/@marekmcgann) in the "Websites and Social Links" section in ORCID, then include link to your ORCID record in your Mastodon profile.
Hurray for distributed digital identities!

The absolute BEST thing about Mastodon? No DMs… ☠️

Hello! As an #introduction to me, I am a #geologist who studies #topography and how it reflects active #tectonics with a special focus on bedrock #rivers.
I am passionate about #openaccess publishing and #opensource software development for geoscientists. I'm looking to connect with other twitter refugees and new folks as well!

Early reports from multiple agencies indicate a shallow #earthquake occurred in #Italy, M5.5-6.0, widely felt. Approximate location is shown on a #tectonic map from Trippetta et al. 2019 with a yellow blob.

Magnitude 5.7 #earthquake in Adriatic Sea, East of Central #Italy about 15 minutes ago (2022-11-09 06:07:26) Data from station MN.CUC (Castrocucco, Italy) courtesy of INGV, Italy (https://www.emsc-csem.org/Earthquake/earthquake.php?id=1187048#scientific)
@henry yes!
i have been using hashtags like #earthquake and #EarthquakeReport
it seems like they may need to propagate which seems to take some time... but others have seen my toots where i used those tags and they are on a different server.
tho i am still on my steep learning curve!

Tuesday update on the #mastodon growth. 135k (!!) users join yesterday. Also, I'm zooming out the plot to see the evolution in the number of new users through the last year. I'm going to need a logarithm scale pretty soon 😎

I love the graphic on the cover of this 1977 Bulletin from the Oregon Dept. of #Geology on North American #Ophiolites.
#EarthquakeReport for the M 7.6 (likely) subduction zone #Earthquake in #Mexico on 19 Sept 2022 #TootToot #toot
catching up on reports that happened after my website went down
generated 0.6-1.7m wave height #Tsunami
probably triggered landslides/induced liquefaction

Hi! I’m an environmental geoscientist and educator who believes passionately that meaningful place-based geoscience education can change the world.
I share about science, education, equity and my family. #Introduction #Geoscience #Science
@paleoquake hi Paula!!!!!!! Toot Toot!
#EarthquakeReport for M 6.9 #Earthquake in Taiwan on 18 September 2022
there was lots of damage and some casualties :-(
landslides and liquefaction models show that there was a high likelihood for these.

i am filling in some #EarthquakeReport #Toots as I just got my website back up and running after almost two months of arduous work (steep learning curve getting web services set up on a robust server)
Greetings tooters!
this account is for Dr. Jason "Jay" R. Patton (aka EarthJay) and I march for science. #hashtag #Introduction #MastodonIntroduction
His main education/outreach effort is voluntarily writing up #EarthquakeReport posts on earthjay.com. These are for #earthquake and #tsunami events of interest, sorted in different ways; sorted by year here: https://earthjay.com/?page_id=3220
they are an engineering geologist (PG license 9758) who serves the public while at the California Geological Survey, Seismic Hazards and Tsunami programs. https://www.conservation.ca.gov/cgs/
he has been studying the tectonics of the Cascadia subduction zone (a convergent plate boundary fault system) for over 25 years (MS thesis at cal poly humboldt, dept geology). he is an adjunct professor at this dept. https://geology.humboldt.edu/
they studied marine sedimentary records (submarine landslide deposits called turbidites) of earthquakes offshore of Sumatra/Cascadia for my marine geology & geophysics PhD at oregon state university. https://ceoas.oregonstate.edu/

Ever seen a headline about #volcano smoke? The grey plume that rises from a volcano isn't smoke at all, it's volcanic ash (yeah I know, the confusing term doesn't help). It's made up of pulverized rock, crystals, glass, and gases, & produces different dangers to smoke.
It's also not at all fluffy like movies like to show.
You can learn more about it and how to protect yourself here: http://inthecompanyofvolcanoes.blogspot.com/2019/05/volcanic-ash-is-not-fluffy-volcanoes.html
