If anyone is installing Pyrolite (the excellent python-based geochemical data tool), it currently doesn't install with Python 3.13 and above due to a MatPlotLib compatibility issue. If you're using a managed virtual environment (such as uv), it installs fine with Python 3.12:
% uv init --python 3.12.13
% uv add pyrolite -

Congratulations to Dr. Jessica Salas Navarro who successfully defended her Ph.D. thesis, "Advancing Volcanic Gas Monitoring to Unravel Eruption Processes: Insights from Rincón de la Vieja Volcano, Costa Rica" (supervisors John Stix (McGill Univ.) and Maarten de Moor (OVSICORI, Costa Rica).
They monitored summit plume gas compositions, remotely-sensed total SO2, and seismic/infrasound signals.

Pierre Lanari (Univ. Lausanne), a Mineralogical Society of America @mineralsocamerica.bsky.social Distinguished Lecturer, presented advancements in constraining the rates of metamorphic reactions, enabled by clever application of element mapping, diffusion modelling and development of freely available software.
A beautifully illustrated, clearly explained talk!

Lew Ashwal of U. Witwatersrand died this week. Over decades, his scholarship helped shape modern thinking on magmatic processes and global crustal evolution (from Grant Bybee).
I remember Lew very patiently helping a young geochemist (myself) understand why mountains made of anorthosite were such a difficult and interesting problem to solve.

@jeridansky For a Thursday six list, I would put Nina Simone's 'Feeling Good' near the top!

MSA mailing list relayed the news that Joe Smyth of the University of Colorado at Boulder has died.
From a remembrance by G. Diego Gatta & Fabrizio Nestola:
Joe was among the founders of the field of mineral physics. He predicted that the structure of wadsleyite would incorporate hydrogen through point defects in quantities sufficient to reach oceanic volumes of H₂O, with implications for the history of water and plate tectonics on Earth.
