Lewis Hunton: The Boy Who Read the Rocks
Stand on the site of the old Loftus Alum Works and you feel rather small. These 213-metre cliffs are not pretty. For centuries, workers burned shale and processed aluminium sulphate here, poisoning the ground so thoroughly that almost nothing grows. The place looks dead. It seems more of the remains of t ...

Gribdale Gate and the Edge of the Ice
A view from Cliff Rigg looking across to Gribdale Gate and Easby Moor, where the monument to Captain James Cook stands like a stubborn finger pointing at the sky. It is a landscape that seems quiet until you realise how much has happened here while human ...

Recent #geological analysis provides the strongest evidence to date that Stonehenge’s massive stones were transported by humans rather than glacial movement during the Ice Age, effectively debunking the long-standing "glacial transport theory."

What does Schrödinger's cat 🐱 have to do with the age of the #Earth?
Thanks to Schrödinger's equation, radiometric dating and quantum simulations became possible, allowing scientists to measure #geological time and explore Earth's deep interior. It has, in fact, helped build modern Earth #science.

Curtin University researchers have demonstrated a new way to uncover the ancient history of Australia’s landscapes, which could offer crucial insights into how our environment responds to #geological processes and climate change and even where deposits of valuable minerals may be found.

How does #phenotypic #diversity relate to #genomic #evolution over #geological time?
In this #openaccess research article, Yang et al. find that species diversification (SD) in the Fagales (which includes oaks, chestnuts, and walnuts) appears decoupled from both, highlighting the multidimensional nature of SD evolution.⌛️ https://doi.org/10.1111/jipb.70011

#FootpathFriday
I discovered this old, seaside walkway nestled in a small waterfront pocket park in Esquimalt, 20 years ago. The end of the walkway & rocky beach area has views of CFB Naden, which is beside the park. There's a fence/gate to block access to this concrete footpath now - I climbed around it. I've done many past photoshoots at this location with various models.#Esquimalt #Songhees #waterfront #VictoriaBC #YYJ #VancouverIsland #VanIsle #oceanside #PacificNorthwest #PNW #ocean #pathway #walkway #geological #DennistonPark #footpath #coastline #WorldInMyEyes #photography #PacificOcean

We talk a lot about #sea level rise due to #warming and ice melt. That it's not just based on models. We have a robust #geological record of ice melt events to talk about this with relative confidence*.

How did eastern #NorthAmerica form?
North America today is made of several different parts. The west are relatively young and mighty mountain ranges like Sierra Nevada and Rockies. In the middle is ancient heart of the continent, oldest and stablest rocks around. And in the east is the long coastal stretch of the eastern North American margin. Each of these has its own #geological history, but it is the story of the eastern bit that has recently come into sharper focus.

Lake Greenhow: A Forgotten Relic of the Ice Age
Yesterday’s post led me to glaciers, glacial lakes, and the like. At Botton Head, my imagination ran riot.
Difficult as it is to picture now, 10,000 years ago, a glacier covered the Tees Valley before me. The ice sheet, it is well-known, never quite managed to smother the Nor ...

Newtondale: A Gorge Too Big for Its Stream
North Dale sits at the top end of Newtondale, a gorge that stretches all the way to Pickering. Newtondale is an oddity, or so everyone says, because the little Pickering Beck, which now trickles through it, could never have gouged out such a deep, narrow valley. At its tightest points, the valley is only 500 met ...

We have these amazing karst canyons all over the island & on several surrounding gulf islands. Large karst networks of caves & canyons are found in Cowichan Valley, Comox Valley & all through the less populated North Island. Karst sites on Quadra Island & some islands in the Discovery Islands archipelago are being researched. Haida Gwaii has big karst formations network.
I find #geological #karst formations very fascinating. I enjoy exploring them when there's an opportunity to do so. I've found ancient old growth tree crystals in some of the karst formation forests here - they're magical, magnificent & hard to find if you're not looking hard in the right areas.

#China is home to around 200 #tiankeng, which are mostly distributed from the central #Shaanxi province down to the #GuangxiZhuang autonomous region in the southwest. Roughly 1/3 of the country consists of #karst — the highest proportion of overall surface area of any country in the world — compared with just under 1/5 in the United States.

📢New Publication Alert!
🔖'Reign of the Beast' by Adrian Desmond is out now!
🔎In the 1830s, decades before #Darwin published the 'Origin of Species', a museum of evolution flourished in #London. 'Reign of the Beast' pieces together the extraordinary story of this lost working-man's institution and its enigmatic owner, the wine merchant #WDSaull. Saull outraged polite #society by putting humanity’s #ape #ancestry on display.
He weaponized his #museum #fossils & empowered #artisans with knowledge of deep #geological time that undermined the #Creationist base of the #Anglican state. His geology museum called the biggest in Britain, housed over 20,000 fossils, including famous dinosaurs.
Now multi-award-winning author Adrian Desmond undertakes a thorough reading of #HomeOffice spy reports and subversive street prints to re-establish Saull's pivotal place at the intersection of the history of #geology, #atheism, #socialism, & #working-class #radicalism.

Scientists suggest that despite not officially entering the #Anthropocene, our impact on the planet will be etched in history. The diverse imprints left by #humans on #nature over a vast timeframe pose a challenge for #geological classification. The intricate web of influences we have exerted on the environment defies a singular starting point for this new #epoch.

#South #Africa's Oil Boom brings to the fore a groundbreaking revelation that could herald a new era of #prosperity or herald an #ecological crisis. In this in-depth #analysis, we unveil the truth behind South Africa's vast #oil #discovery, navigating through the seismic shifts it proposes for the nation's #economy and the looming #environmental concerns. As we dissect the intricate balance between economic ambitions and #ecological #responsibilities, prepare to be shocked by the revelations of potential exploitation by the West and the pivotal decisions facing South Africa. Will the allure of newfound wealth compromise the nation's environmental legacy, or can it navigate the path to sustainable prosperity?
Join us as we explore the delicate dynamics of African politics, the shadows of #colonial #history, and the global implications of this #geological discovery. Our narrative delves into the technical challenges and opportunities presented by the oil reserves, the strategic maneuvers of international relations, and the vital question of whether South Africa can prioritize both economic growth and environmental sustainability.
Discover the disturbing facts about the potential impact on marine life, the strategic involvement of global energy giants, and the ongoing debates between economic gains and environmental preservation. This video is a must-watch for those interested in the evolving geopolitical landscape and the future of energy independence in Africa.
