Are you ready for another Guess the Gem? What mineral do you think this gem is? Hint: it gives its names to a form of luminescence. #GuessTheGem #GeoscienceTwitter

Scan anywhere you desire. With the #handheld GS-100G LiDAR, we captured some incredible #point clouds around a tree-filled park. As you move through the area, you’ll be amazed by the captivating details of every tree. Complete and precise. #geosun #lidar #Forestrysurveying

The sound of connecting to dial-up internet just emanated from a distant corner of the coworking space. All the millennials popped their heads up from their computers like a flock of prairie dogs being activated by a long-forgotten ancestral call.

Salty week on the publication front! Take a look at our #GSAToday paper on "Halokinetic induced topographic controls on sediment routing in salt-bearing basins" by @wilcoxgeologist et al. Great collaboration between @GeoscienceTexas and @timdooley shorturl.at/oz049

Brilliant models of how earthquakes are triggered at subduction zones via the interplay between friction and elastic solids - metal & springs - which are analogues for how the lithosphere responds to stress. Credit: Wakayama Museum, Japan.
