New blog post highlighting a suite of Jupyter Notebooks to enable programmatic access to cloud-hosted USGS 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) #lidar data. Notebooks demonstrate how to use @pointcloudpipe to access & process data hosted by Amazon Open Data. opentopography.org/blog/new-… 1/2

If you want to support deep public engagement by (earthquake) scientists, consider subscribing to our Earthquake Insights blog - link in my bio. (No, we are not paid by anyone else; we left our faculty positions. We write this blog because we think it is important.) 1/
Replying to @Weather_West
"Surely someone else is funding this!" is a common refrain--everyone seems surprised that no one else is supporting deep public engagement by (climate) scientists in this way. But after a pretty exhaustive search, it just seems that's simply not the case in this moment.

UC Santa Cruz is very pleased to announce a search for two geophysics faculty positions this year. As highlighted in the job ad, we are particularly interested in expertise in seismology or geodesy and can entertain applicants at up to the Associate Professor level.

Replying to @ucdavis
@ucdavis Earth and Planetary Sciences is hiring for the Louise H. Kellogg Endowed Chair in Geophysics (associate and full level). Area of geophysics is very much open - outstanding scholar, excellent mentor, innovative teacher, leadership. See recruit.ucdavis.edu/JPF05891.

Why was the earthquake so large? In our recent paper in @ScienceMagazine, we revealed how the destructive Turkey earthquakes this year gradually ruptured and evolved in a multi-fault web, forming a domino-like cascading effect! Link: doi.org/10.1126/science.adi0…

Our latest @Nature paper shows the power of DAS. Using a 100km cable, we imaged four asperities breaking during a M6 event, whose image would otherwise be a blur. It is like having a new telescope, but for earthquakes! What if we have all the cables?! rdcu.be/dioaw

Go read our new paper in #SRL! We anticipate the uncertainty analysis used in this study (focused on California) will be widely applicable to other regions with a record of historical earthquake intensities such as Japan, Italy, etc.
In a new #SRL paper, scientists led by @madeleine_earth estimate magnitude from shaking intensity for earthquakes with known magnitudes. In this way, the team can assess the uncertainty of intensity-based magnitude. doi.org/10.1785/0220230030

Looking for an exiting PhD project dealing with analogue experiments, seismology, and image correlation, to look at fault segmentation and earthquake dynamics? Please look and apply for the PhD topic we offer in CY Univ. in collaboration with IPGP. Starting possibly next Fall

There’s a thing I notice. The BAJEDI papers that get the most press seem to be ones highlighting systematic/broad inequities. Papers highlighting possible solutions don’t seem to get as much press. It makes me think about how the journals and media is capitalizing in this space

Come check our new paper ✨. We relate surface deformation rates to the long-term evolution of a tectonic plate boundary (in Pakistan) using minimal modelling and extensive literature review. 📐📚🔓science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

I'll be giving a talk tomorrow at SSA on my work imaging the Garlock Fault Zone from the shallow subsurface to seismogenic depth with DAS. It's a collaborative effort with @ZhongwenZhan, @yanyang000, and Weiqiang Zhu. Come check it out if you're interested!
