@Erikvdwiel @HotspotTrack @UUGeo @vanHinsbergen Gefeliciteerd!!

Last Wednesday I successfully defended my PhD thesis at @UUGeo #PhDone 😀🎓. I want to thank my promotors @vanHinsbergen, Cedric and Wim for supporting me through these years. I’ve had the most amazing day celebrating this milestone with so many friends, colleagues and family!

Off to Vienna for #egu24 ! Many ECS members of our Njord family are giving presentations on glacier dynamics, molecular dynamics modelling of fractures in basalts, fracture experiments, and microstructures on fault rocks from the lower-crust. Check them out and see you in Vienna!

@micROCKScopica @glgysteve The real challenge is finding kyanite that's not kinked

@richardmpalin @thegeojesse @manenbu I have an invite code available if you want to join

@thegeojesse @manenbu Interesting, it just takes a lot of activation energy to move to a new site 😑

Just joined the other clear skies app. Same name. 🌤️

@jolyonralph @taynappe Wish I could agree

📢📢🚨🚨Hello fellow researchers, we are recruiting again ⁦@NjordUiO⁩! 👇👇 Join us for a PhD in Rock Deformation Processes to better understand the origin of the enigmatic lower-crustal earthquakes, it will be fun! 🔬⛰️⛏️📒📷💻🎥 jobbnorge.no/en/available-j…

@glgysteve Rather crappy boring minerals than opal!

Get ready to be out-voted by crappy boring minerals @HugoLantman !!

🚨 New JGR paper for your summer weekend reading enjoyment where we investigated micro- and nano-porosity in lower-crustal faults to derive the mechanisms that generate and rework porosity during the earthquake cycle agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.102…

If you want to hear more about a female bad-ass geologist 🔨🪨from the 1910’s, hard rock and Neolithic axes 🪓 stories around today’s 🚴‍♀️ TDFF stage ⬇️ Really glad to be part of this awesome @geotdf project! @UMR_Geo_Ocean @IUEM_Brest

@eatingbooks1 @brenhinkeller @kristina_dunkel Agreed! There is some deformation but probably not enough to explain this rounding.

Things got a bit igneous today! The largest K-feldspar I've seen in a long time, another feldspar with visible zoning, and mafic enclaves with skeletal scapolite (right @kristina_dunkel?)

Last day of fieldwork in Kråkeneset today full of shear zones, sheared dikes, and great weather! Fantastic!

@glgysteve @sheared_sash Lots of umbrella action

One of the best places in Norway. Felt like a holiday today under a clear sky and the heat! Also we tickled the rocks with chisels so that’s what made it a good day 😊 #gabbro #shearzone #fieldwork #geology

Cobble of the day: folds and garnets!

Spent the last few days doing field work in Holsnøy looking at #eclogites and transferring to Kråkeneset today. On the way a quick stop at the famous Isdal shear zone!

@thegeojesse It took a bit of climbing across the boulders 😅

The Verpeneset eclogite locality never disappoints. This time I found a massive quartz-kyanite-phengite vein with a thick rim of omphacite.

@sheared_sash @glgysteve @MicroLuca @kristina_dunkel Such a good outcrop

These garnet-orthopyroxene corona structures in the granulites of Holsnøy are already stunning by themselves, but they've also undergone spectacular deformation!

@JannekedeLaat @dias_geophysics Congratulations!!
