The 2024 William Smith Fund is awarded to Dr Luke Wedmore.
A risk analyst at @Verisk, @lukewedmore has received the William Smith Fund for his excellence in contributions to applied and economic aspects of geoscience.
Our warmest congratulations Luke!

Delighted to see this published. Was a true team effort including a great masters student. And possibly my favourite ever figure/piece of analysis (check out figure 9!!)

5 years later, but we finally have a paper to show for our Uganda fieldwork 😅 Lots of cool stuff about how magmatism can rapidly change fault networks in continental rifts 👇👇👇 #ack0001" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Fantastic day 1 of the Southern East Africa Rift workshop in Blantyre, Malawi. 56 earth scientists from 14 countries and 4 continents (plus New Zealand!), discussing and debating mechanisms of continental breakup in east Africa. #sEARSworkshop2023 #nsffunded @nau_ses

Our new probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) for Malawi has just been published #OpenAccess in @RAS_Journals #GJI Our results imply significant changes to previous seismic hazard maps in Malawi, and underly the importance of using geologic and geodetic data in PSHA🧵1/6

Published in #GJI Geophysical Journal International: "Fault-based probabilistic seismic hazard analysis in regions with low strain rates and a thick seismogenic layer: a case study from Malawi", Williams et al. This is Fig. 1: to read the paper visit academic.oup.com/gji/article/23…

@JudithGeology Put the rails on rails? Like they had with the pipeline across the Danali Fault.

Railroads cannot safely run in the aftermath of an earthquake - something we've seen time and time again.
California is currently building a new high-speed rail. How can these systems be insulated from the effects of earthquakes?

And stay tuned for how we use this model in a new probabilistic seismic hazard analysis for Malawi! 4/4

The Malawi Seismogenic Source Model has been developed through a great team featuring
@LukeWedmore @fracturedfola @djshillington @Rafiki_PN @hassan_mdala @JulietBiggs @akefagereng @maxjwerner (and many others not on Twitter!) and supported by the @PREPARE_Africa project 2/4

Before everyone leaves Twitter, check out our new model for estimating the magnitude and frequency of #earthquakes along Malawi's active faults👇. Includes some neat comparisons between fault slip rates measured over 75 ka and when inferred from geodesy🧐 1/4

@HannahSus I would highly recommend crown prince squashes - easily the tastiest and most delicious (and v easy to grow!)

The UK might not have decorative guord season but they can grow plenty of tasty squashes.

@faulty_Jack @OtagoGeology @AllBlacks I presume you spent the whole time persuading them to join @BristolBears

Not your average morning coffee break @OtagoGeology when some members of the @AllBlacks happen to drop in 😅
