Wie entsteht ein #Tsunami? Wie kann man sich schützen? Was machen eigentlich Tiere? Antworten zu diesen und vielen weiteren Fragen erhaltet ihr im neuen #Wissenspodcast #EricErforscht für Kinder & Jugendliche. ericerforscht.libsyn.com/eine-wand-aus-…

30 years since the 1996 Chimbote tsunami (Peru). On this anniversary, we’re launching the GTEM website — soon to be a practitioner-oriented hub for tsunami evacuation modeling resources + documentation. regidirides.github.io/gtem/ #Tsunami #Evacuation #DRR #Peru

Yesterday’s “Schnupperuni” (girlsday) at UniBonn was real fun! Hope that we were able to catch the girls’ interest for geosciences with a short rock tutorial and the simulation of viscous landslide behavior. #UniBonn #Schnupperuni #girlsday #experiment #landslide

The upcoming Sedimentology.Lunch-Talk will focus on “Coastal Erosion and Shore Platform Developement across Tectonic Gradients” – by Prof. Dr. Kevin Norton from Uni Tübingen. Registration dggv.de/bildungsangebo… #sedimentology #talks #research @DGGV_de

The final exams for this semester are in full swing. Good luck to all students! 🍀 #ExamWeek #exams #UniBonn #StudentLife

Quite a nice sample of Sahara dust deposited on my terrace during yesterday´s event #saharadust #eolian #aeolian #sampling #sediment

Safe the dates! #Sedimentology.Lunch Talks will be back in November with various topics, such as diagenesis, geochemical proxies, silicate weathering, cosmogenic nuclides, ... More info & registration: dggv.de/bildungsangebo… #sedimentology #talks #research #topics @DGGV_de

Today is my first official day as full #professor for #sedimentology at @UniBonn. It´s been a long way, but now I am super excited about all new tasks and opportunities, my own #researchgroup and all upcoming projects! #academia #HazardResearch

the California Geological Survey has prepared a survey to gather your observations from the M8.8 Kamchatka, Russia Tsunami If you have been able to make any observations of the tsunami or of the evidence left behind by tsunami, we want your information: survey123.arcgis.com/share/76979db3…

The upcoming Sedimentology.Lunch-Talk (July 10) will focus on “The Story of the North German Basin and Potentials for Today” – presented by Prof. Dr. Magdalena Scheck-Wenderoth from GFZ. dggv.de/bildungsangebo… #sedimentology #talks #research @DGGV_de #GFZ @GFZ_Potsdam

@Subsolum Yes, each sand layer is a tsunami unit. The topmost one is 2004. Details in: Medieval forewarning of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami in Thailand by Jankaew et. al 2008 nature.com/articles/natur…

@TsunamiSand Are each pedostratigraphic sequence of soil /sediment A (black ,topsoil) and C ( white sand sediment) representative if a Tsunami event?

Today, 20 years ago, the 2004 Indian Ocean #Tsunami happened. Let´s remember those who lost their lives in this #disaster, but also remind us how important #hazard related #research is in order to be better prepared for the next #event! #IOT #IOT2004 #IndianOceanTsunami2004

Today, we honor the lives lost and resilience of survivors of the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami, which claimed over 200,000 lives 20 years ago. A stark reminder of nature’s power and the need for preparedness. More about our work on tsunami preparedness 👉ow.ly/AMTc50UsClp
