🚨New paper This work began with many fruitful discussions over COVID lockdowns. Our findings underscore the need for integrated multi-hazard-risk strategies to enhance urban resilience, especially in growing cities with dynamic exposure & vulnerability. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

@DaryonoBMKG @NERC_COMET @NERCscience Thank you Pak! 🙏 I hope you are enjoying your visit to the UK and you had some productive discussions at the BGS. I am very sorry I wasn't there to meet you

I guess we’ve known for centuries that certain sections of British society will tolerate the utmost horrors if they’re inflicted on those whose life is inconvenient to our strategic interests, but it’s heartbreaking to see it confirmed in such detail again and again

@JKSteinberger Love your final reply!

I was misled, you see.

Yesterday we welcomed Prof. Khairul Munadi, the Indonesian Education & Cultural Attaché, and members of the embassy team to the BGS. We discussed strengthening BGS–Indonesia scientific partnerships on geohazards, mineral resources and geothermal energy. Lots to follow up on!

@lgracewriter @BritGeoSurvey @iamhazelgibson Hi Lucy. It was wonderful to have you here. I'm glad you had a productive visit! Hope to see you again soon.

So many thought provoking ideas, thank you. A great day at @BritGeoSurvey, my mind is blown! I'll be back 🪨 🙏🏽 thank you @ekh_sci for your time. 🤞🏼🇮🇩 mypatchworkplanet.com/about/ via @iamhazelgibson

Sad times indeed. I'm still a big admirer of the folks at @SpaceX and all their incredible achievements. But sorry, your boss is totally mad. 😢
