Thrilled to see Aberdeen ranked 1st in the UK for Earth Sciences and for Human Geography, and 1st in Scotland for Forensic and Archaeological Sciences based on positive responses in the NSS. A remarkable testament to our amazing students and staff! abdn.ac.uk/news/23346/

Had a hectic June, first presenting a poster on the work I've been doing in NE England at the EAGE Annual Conference, and then doing a talk on the same work at @IAS_Aberdeen! Honoured and privileged to have the opportunity to present my work at these two prestigious conferences.

Excellent weekend showcasing #earthquakes, #rocks & #fossils at the @TechFestNews Activity Weekend @RobertGordonUni. Over 3500 people visited in 2 days! Inspirational work by @ATBrasier @synrif @sophiakibaker, Dan Pratt, Alex O'Donnell @abdngeology @aberdeenuni #outreach

When #continents decide to drift, It’s #geodynamic #rift! Simulating #tectonic plates that pull apart, @sasbrune and @DerekNeuharth make it an art. 🌍✨👨‍💻👨‍💻 *Watch it play ➡ s-ink.org/continental-ri…

BGS has released the first digital version of the UK legacy #geothermal catalogue of subsurface temperature measurements, rock thermal conductivity measurements and heat flow calculations. For more information please visit: bgs.ac.uk/news/uk-legacy…

St. Andrews ✅ Thank you @TSG_since1970 for the opportunity to present my work at the annual meeting ♥️

I hope the prime minister is aware that salaries of postdoctoral researchers have reached such a low level in this country that this law would make it impossible for UK scientists to employ international experts It would be a huge own goal!

The salary for postdoctoral scientists is £36k. Science is global - if the UK is going to be 'the best country for science in the world', we need to be able to recruit the best scientists. Now, we might not be able to - only British scientists can apply.

Are looking for a PhD project and are interested in marine geology, geomophology and sediment mobility, all that in the context of energy transition? Look no further! findaphd.com/phds/project/q… @Seismic_Newts

We had a great day of science at the annual #GeoNetZero CDT conference with talks and posters from the @abdngeology PhDs on understanding the subsurface for applications including geothermal, CCS and hydrogen storage.

Not long to go until our Postgraduate Showcase Event! Join us at @UniversityLeeds this Wednesday at 18:00 to hear about new research on volcanic air pollution, carbon capture and storage, deep-water and delta fans systems and more! Register for free now! yorksgeolsoc.org.uk/events-list/po…

Postgraduate showcase speaker 6: Rifky Wijanarko (@synrif), University of Aberdeen (@abdngeology) Basin Transection in the Vale of Pickering, North Yorkshire

Hi everyone! I'm very excited to present my PhD research at the @yorksgeolsoc Postgraduate Showcase, hosted by @UniversityLeeds 😊

Visa fees & NHS surcharges are *already* massively impacting international postdocs/PhDs (who de facto take a pay cut rltv to UK nationals)... this is going to have a really really bad impact on UK academia

BREAKING: the White Cliffs of Dover have been illuminated with the UK 'warming stripes' for #ShowYourStripes day! These stripes represent the UK average temperature from 1884 to 2022 with blue colours for colder years and red colours for hotter years. ShowYourStripes.info

Congratulations to @NicRouse5, @PaulaLDuncan, @synrif & @bfkazmi for winning the 3 Minute Thesis and Images of Research Competitions at Founders' Day! 🏆 We had an enlightening blast with their incredibly condensed research presentations and images @UoAGeosciences @AbdnDivinity

@hamzah____ @aberdeenuni Thanks man! Couldn't have done it without ya :))

@synrif @aberdeenuni 2nd place! That’s amazing man

Delighted (and honestly surprised) that my digital collage came 2nd in @aberdeenuni 's Images of Research Competition, especially after seeing everyone else's *AMAZING* submissions! Many thanks to @hamzah____ for his valuable advice and feedback ❤️

Today marks 17 years since the Lumpur Lapindo mud volcano was caused by gas drilling. It has been erupting continuously ever since. The world's worst mud volcano disaster permanently displaced 40000 people, buried 7 km2 of a city and is a massive greenhouse gas emitter. Thread.

If engaging people of all backgrounds with science is 'woke', then we've been 'woke' for 200 years, and we're not planning on stopping now. rigb.org/explore-scienc…
