We have three fully-funded positions in petrology/geochemistry (two PhD and one Postdoc) at the University of Bern. The goal of this project is to quantify the redox budget and element fluxes triggered by serpentinite dehydration during subduction. earthworks-jobs.com/geoscience/ber…

We’ve been watching @LavaBombsFilm with our residents we interviewed. Andrea’s buried home lies just across from the rental house we’re at in Las Manchas. We huddled together to see the film. We stopped. We started. We talked. We cried. We spoke. We listened. #fuerzalapalma

Have you seen the @LavaBombsFilm trailer? The La Palma eruption devastated the Canary Islands and changed the lives of so many… Such an important story to tell. @GeoTenerife See trailer here: youtu.be/hoo0QmO4FZg

Today we went into the #sea for aerial and underwater #drone surveys of the #lava deltas formed by the #Tajogaite #eruption with @drones4geology. We had to stay clear of the #exclusion zone to avoid any danger. #scicomm #geology #volcanology @GeoTenerife

🇬🇧Our hard hitting @geotenerife documentary LAVA BOMBS gears up for launch.  Trailer release tomorrow with info on film release dates and venues.

Looking at pumice fall deposits with @GeoIntern to map the smaller #tenerife eruptions from Cañadas #caldera! feat. @beccatanner_ as scale #volcanology #geology

Proud to have been the writer on this!

Slickensides visible on the sides of a block transported in the 1909 #Chinyero #lava flow which is 9km long #volcanology #geology #Tenerife

#Geology is fundemental in the flavour of #wine grapes everywhere, in #Tenerife this traditional @BodegasReveron #vinyard sits atop #lava flows and ash #winetasting #volcanology #wineoclock

Intricate structures within #basalt #lava tubes show #crystalisation under gravity after a period of extrusion, here in the Cañadas #caldera, #Tenerife #volcanology #geology

La Montaña Amarilla is a tuff cone, formed by #volcanic explosions mixing with water to create wet surges! The yellow colour comes from alteration to #palagonite #volcanology #tenerife #volcano @GeoIntern

Lava flows from 1704-1705. These are solidified remnants from the Arafo eruption in Tenerife! The lava flow was 9km long and destroyed around 70 buildings... @GeoTenerife #volcanoes #geology #Tenerife #lava tenerifeweekly.com/2022/02/03/317…

Inside a man-made pumice cave in #Tenerife. The unstable pumice is quarried out till they hit the more stable ignimbrite on top. The pumice from here is used as an insulating layer above the top #soil for #agriculture purposes. #geology #volcanology #scicomm @GeoTenerife

We are delighted to welcome our latest member, @Weardalelithium, to the association! Weardale Lithium is aiming to contribute to the UK’s #energytransition by seeking to sustainably produce lithium and generate #geothermal energy from underground geothermal waters in Durham.

With @GeoIntern identifying the #pumice fall and #ash flow deposit of La Caleta #ignimbrite which is a product of #caldera collapse #volcanology #Tenerife

Las Cañadas #caldera looks like something out of Star Trek! It's a result of thousands of years of #landslide and #volcano activity. #volcanology #geology #Tenerife

Yesterday the @GeoIntern programme ventured toward Mt Teide. I have had this top trump card in my phone case since I received my offer to study volcanology in the Canary Islands. I have finally got the photo I wanted. Although the ‘WOW! factor score of 65 seems a little low.

A day at the beach with @GeoTenerife! Tourists enjoy themselves, unaware, in the shadow of tens of extinct scoria cones! These are part of #Tenerife #rift system. Younger cones tend to be smaller due to less available magma; future #eruptions may be smaller #geology #volcanology

Just setting off to the airport to fly to Tenerife to join my fellow earth scientists as @GeoIntern with @GeoTenerife! Looking forward to meeting everybody and seeing the volcano 🌋
