I am flabbergasted that so many Earth Sci dpts now want hire for econ geol when they have replaced all the retiring petrologists, structural geologists, sedimentologists, field-rock-lookers of all flavors with just one "solid earth history and materials" for which they hired numerical modeler

Very nice Robin! Where exactly from the Monte Rosa? 😍

Fluid-mediated transition from dynamic rupturing to aseismic slip at the base of the seismogenic continental crust Chemo-mechanical fluid-rock interactions are critical in controlling the frictional-viscous transition in the continental crust and the competition be…

From dynamic ruptures to aseismic slip - our new EPSL paper explores how H2O+CO2 fluids affect microstructure, slip rates, and timing of deformation in crustal fault zones. Check it out! (OA)

Brittle? Ductile? Brittle-ductile? If you are interested in why rocks deform the way they do, consider
submitting an abstract to our session at #EGU25!
The deadline to apply for travel support is on December 2nd!

For my first #thinsectionthursday here, check out these nice deformation bands in quartz decorated by tiny fluid inclusions!
