🔭Slope lineae on Mercury are preferentially oriented towards the equator on the sun-facing slopes of impact craters, suggesting they form through volatile release due to insolation.

Uno studio guidato da @unibe.ch e dall’Inaf ha utilizzato algoritmi di deep learning per mappare oltre 400 striature luminose (lineae) sulla superficie di #Mercurio analizzando 100mila immagini della sonda Messenger della Nasa.

SI PUÓ FARE
Si puó uscire dalla trappola bibliometrica che sta distruggendo la ricerca scientifica.
Il CNRS francese, per esempio, ha cominciato con il chiudere gli abbonamenti ai principali database commerciali usati per la valutazione bibliometrica.

Our npj Natural Hazards @natureportfolio.nature.com study explores how long-term seismic coupling affects fault-based hazard models. Only ~60% of tectonic slip in Italy’s central Apennines is released seismically—ignoring this can bias #SeismicHazard estimates.

US President Donald Trump’s proposed budget for fiscal year 2026 calls for unprecedented cuts to scientific agencies that, if enacted, would deal a devastating blow to US science, policy specialists say.

If you are asking what kind of science we can afford, you've got it wrong. It's the other way round: What kind of ignorance & data gaps do we want to accept? Read how political intervention in the US jeopardises science & data by @susannebuiter.bsky.social 👇

A journal asked me to review a paper, due March 12. Today, I received this email from the editor. I’m still new to #peer #review, but I don’t think this behavior is appropriate, especially since I’d already started my review. For those with more experience, is this kind of thing ok?

What does an earthquake look like beneath your feet? This visualization shows seismic waves in action.
We’re studying how such visuals improve public communication after major earthquakes. We'd love your input! Please take our short survey & share: ww3.unipark.de/uc/SIOseismi...

Dr. Don Turcotte passed away yesterday. He was 92 years old.
he was surrounded by family. His granddaughter had wanted to read something to Don in the hospital so his son suggested “Geodynamics” - she was reading to him in his final moments. ⚒️

With a team of 241 researchers, we surveyed 71,922 people in 68 countries, providing the largest dataset on trust in scientists post-pandemic 👇🧵https://www.nature.com/articles/s41562-024-02090-5
Field-based fault studies have still a lot to tell us, if we look carefully!
In our new Scientific Reports paper (OA) we present a multitechnique and multiscalar approach to untangle the long-term spatio-temporal-thermal evolution of complex, long-lived faults.
