June 27 is National PTSD Awareness Day. As someone who continues to work through their own PTSD, it is important to me to be a resource for others who might be struggling. First Responders are exposed to traumatic situations and susceptible to PTSD, but so are people working in natural hazards.

#IAVCEI #IAVCEI2025 #IAVCEI25 schedule for #TeamInfrasound (comment if I forgot one and I will add it and repost!) seismic/acoustics session is 2.1: Volcano seismology and acoustics: new approaches in monitoring, modelling and interpretation on Thursday and Friday e5k.github.io/IAVCEI-SA202...

Hey #teamInfrasound hope to see some of you at #IAVCEI next week! I am putting together a schedule of infrasound talks (we also have a seismo-acoustic session!) and I am bringing stickers!

Nate Hubert of FEMA is missing in or around Missouri. His Hertz rental car is a Nissan Versa; color silver or light metallic blue; Plate: PZC 398 (uncertain if the plate is from MO KS or OK) Please contact the Cape Girardeau, MO Police Department with any information: 573-339-6621

If anyone is looking for a summer student project geophysics/volcanology I have a fun one! It involves MSH, eyewitness stories, and digitizing maps. Let me know if anyone is interested skills: - geo referencing - digitization - data categorization - comparison of data sets

It's #Murderbot Thursday! www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjVJ...

On this day in 1980, the Dead were playing a monster Scarlet> Fire in Portland, Oregon, when Mount St. Helens erupted just 60 miles north. While the band went through an outrageous rendition of Fire on the Mountain, a thick coating of ash descended on the scene. gratefuldeadoftheday.com/06-12-1980

We're looking for volcano researchers who use drones to fill out a short(ish) survey on typical field practices and use of UAS. We'll present some preliminary results at IAVCEI in Geneva @iavcei.bsky.social next month. Survey here: forms.gle/TWLt2qq1XLZz... Thank you!!!

Pyroclastic flows at Etna have been confirmed by INGV ⚒️🌋

Flujo piroclástico emitido por el Etna esta mañana de ingvvulcani

First paroxysmal eruptive episode at #Etna's Southeast Crater since 18 months, on the morning of 2 June 2025. Collapse of the northeast flank of the crater generated a spectacular (but harmless) pyroclastic flow down the upper side of the mountain. (1/2)

Mount Etna erupts TODAY, June 2, 2025, unleashing lava fountains and a rare pyroclastic flow near Catania, Sicily! Tourists scramble to safety as ash plumes hit 6,400m, darkening the sky. No towns at risk, but Catania’s airport may close. Etna’s fury stuns the world!

I can’t stop watching these videos of Mount Etna

#Etna

Mount Etna produced a spectacularly explosive eruption Monday, sending a ripple of reddish clouds down from the southeast summit of Europe's highest active volcano.

"Geology now needs to resume its crown jewel role because the understanding and care of our planet is becoming humanity’s most urgent task." -Walter Alvarez, in Geology: The Once and Future Crown Jewel of Science?

SPEECHLESS BEFORE / AFTER #BLATTEN The magnitude of destruction after the 3:24 pm collapse of Birch Glacier is immense! 😱 All the forest has been razed and the ice/wood/debris dammed the Lonza river 🌊 Some buildings of Blatten are buried 🏠 📷 Pomona

⚒️ 🧪 Two weeks ago, a video appeared showing slip in the Myanmar earthquake - the first time this has ever been recorded on video. What can we learn from it? We deep-dive the science. earthquakeinsights.substack.com/p/remarkable...

On Memorial day I think it is important not only to remember those who have given their lives with physical wounds but also with psychological ones. We continue to fail out service members who have brought the fight home with them. If you need support r/PTSD is a wonderful place

It’s Mary Anning’s birthday, so time to share @katebeaton.bsky.social’s brilliant cartoon again.

Want your very own #infrasound sticker? Come find me at IAVCEI I will have more of these ones: Side note: any more sticker ideas for #teaminfrasound? I can make more for #AGU25

The world of sound is fascinating I think I might be watching this a few times....#teaminfrasound

"The Mountain is out!" What is the first mountain that popped into your mind?

Happy #MSH45 day to everyone! I would like to take this opportunity to ask around if anyone has an old copy of the OMSI "did you hear it?" survey for the May 18th eruption? (yes I have contacted them directly) #mtsthelens #MSH #OMSI #PNW

Today (in the US) is it May 18, and 45 years since the 1980 eruption of Lawetlat'la (Mt St Helens). May 18th has always been a special day for me since this eruption was one of my first obsessions as a kid. This year it is a little sad.

This is a photo of the surface rupture we saw in the webcam footage of the Myanmar #earthquake. The webcam was positioned on the opposite side behind the gate. Source is the YouTube channel that also posted the footage. 🧪⚒️ youtube.com/@sagaingeart...

This loop of the surface rupture is absolutely mesmerizing. I’ve spent the entire week so far watching the whole video repeatedly, and each time I discover something new. ⚒️ 🧪

hey #TeamInfrasound do you have a student looking for a postdoc? Check out this one on lahar monitoring and modelling! my.corehr.com/pls/ulivrecr...

NOAA's National Tsunami Hazard Mitigation Program, which funds EVERY state and territory tsunami program in the United States, costs tax payers just $0.4 per year.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

Take a deep breath and look at these otters relaxing. You probably need it.
