Most of the #Mōkapu vents of the #Honolulu #Volcanics. Recent work suggests non-carbonatitic (possibly cryptic) #metasomatism in their petrogenesis based on incompatible trace element ratios. Cryptic metasomatism I hate as much as kale baklava 🥲. #geoscience #geology #hawaii #hawaiʻi #volcanology

We like fold-and-thrust belts, don't we? The Papuan Fold Belt, in Papua New Guinea, seen on Sentinel-1 radar data (18/2/2025), where the Darai Plateau is intersected by Mt. Bosavi. To the NE, the Strongly-Folded Belt, and the Imbricate Belt. #Geology #FridayFold #FoldFriday #RemoteSensing ⚒️🧪

Forest offset projects can now use dynamic baselines to measure, rather than model, impacts on carbon. This is a step forward, but it’s still impossible for 3rd party observers to confirm climate benefits because project location data isn’t public. carbonplan.org/blog/vm0045-...

USGS Folks can’t be at #LPSC2025 and someone hung up a shirt with a flower as a memorial of sorts. We’re already feeling the loss of their presence and a bunch of other members of the community who can’t be here for a myriad of reasons.
