Quick recap from field suvey of yesterdays M5.8 earthquake in NV. no surface rupture observed after several transects across aftershock pattern.  Lack of surface cracking in epicentral area. Minor bank failures, lateral spread, and liquefaction features along Walker river.

Ha, looks like the airship hangar and airstrip are built right next to an active fault. Wonder what the fault setbacks for stealth balloons are 😂 #BlackSky #oops

I was diagnosed with cancer in April. Unfortunately, chemotherapy, radiation, and immunotherapy couldn’t tame this, and my medical team is now focused on keeping me comfortable while I spend the last chapter of my life with my partner, family, and friends. 1/4

For a long time geoscientists have been quoting M7.5 for the 1770 Haiti earthquake, but based on fairly cursory earlier analysis of mostly secondary sources. A new study based on detailed original sources sheds new light on this important event. 1/ pubs.geoscienceworld.org/ssa/bssa/artic…

Because we all use offset markers in active tectonics studies it is critical to understand what is controling their formation and preservation. Check out the new paper by N. Reitmann et al. about offsets along strike-slip faults pubs.geoscienceworld.org/gsa/geology/ar…
