The eruption after thousand of years of #HayliGubbi #volcano in #Ethiopia.
According to analyses, part of the eruptive column from the eruption may have reached an altitude between 18 and 20 km.
The #Copernicus #Sentinel5p image on Nov. 23 shows the big plume moving eastward.

Every year my advisor’s research group (spanning 30+ years of students & postdocs) meets up for lunch at the @agu.org Fall Meeting.

Usually half of us make it, but this year? From academia, government, private sector—turns out, no one’s going 😱

Anyone else seeing this trend?

Let's add the stories from the research vessels, field stations and field trips..
In honor of Larry Summers, I asked the female members of my college class (1987) to say if they had any experiences with sexual harassment by teachers/professors, back when this was tolerated as, I dunno, the cost of attending college, and OH MY GOD.

These turquoise swirls are #Melissa’s sediment plumes—fine carbonate sands lifted from the shallow shelf and pulled into spiraling eddies. Their sharp gradients show strong shear and mixing. Within days the pattern fades as particles settle and dilution breaks the structure.🌀🟢🔵

I first heard rumours about this in September.

We're currently without one of our most powerful tools for communicating with spacecraft in deep space, and it's not clear when we'll get it back.

One of the largest antennas in NASA’s Deep Space Network was damaged in September and may be out of service for an extended period, further straining the system.
