Himalayan Tectonics in the Driver’s Seat, Not Climate?

by P. Zeitler 15 September 20213 May 2022

Earth’s oscillating climate is a natural guess to explain cyclic patterns in erosion, but new sediment data suggests that cyclicity may emerge from tectonic processes adding material to the Himalaya.

Good, Soon, and Cheap – Earthquake Early Warning by Smartphone

by P. Zeitler 8 July 202117 November 2021

Fixed smartphone networks can provide robust early warning of earthquakes at far lower costs than traditional scientific arrays, which is an important consideration for regions with limited resources.

Going Down: How Do Cities Carry That Weight?

by P. Zeitler 14 January 202114 January 2022

Calculations show that the added weight of growing cities can lead to tens of millimeters of subsidence, an effect that needs to be considered for coastal cities under threat by sea-level rise.
