New paper today in @science.org focused on unraveling the chain of events that led to the 2023 Teesta disaster, which resulted in about 130 people either dead or missing in Sikkim, India. Short thread to follow. 🧪⚒️ doi.org/10.1126/scie...

A M5.6 earthquake struck southern Iran earlier today, causing dozens of injuries and damaging hundreds of homes.
This was an unusual earthquake: it occurred on a nearly horizontal fault. But while earthquakes like this are rare, this hazardous fault is well known to geologists!

Bluesky debut—let’s shake things up (pun intended)! 🌍💥
Today’s M5.6 EQ in SW Iran highlights hazards of sub-horizontal detachment faults, introduced in studies like Barnhart et al. (2018).
Fathian et al. (2021) show EQs along both mid-crustal décollement and upper crustal detachment in Zagros.
