⚒️Why do some slabs flatten at 660 km while others sink into the lower mantle? 🤔 Our new work shows it comes down to the overriding plate, mantle viscosity, and 💫 the slab bending ratio 💫 Check it out here: 👉📄 agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...

Was recently told that gender imbalance in academia is not a thing anymore and yet it seems that the leaky pipeline keeps leaking - “women leave or consider leaving because of workplace climate more often than work-life balance” 👀
Women leave academia at higher rates than men at every career stage, and attrition is especially high among three groups: tenured faculty, women in non-STEM fields, and women employed at less prestigious institutions, a #ScienceAdvances analysis finds.
Gender and retention patterns among U.S. faculty
Women faculty are more likely to leave their jobs than men, most often due to workplace climate, rather than work-life balance.

How important is continental heterogeneity for subduction dynamics & overriding plate topography?🤔 Pretty important as it turns out!👀 Check out our NEW PAPER to find out more: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Some gems from our student haikus on sustainable mining from our 4th year course Minerals, Metal and Materials for a Sustainable Future 😍 Definitely feeling the “pure exhausted like” vibe😅

As a geodynamicist I can confirm that this totally legit, especially the ancient nameless evil 2 levels up from the magma chamber!😍

Very nice to host @geoniette.bsky.social at EarthByte as part of our Sydney Uni 🤝 Glasgow Uni Ignition Grant on how variations in subduction angle affect volcanism and porphyry copper formation. A great start the year with lots of productive conversations and collaborations!
