In celebration of pride month, I give you: The gender nonconformity!

I am proud to be a trans geologist, and I celebrate each and every one of my queer peers. Happy pride!

The eruptions at Ruang in Indonesia have clearly coated the entire island with ash. Sentinel-2 images from 4/12 and 4/27 so the island going from mostly green to mostly grey. Could be ash fall or from pyroclastic flows, likely the former.

At a press conference in Vancouver today, the USGS' Don Mullineaux said that something will happen with the north side bulge.

Problem: He and his colleagues don't know just what will unfold.
