Hey, that’s an article about our InSight observers program in that table of contents! Congrats to @spacequakes.bsky.social on that and thanks to all of our InSight Seers who were a great part of our science team meetings in the last couple of years of the InSight mission.

A reminder that if you’re in London this afternoon, I’ll be presenting the Royal Astronomical Society’s Harold Jeffreys Lecture at 4pm. 2D dino thinks it will be pretty interesting!

3D Enceladus paper out now in JGR Planets (OA): doi.org/10.1029/2024...

Join us as we consider how Enceladus' 3D ice shell could affect body wave seismology! 🧪⚒️🪐🔭

This constitutes the last ~18 months of my PhD research with @jessicairving.bsky.social and I think our results are very cool indeed.
Seismic Wavefield Modeling of Enceladus: Challenges and Opportunities Presented by a 3D Ice Shell
We describe the effects of 3D ice shell thickness and 2D surface temperature on seismic phases transiting each layer of Enceladus Deviations from 1D ice structure can cause travel time difference...

Half way through #AGU24 and looking for something a bit different? How about some Martian seismology? In the planetary seismology session on Thursday morning you can hear Ved Lekic talk about how we read seismograms from the biggest event detected on the red planet agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/me...

Hello Geosky ⚒️! If you could recommend a book or website to a newly interested young person - that might give them a good idea of how great geology is - what might you suggest?

Can anyone remind me the correct order for submitting to
EarthArXiv and Geophys. J. Int.? We've done this before, but I don't remember the details! Can we upload the prepreint after submission, or must it be before?

Does anyone know about any work on the language surrounding radioactive processes? This morning I talked about "Parent isotopes decaying" and in a year group of >100 there will be students who have been bereved and who hear about "a sample losing parent isotopes" who are taken back to family loss.

Dreaming about realms beyond the terrestrial planets: did you ever wonder what we could do with seismology on Enceladus? Kat Dapre's first paper is out, and it does just that! We're interested in how seismology might let us distinguish what's going on beneath the icy exterior. Open access science

Enceladus is an astrobiologically compelling target for scientific study and is predicted to have high seismic activity for its size, particularly at …

How can we map anomalies on the core-mantle boundary nearly 3000 km deep?
@CarlMartin_

Help please science friends: I'm trying to work out which vaguely geophysics-y online seminar series are running this autumn. I have Earthscope, RockyWorlds Discussion, CIG, Rifts+Rifted Margins and Landscapes Live. What am I missing?

New in neat planetary seismology: fifty-year-old seismic records contained the signals of the Apollo 17 lunar module warming and cooling at sunrise and sunset. Congrats to the trio of authors! Imagine what we'll be able to hear with new instruments on the Moon.

Hello! I'm a seismologist, and you'll mostly hear me talking about what's going on inside the Earth/Mars/other planetary bodies, but also about other parts of being a scientist/academic. I work at the University of Bristol, so there may occasionally be pictures of hot air balloons.
