Frosty day of fieldwork, moving one of the CATERAN seismometers so the solar panel doesn't get hit by golf balls...

8 broadband and 10 nodes deployed across the Highland Boundary Fault in the last 4 days for the CATERAN deployment - not bad for a time of year when there's only 7hr 40mins between 🌅 and 🌄. Temperatures ranged from -4C to 12C! Massive thanks to @seismodave.bsky.social, Iona, Mark, Mike, and Andy!

Starting off the Earth Physics, Structure, and Processes course for the MSc Geophysics students with thinking about where in the Solar System they'd like to send a mission and why

Fun morning of geohazard outreach with P5 kids at a primary in Arbroath this week - kids built 'earthquake' resilient buildings out of spaghetti and marshmallows, tested the viscosity of different (kitchen cupboard) 'lavas', and thought about where to build houses to protect them from tsunamis
