Hats off to the Royal Astronomical Society for tackling this issue. "Urgent action is needed to address an insidious and systemic #bullying problem within the world of #astronomy and #geophysics, a damning new report warns."
Happy birthday to Danish #seismologist Inge Lehmann (1888 – 1993) who demonstrated that the Earth's core is not a single molten sphere, but contained an inner solid core, in ‘36. She was a pioneer #womanInScience, a brilliant seismologist & lived to be 105.
As she first postulated, the #earth has roughly 3 equal concentric sections: mantle, liquid outer core & solid inner core. 🧵1/n
The most surprising revelation from NASA’s Curiosity Mars Rover — that methane is seeping from the surface of Gale Crater — has scientists scratching their heads.
I am Professor of #Geophysics at Universidade de São Paulo, Brazil, where I study the Earth using tiny disturbances in its gravity and magnetic fields, from global 🌎 to microscopic 🔬 scale.

Working on Antarctica (tectonics, ice sheet change, int. with ocean and atmosphere, inter disc. links). Focus on ground-based geophysics (esp. seismology) and compute. Professor of Geophysics at #UTAS#physics#comp_antarctic group, enabling/advocate for research, learning, #diversity in #stem.
Today is #FossilFriday & I got a reminder that last year this day my humans made #trilobite#cookies. It was for a colleague's #Phd defence pawty in the #geophysics department. The cookies were a huge success 😻😹
