Seasons change, and so do our passions. My climate anxiety? Yeah, it’s on the rise, like the global average temperature. So, Mae asks: My research field feels stagnant (or even dying), with limited opportunities, and I have developed new interests. How hard is it to change fields/direction after your PhD? Dear Mae, I mean this is kind of perfect for the wasteful spooky season. What could be scarie ...[Read More]

Teaching the next generation of scientists, engineers, and planners hydrology may sometimes feel like a chore, but it might be the most impactful thing we do! So, I think it is always worth taking a look to see if we can optimize our approaches. What follows are some ideas that have shaped my teaching strategies over the last decade. I don’t pretend to be an authority on this stuff, but I’ve curat ...[Read More]
How do earthquakes nucleate? How do they arrest? Can we predict or control them? How do fault zone structure and rheology influence rupture? What do earthquakes in the lab tell us? How does fluid injection modulate seismicity? The Institut des Etudes Scientifiques de Cargèse (IESC) premise in Corsica, France was abuzz with discussions about these and many other related questions this October. The ...[Read More]
Convening a session at academic conferences is no doubt time-consuming, but they are also the primary catalysts for establishing a research network and significantly boosting your academic profile. Particularly for Early Career Scientists (ECS), the idea of convening a session can be fearful and many worry that they don’t know how to do it or whether they can wrap up the session smoothly. The ECS ...[Read More]

Whether the first four robust candidates for the love of your (geological) life did not match your expectations (if you missed part one, check it here) or you are feeling polyamorous looking for some other options and perspectives, other bachelors/bachelorettes datable phases can be everything you have been looking for. Here are some other minerals used in geochronology, as if they were featured ...[Read More]
I am Krishnanand J, a graduate student in glaciology from IISER Pune, India. This is a story about my very first field trip to the Himalaya. Coming from a small village in Kerala, which is the southernmost state of India, going to the Himalaya is considered a big thing. It is like a camel visiting Antarctica. So below, I will take you along on an immersive journey, as I tell you about my first fie ...[Read More]
Knowledge gaps in our understanding of the Hydrological Cycle The water cycle continuously provides us with fresh water. A critical process in the water cycle is evapotranspiration (ET), meaning that water evaporates from the surface and transpires from plants into the atmosphere. ET plays a crucial role in climate stability and the regulation of global water resources, but it is one of the most ...[Read More]
