Seismology
Ambient seismic noise and the quest for groundwater
Groundwater is water stored within permeable geological formations, and nearly a third of Earth’s freshwater supply comes from this source (a). In Africa, the overwhelming majority of distributable freshwater is contained in groundwater, and in the EU, 75% of the population relies on groundwater (b). This dependence on groundwater is steadily rising. As humanity …[Read More]

Imaging volcanic perturbations induced by large earthquakes
In a study recently published in Nature Communications [1], an international team led by researchers from the Institut de physique du globe de Paris (IPGP) has sought to better understand how the 2011 Tohoku-Oki mega-earthquake in Japan disrupted volcanic regions, by monitoring the seismic anisotropy in these regions before and after the earthquake. What …[Read More]
Hackathon: when ideas happen
You live in a developing country and wish for access to safe drinking water [1]. Or, you are at the supermarket and want to jump the endless line at the checkout [2]. Maybe you are a business woman and want to confidently represent yourself as the professional you are [3]. Whether it be inspired …[Read More]
Hackathon in Zurich – ETH Team
A colleague, external partners and I organized a hackathon on permafrost which took place from 28/11/2019 to 01/12/2019. We tried not to follow the traditional competition-like hackathon approach, but wanted to foster interdisciplinary knowledge exchange and collaboration through working jointly on a predefined dataset. We targeted to bring together computer and environmental scientists. …[Read More]
Hackathon in Vienna – IMGW Team
The whole idea of a Hackathon in Science came to me a couple of years ago, when I first read the AgileScientific blog written by Matt Hall. I figured that such an event is perhaps the most optimal way to generate and develop ideas in rapid time. Then, after I participated in the Ready2Order …[Read More]
Hackathon in Paris – IPGP Team
A few weeks ago, we organized and hosted a hackathon at IPGP and it turned out to be a very successful event. We are a group of five organizers who are: finishing their PhD in Machine Learning, no longer working as research scientists (currently involved in data science and data engineering), and still living …[Read More]

…ever thought of becoming a guest writer?
Why guest writers? Seismology opens a window into volcanic, tectonic, oceanic, atmospheric and artificial processes. Spanning from the generation of earthquakes, to their environmental effects, to the most hidden phenomena inside Earth, Seismology involves different scales in time and space. Different studies, different stories and different perspectives for a broader overview on the latest discoveries …[Read More]
