    Earthquake Nucleation and Foreshock Mechanisms: cascade triggering, pre-slip, or fluid flows?

    Understanding the nucleation process of large earthquakes is crucial for accurate earthquake prediction and seismic hazard mitigation. While earthquake nucleation process has been widely observed in the laboratory and numerical simulation, it is difficult to observe them directly in the field. Some studies have considered foreshocks as the by-product of such nucleation process. Many large earthquakes also have...

    Undergraduate Department Tutorial: Naomi Oreskes

    6:00pm to 7:00pm

    Location: 

    Hoffman Fourth Floor Faculty Lounge (Room 409)

    Department tutorials provide a chance for EPS concentrators and prospective students alike to meet with EPS faculty in an informal setting. In addition to learning about the variety of research opportunities available within EPS, the tutorials are also a great way to meet other students interested in earth and planetary sciences.

    Our November 29 presenter is Professor Naomi Oreskes, whose research focuses on the role of science in society and the reality of anthropogenic climate change.

    All EPS concentrators are required to attend five tutorials before graduation....

    ‘Picking your path’ towards accessible and inclusive geoscience field education

    Fieldwork is a critical aspect of geoscience education and there is now a substantive body of research-informed evidence to support its continued inclusion in the undergraduate geoscience curriculum. However, while the value of fieldwork for understanding the Earth and Earth processes is well established, fieldwork as an activity is not inclusive or accessible for all students. This is particularly true for students with disabilities who can encounter multiple barriers to participating in...
