Are you in #EarthScience and interested in improving #AcademicPublishing options in your field? I am preparing a proposal for a PCI Eart Sciences, which would be part of https://peercommunityin.org/ family of journals. The digital infrastructure and brand are there, i have benefited as an author and as an editor from PCI Paleo and I can attest to the high quality and robustness of this platform and process. Being involved doesn’t actually require committing a lot of your time, as it takes years to establish a new journal. At this point it is more about launching it and making it visible, so I am primarily looking for mid-to senior-career collaborators who can help steer publications towards this venue. Especially if you’re in the field of #EnvironmentalScience, #Tectonics, #Petrology, #Mineralogy, #PhysicalGeography, #Hydrogeology, #EarthSystemScience and #Climate you are most welcome as these fields are underrepresented in my network. You can contribute by becoming an editor, pledging a submission, or helping recruit a BigName in your field (maybe that’s you?). Please have a look at https://peercommunityin.org/ or get in touch. #OpenAccess #OpenScience #geoscience #OpenPeerReview

[I spent a lot of time living, working and exploring in the PNW – ski bum in Whistler, many dives, offroad motorcycling, engineering geologist, spatial data, cultural + technical + history reading, otherwise exploring, etc – and am fascinated by this area personally and professionally…]

#Tectonics as inspiring as ever. makes me want to incorporate a lot more extended technique, and a lot more performance, into what I do. there’s a bit of both in The Vallum but I feel like that’s probably the direction I want to go next with solo stuff
new string collective absolutely fantastic at #Tectonics. really beautiful stuff.
A great first day of #Tectonics yesterday in Glasgow. Lots of amazing music, but a particular highlight for me was Rachel Musson and Mark Sanders’ improvisatory collaboration with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra: sometimes fierce and invocatory, and at others tender and brooding.
Lovely to meet @jules_rawlinson too!
Looking forward to the surprises today’s second day will inevitably bring. Was anyone else there?

Modelling suggests that Earth's first crust, which fractionated from a magma ocean, would have had a similar trace element composition to modern continental crust: in other words, this signature is not a reliable marker of subduction and plate tectonics on the young Earth.

Tectonic–climatic interaction (Climatology )
Tectonic–climatic interaction is the interrelationship between tectonic processes and the climate system. The tectonic processes in question include orogenesis, volcanism, and erosion, while relevant climatic processes include atmospheric circulation, orographic lift, monsoon circulation and the rain shadow effect. As the geological ...
"The heavy meteor bombardment during this early period caused extensive disruption and recycling of the crust.
Plate tectonics may have worked in fits and starts, triggered by meteor impacts until about 3.8 billion years ago, when meteor bombardment decreased dramatically as the early Solar System’s chaos gave way to more orderly orbits."
For more insight into the tectonic background of today’s M7.7 #earthquake in Myanmar I’d recommend this blog post and the original article on extrusion tectonics. There is also a video hiding somewhere on YouTube that illustrates this experiment perfectly.

Believe me, we have our best minds working on the "geographically" part.
It occurs to me that moving the USA somewhere else would also be an acceptable fix...
