David RuffnerThere was a megatsunami in Lituya Bay in 1958, <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1958_Lituya_Bay_earthquake_and_megatsunami" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1958_Lituya_Bay_earthquake_and_megatsunami</a> . An earthquake caused a massive rockfall into a bay. The impact with the water generated a massive wave with a run up of 520m on the opposing slope. It was a shockingly powerful wave!It turns out this kind of event is a risk in high latitude mountainous coastlines. The glaciers create steep valleys with fjords. The steep slopes have a high rockfall risk. In Norway, they are doing a mapping program to give warning before such disasters <a href="https://www.earthmagazine.org/article/comment-assessing-threat-massive-rock-slope-failures-norwegian-fjordlands" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.earthmagazine.org/article/comment-assessing-threat-massive-rock-slope-failures-norwegian-fjordlands</a><a href="https://raphus.social/tags/TIL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TIL</a> <a href="https://raphus.social/tags/megatsunami" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#megatsunami</a> <a href="https://raphus.social/tags/tsunami" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tsunami</a> <a href="https://raphus.social/tags/rockfall" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rockfall</a>

Russ CheshireYesterday evening I watched "La Montagne", a film about a man's experiences in the Alps near Chamonix. Part of the plot involves (in a mystical way) lights emanating from rocks and ice, with unusual results... However, I have a vague memory that sparks of light can sometimes be an indicator of an imminent rockfall, perhaps in some kind of piezoelectric process; has anyone else come across this?<a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/mountain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mountain</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/rockfall" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rockfall</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glacier" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#glacier</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/alpine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#alpine</a>

BellingenNSWThe end of the road trip?The culture of 'the drive' requires sisyphean road maintenance, especially in a climate emergency.Mobile sprawl as a form of 'recreation' eliminates the landscape. It is the annihilation of space and time. Motorists want to get from their door to the spectacle in the fastest way possible. The 'in-between space' viewed through the car window vanishes.The pleasure cruise from A to B does not just degrade the landscape, but also eradicates possibilities of a livable planet. The overuse by the masses in their fossil fuel boxes makes the hillsides crumble, leads to landslides and erosion. After flash flooding, drought and heatwaves the roads have to be rebuilt over and over again.Here are three cases of 'scenic drives': California, Victoria and NSWExtreme weather is changing California.

In this work we include a seismic trigger to our national-scale, high-resolution rockfall simulations, getting one step closer to a full assessment of rockfall hazard. ✨𝗦𝗲𝗶𝘀𝗺𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗳𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗵𝗮𝘇𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗮 𝗽𝗵𝘆𝘀𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝗰𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗼𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗜𝘁𝗮𝗹𝘆: <a href="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geomorph.2023.108652" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geomorph.2023.108652</a> <a href="https://mastodon.uno/tags/rockfall" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rockfall</a> <a href="https://mastodon.uno/tags/slopestability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slopestability</a> <a href="https://mastodon.uno/tags/landslides" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#landslides</a> <a href="https://mastodon.uno/tags/seismic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#seismic</a> <a href="https://mastodon.uno/tags/earthquake" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#earthquake</a> <a href="https://mastodon.uno/tags/modeling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#modeling</a> <a href="https://mastodon.uno/tags/geomorphology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#geomorphology</a>
