John pretty much sums it all up…
I've written a blog post about why I'm on #strike today. It shows how the public sector pays £32k for a "software developer" where the private sector pays £35-70k. We struggle to recruit and retain staff and services are suffering. all-geo.org/volcan01010/2023… cc #prospectstrike

After big #earthquake, explaining geological processes can help affected community & general public to understand what happened. Open access is crucial. DOA journals, @WeAreTektonika @WeAreSeismica should be best targets for sci. papers on the 6 Feb Kahramanmaraş earthquakes. 1/
