1. Notice a weird signal
2. Locate it in East Greenland
3. Contact 100 colleagues & set up a Mattermost chat
4. Ideas/Research/models: 1 year
5. Publish a fantastic collaborative piece!

Out today! Results of a multidisciplinary collaboration of dozens of scientists across the globe (including me)! A rockfall into a glacier into a fjord in Greenland caused a tsunami and seiche that generated a monotonic seismic signal for 9(!) days!

My thread on Bluesky goes into way more detail... it really would be better if you read it there (and just got an account and started posting there yourself):

What happens if 69 excited co-authors see their study published (science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…)?
For example, stunning animations newly composed music inspired by the 10.88 mHz seismic signal 🎶

🚨Day 3 of @EarthScope_sci #InSAR Training🚨
We keep going on InSAR processing using open source #ISCE 🥳. @gfun is showing how modeling outputs relates to InSAR & how to prepare InSAR data for modeling. @HereshF is next talking about InSAR time series analysis.

We are starting day 2 of the @EarthScope_sci #ISCE InSAR training 🥳. @gfun is doing an exercise on interpreting & manually unwrapping InSAR data. Always trickier than you think. TOPS processing is next!

🗞️#InSAR Crowd🗞️
Today is first day of the annual @EarthScope_sci InSAR course based on ISCE & MintPy 🥳. We will go through stuff from InSAR processing to InSAR time series & geophysical modeling.
Right now @gfun is kicking us off with InSAR in Geophysics.

Whether it’s Republicans storming the Capitol on January 6 or a Republican trying to shoot Donald Trump on July 13, both sides have a violence problem.

Markov chain Monte Carlo methods are used to sample from a Gibbs distribution without knowing the normalizing constant. As the temperature epsilon gets small, samples cluster close to minimizers. Metropolis-Hastings is the simplest provably converging Markov Chain. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markov…

I find it weird that newspapers characterize students as being “pro-Palestinian” as opposed to anti whatever you call this.
