Australia leads the world in Earth Science research, #criticalmetals for the energy transition and the resources all society uses every day. So I hope we can secure the “Olympics” of geoscience by hosting this event.Sustainable Minerals Institute

The recent grant from the Gulf Research Program of the National Academy of Sciences to LSU and Tulane https://lnkd.in/gCxjRayR was conceived in response to the research gaps noted in their 2018 study https://lnkd.in/g4uRcaXt . There is tremendous opportunity to integrate the energy industry knowledge base of subsurface geology into understanding surface processes of the lower Mississippi River.

Our last paper from the University of KwaZulu-Natal Marine Geology Research Unit for 2023 is one I co-authored with the effervescent Prof Andrew Cooper of Ulster University. We examine the various sandy coastal compartments of southern Africa and assess their possible fate in the context of near future sea-level rise. You can find the article here https://lnkd.in/de42UBV4Let's grab a coldie, peace and love for 2024.

Terrestrial Mining and Seabed mining are really two very different worlds, and should be treated as such. Considering the mammoth task of exploring for vent fields, extraction and preservation of ore, grade and tonnage requirements for resource (all on top of legal and environment conservation constraints), perhaps the treasures of the sea are meant to be just that, treasures of the sea😊! This was an impressive presentation.#seafloormassivesulfides#seabedmining#seafloormapping

It's a pleasure to share that mine and John Howell new paper has been published in the Journal of The Geological Society . https://lnkd.in/dvH4WyhrThat's the 3rd and last one of my PhD thesis and certainly the one which I enjoyed the most. This paper explores the stratigraphic expression and apparent absence of rocky shorelines in the subsurface of the North Sea's. Hopefully this paper will inspire future work and reassesment of some basic concepts such as the role of coastal cliffs as sediment sources and the sedimentological and palaeogeographical implications of thin, unconformity bounded basal conglomerate deposits, sometimes interpreted simply as transgressive lags, overlooking an important part of marine basins sedimentary record.

Another world-class outcrop explored by our bachelor students Department of Earth Sciences - UNIGE with Sébastien Castelltort, Lucas Vimpere and Marine Prieur.At the top of the Esclangon panorama near Digne-les-Bains, facing the scenic "Velodrome", we discussed the complex interplay of tectonic and sedimentological processes involved in the growth of the Alps, including perspectives from applied geology with Arnaud Le Bec.
