Oklahoma Geological Survey is hosting this session to show off some recent core acquisitions we did in collaboration with Arkansas, as well as some tools and facilities we're building out. But all are welcome, especially concerning H2, CCS, and critical minerals etc...

Interesting. But still, aren't the remarkable excursions in CO2 through time (that we can discern anyway) associated with volcanics and major oceanographic reconfigurations? ... I will read the paper though ;)

In our discussions the other day faculty-track careers continued to be viewed as the "traditional" track, but I wonder if they even have the numbers (of opportunities) to continue to be considered as such. Certainly those opportunities haven't *grown* much with respect to other fields, have they?

I had a Ph.D. student who was asked to resubmit a longer-format paper with more data to make the point. We didn't agree, but acquiesced. During the few months we worked it up, the same reviewer published his take, then reviewed ours again saying it was now redundant....

There is, and this doesn't seem to be a risk for USDWs. It likely wouldn't have even triggered a response in a Class-II well, which often injects far worse fluids.

you're visiting the basement near Mecca Hills!!! Jelly. Missing this GSA cause of a conflict :(

I'm always tempted to ignore people like Mark Jacobson on the other feed, but it's good to be challenged, so I make a "no-mute" policy, unless people devolve to personal insults, and even then. I've been muted a couple times, maybe deserved it once or twice :)

For sure! A strange but meaningful compliment (I think I've received that compliment perhaps twice). The ideas have been floating around for a while, maybe even back to Harry Hess. But the association of the hyperextension/mantle exhumation, and focus on S. Atlantic is new.

man, having FOMO about that one. We talked about this a few years ago when I was working closely with Luc Lavier, and somehow didn't jump on it. Looking forward to reading it.

Wow! What a great resource. Thanks! I'll be able to restrict the other place to chatter about the band Phish and odd politics clips. Only geo here!
