Closing soon (4th Feb) - 3 year postdoc (or lecturer) in earthquake geology/broader science at the University of Melbourne
can't count, that's clearly 6 posts 🤦
the @earthquake.bsky.socialearthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/... ), presumably it's picking up every USGS review of the event?
(Image is of Sellicks Beach, south of Adelaide. The hills in the background are on the hanging-wall of the Willunga Fault, an active reverse fault with ~240m displacement. More info: www.ga.gov.au/news-events/...)
The position is part of a larger project involving collaboration with Geoscience Australia (i.e. the team I'm in!) and other partners I'm happy to answer any general Q's regarding Australian postdoc/academic positions. Contact Mark Quigley for specific info on the position

Today’s M5.9 shallow reverse faulting earthquake in China occurred in a seismically active region, with significant population centers nearby. There are early reports of casualties and significant damage. 🧪⚒️
The M3.2 earthquake near Berridale (15km E of Jindabyne) NSW earlier this week has been followed by at least 6 additional events to date. This area has previously hosted several seismic clusters of <M2.5 as well as more significant events, eg. 1885 M4.6 and 1959 M5.3 earthquakes ⚒️🧪
The palm-lined trace of the San Andreas Fault near Indio, CA. In the distance is Pushawalla Canyon. North America is to the left; Pacific Plate to the right. Fault gouge produced due to the grinding action of the fault acts as a vertical barrier to groundwater flow; that's why the palms grow here.
