Recent events in Turkiye and Syria are a reminder of the dangers of living near fault lines. Is Vancouver ready? @SFUEarthScience professor John Clague weighs in on the risk.
The pending megathrust earthquake known as the "Big One" has been a source of worry on B.C.'s South Coast for years – but some scientists are even more concerned about the potential impact of smaller quakes closer to Metro Vancouver. bc.ctvnews.ca/the-big-one-is…

It seems like more than two years ago I was teaching Terrain Analysis (Air photo mapping) during covid. But this course is a two year cycle, so it must be true! A reminder of how different teaching was then! See the old thread. #covidteaching @SFUEarthScience

Volcanologist and @SFU scholar Glyn Williams-Jones (@VolcanoCanuck) and his team have observed how thinning glaciers caused by climate change are making Mount Meager (Qw’elqw’elústen)—an active volcano in British Columbia—increasingly unstable.
