EAS Meeting March 2022 - Dr. Kimberly Ennico Smith, Mapping Water on the Moon
NASA is sending a mobile robot to the surface of the South Pole of the Moon to get a close-up view of the location and concentration of ice and other resources. The Volatiles Investigating Polar Exploration Rover, or VIPER, is the first resource-mapping mission on another celestial body. VIPER will give us surface-level detail of where the water is and how much is available for us to use to support future human space exploration. Scientifically, ground-truthing the water presence (or non-presence) at rover/human scales can tackle open questions on the origin of the water, hydroxyl, and other volatiles, how much is there today, how did it get there, and equally important, why is it still there?

Wild Animals That SAVED Human Lives! 🐻https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mllqeVSsIl0
11. Sharks and Rays
While you might not find sharks in a tornado, sharks living inside a volcano, are very very real!! A group of scientists went on an expedition to visit one of the Southwest Pacific's most active underwater volcanoes. The waters around the volcano are too hot and acidic for human divers, even when there there is not ash, lava, and steam spewing from the crater!
10. Alaskan Fur Seals
The northern fur seal population has been popping up in a very unlikely location. Right on top of a tiny island that forms the tip of an active undersea volcano. Fur seals have been endangered for quite some time, but by managing to survive on Bogoslof Island their numbers have started to grow!
9. Giant Wooly Rat
While filming a documentary for the BBC in Papua New Guinea, a group of biologists and local trackers discovered a new species! The wooly rat, a very large, fluffy rat. The film-making expedition was studying the rainforest around the extinct volcano named Mount Bosavi. The crater is 2.5 miles wide and surrounded with walls one-half a mile high. The extinct volcano didn't necessarily look like there would be much going on in the crater.
8. Fanged Fish
When a group of researchers set out to investigate an eddy or whirlpool off the coast of Sydney, they discovered a number of tiny critters living in undersea volcanoes off the coast of the continent. The scaleless blackfish with its translucent fangs looks pretty slimy and ugly. But it turns out that in these warm acidic waters near underwater volcanoes, the fish are doing pretty well!
7. Galapagos Snakes
There are 21 volcanoes on the Galapagos Islands and of these, 13 are active. This unique place has many species found nowhere else on earth. There are a large variety of tortoises, iguanas, lizards and geckos, birds, seals, and sea lions just to name a few!
6. Polychaete Worm
Volcanoes aren’t exempt from creepy crawlies! 3,900 feet down on a muddy seafloor, scientists spotted a strange glowing creature. Known as a polychaete worm, the creature is actually a ferocious predator with jaws like something out of a horror movie.
5. Loihi Shrimp
At an active underwater volcano near Guam, an increase in the number of shrimp, crab and barnacles caught the interest of scientists. Water around the volcano is harsh, with a number of chemicals that are toxic to normal marine life but somehow, life there Is thriving. The hydrothermal vents from the volcano coat the rocks with a food source for nearby creatures, which is what sent researchers out to determine if there is a direct connection between the growing volcanic activity and the increased underwater life.
4. Deep Sea Coral
Studying underwater volcanoes can be a dangerous and time-consuming process. But researchers have found a new way to do so - by studying corals. As they grow, the skeletons of black corals preserve a record of noble gases in seawater, which provides information on nearby volcanic activity.
3. Invertebrates
They key to surviving around underwater volcanoes? Hydrothermal bacteria. When a fissure opens up in the bottom of the ocean, three things are released into the water - hot water, minerals and bacteria.
2. Mt. St. Helens
In 1980, Mount Saint Helens in the state of Washington, USA erupted and made a devastating impact on the land surrounding it. Over 200 mi.² (517 sq km) of forest, streams and lakes became covered in grey ash, mud flow and avalanche debris.
1. Megapode Birds
In Papua New Guinea, there’s a species of bird that actually needs the specialized environment around a volcano to breed. Known as megapodes, or incubator birds, they are similar to chickens, with a small head and large feet, and their name comes from the Greek meaning ‘large foot'. In the caldera of Mount Bosavi, the Megapodius burrow into the hot ashes to bury their eggs.

From giant caves full of crystals to magical mountains, here are 11 of the Earth’s most beautiful geological wonders!

11. Arashiyama Bamboo Grove
Located in Kyoto, Japan, this Bamboo Grove is one of the most photographed sights in the city!! A little in the outskirts, this place has been a popular relaxing destination since the year 794AD, when nobles would come to enjoy the natural setting. Arashiyama is very popular during the fall and during cherry blossom season!
10. Antelope Canyon
If you think water and rock don’t mix, you’d be wrong. In fact they combine to produce the most stunning geological results, as Antelope Canyon shows! Located a stone’s throw - see what I did there? - from the city of Page in Arizona, it’s both ancient and modern. What do I mean by that? Well, the site, lived on and owned by the Navajo Nation, is not only part of history but also a popular tourist destination. On top of that, it’s also Insta famous!
9. Blue Hole
When sinkholes are mentioned in the news, it’s typically to do with some kind of disaster on land. However marine sinkholes are different, and the amazing Great Blue Hole of Belize is a treasure trove of marine life and ancient history! This bluest of blue wonders, formed from limestone and measuring 984 ft across and over 400 ft deep, is thought to have been created around the last Ice Age. That makes it approx 14,000 years old!
8. Cretaceous- Paleogene Boundary
Geological wonders can really surprise us. They aren’t all huge chunks of rock or eye-catching fossils and stuff like that. Some can be pretty small, but highly significant to our understanding of what goes on with planet Earth. A classic case is the K-Pg boundary, or Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary.
7. Crystal Cave
The Sierra de Naica mountain in Mexico is an impressive enough geological spectacle as it is. But it’s what’s beneath the mountain that interests us most. At the start of the century a mining company went down there to drain the area looking for stuff to make a profit on. Situated in Chihuahua, Mexico, the underground mine is highly automated.
6. Door to Hell
The Darvaza crater, or the Door to Hell, is located in the country of Turkmenistan. Most of Turkmenistan is made up of the Karakum Desert - what better place for such a fiery geological marvel? We should say the Door to Hell isn’t a door as such. It’s a blazing pit that’s been burning for decades! The crater is 230 ft wide and 98 ft deep.
5. Fumaroles Yellowstone
There’s a lot going on beneath the Earth’s crust. For example, intense heat generated at Yellowstone comes from volcanic forces underground. Wyoming didn’t know what hit it a whopping 600,000 years back. A huge explosion resulted in the Yellowstone fumaroles. They’re a beautiful sight to be sure, but Mother Nature made them in an extremely dangerous way!
4. Giants Causeway
County Antrim in Northern Ireland features the most magical piece of geology on our list. The famous Giants Causeway is so called because of Finn McCool. He wasn’t a giant, but a medieval warrior chieftain. And in case you’re thinking “Finn McCool” sounds a lot like a cartoon dog, his alternative handle is Fionn MacCumhaill. Either way, he was a formidable opponent.
3. Kilauea Volcano
Found in the Pacific Ocean on the so-called ‘Big Island’ of Hawai’i, Kilauea is one fiery little shield volcano. What’s a shield volcano? It’s where a continuous flow of fluid lava creates a volcano with a low, shield-like shape. Part of Kilauea has been erupting for several decades, meaning that the majority of the outside is made up of new lava.
2. Mount Roraima
Natives of the area think that Mount Roraima is the stump of a mighty tree that once held all the fruits and most of the vegetables in the world! They also believe that it was knocked down by Makunaima, the trickster god. This is the beginning of life as we know it as when the tree crashed to the ground, life was released.
1. Tibetan Plateau
Our last pick is arguably the most awesome. This mighty plateau in Western China holds the region of Tibet and is populated by over 4 million people. Living at a height of 16,400 ft, there’s few people that are hardier than the Tibetans, who’ve faced both environmental and political hardship over the decades.

Welcome to the beautiful Kráter Tó-Mesebeli Oasis! Here you'll find all the information you need about the geothermal area and the activities available to the public.
This area is one of the most beautiful in Hungary and it's a great place to visit if you're interested in nature or want to explore some of Hungary's most beautiful landscape. If you're curious about geothermal activity or want to learn more about the area, this is the place for you!
A Kráter Tó Az 1961-es gázkitörés nyomán jött létre.
A Kráter Tó mintegy 200 m átmérőjű, körülötte pedig a kitörésből egy 17 m-es földsánc keletkezett A Kráter Tó mellett emlékhely mesél arról, hogy Nagyhegyes egykor az alföldi földgázkitermelés egyik központja volt. A Kráter Tó melyet körülölelő sánc övez most erdő borítja, mely zömmel nemes nyárból áll. Az erdővel övezett Kráter Tó védett, hűvös, párás mikroklímája jelentősen eltér a környező, az időjárásnak jobban kitett szántóföldek klímájától. Tengerszemre hasonlító Kráter Tó az Alföld közepén egy igazi oázis.
A Kráter Tó körül és a "földsánc" tetején sétautat alakítottak ki, padokkal. A bejárat mellett az emlékhelytől jobbra és balra szalonnasütő helyet hoztak létre, ahol bográcsozni, grillezni is lehet.
A Kráter Tó könnyedén megközelíthető, Nagyhegyes határától csupán bő 3 k m könnyed sétéval.

A Kráter Tó melyet körülölelő sánc övez most erdő borítja, mely zömmel nemes nyárból áll. Az erdővel övezett Kráter Tó védett, hűvös, párás mikroklímája jelentősen eltér a környező, az időjárásnak jobban kitett szántóföldek klímájától. Tengerszemre hasonlító Kráter Tó az Alföld közepén egy igazi oázis.
A Kráter Tó körül és a "földsánc" tetején sétautat alakítottak ki, padokkal. A bejárat mellett az emlékhelytől jobbra és balra szalonnasütő helyet hoztak létre, ahol bográcsozni, grillezni is lehet.
A Kráter Tó könnyedén megközelíthető, Nagyhegyes határától csupán bő 3 k m könnyed sétéval.

06:40:16 - 17 - Fakers, Forgers and the Law
IIn analysing the Faker one must dissociate him from the common forger; his semi-artistic vocation places him quite apart from the ordinary counterfeiter; he must be studied amid his proper surroundings, and with the correct local colouring, so to speak, and his critic may perchance find some slight modicum of excuse for him. Beside him stand the Imitator, from whom the faker often originates, the tempter who turns the clever imitator into a faker, and the middleman who lures on the unwary collector with plausible tales.It is not the object of this volume to study the Faker by himself, but to trace his career through the ages in his appropriate surroundings, and compare the methods adopted by him at various periods of history, so far as they may be obtained. (from the Preface)

EAS Meeting March 2022 - Dr. Kimberly Ennico Smith, Mapping Water on the Moon

NASA is sending a mobile robot to the surface of the South Pole of the Moon to get a close-up view of the location and concentration of ice and other resources. The Volatiles Investigating Polar Exploration Rover, or VIPER, is the first resource-mapping mission on another celestial body. VIPER will give us surface-level detail of where the water is and how much is available for us to use to support future human space exploration. Scientifically, ground-truthing the water presence (or non-presence) at rover/human scales can tackle open questions on the origin of the water, hydroxyl, and other volatiles, how much is there today, how did it get there, and equally important, why is it still there? This talk summarizes the motivations for, the design of, the challenges at lunar poles, and the significance of this mission.
