Our own @BaerbelW traveled to Vienna for this year's #EGU General Assembly.

Baerbel herself did a couple of presentations in Vienna:

* Examples of Skeptical Science successfully collaborating with other organizations so as to better reach shared goals, get more gain for less effort. With so much reward, we're eager to do more.

* How Skeptical Science translates our content into 29 different languages, the challenges of maintaining a polyglot presence. You may be able to help!

Baerbel also kept a daily journal. It's loaded with links to scads of intriguing information presented at the assembly by many researchers, with teasers and organized for easy access.

Post facto virtual attendance , distilled and at our fingertips. :-)

Cratons are the oldest parts of Earth's continents. They are usually known to be extremely stable; they can hold up for billions of years. But there also seem to be changes that may occur in cratons, which could involve the removal of many layers of rock, and may disurpt their stability.

“The GEOROC Database (Geochemistry of Rocks of the Oceans and Continents) is a comprehensive collection of published analyses of igneous and metamorphic rocks and minerals. It contains major and trace element concentrations, radiogenic and nonradiogenic isotope ratios as well as analytical ages for whole rocks, glasses, minerals and inclusions. Metadata include geospatial and other sample information, analytical details and references….
Current content of GEOROC:
• 22,750 papers
• 685,660 samples
• 2,680,100 analyses
• 39,334,100 single data values…”

Hello Fediverse,
I am a researcher in #geoscience, focusing mostly on hydrogeology, hydrology, evaporation and rock weathering. I am affiliated with Charles University (Czech Republic).
I am here to stay in touch with – and share – news about #science and academic life. That's why I chose #Fediscience as my home server and will mostly contribute to the tags #academia and #academicchatter.
I am in my mid-thirties and live near Prague with my family. I enjoy reading #books and spending time in nature. Addicted to #coffee.
