Dispelling the notion of the Boring Billion: Three Proterozoic unconformities, many many red beds and a meteorite impact deposit - not bad for one day in the field with Oxford Earth Sciences! Thanks to Alex Lipp for soft rock enthusiasm and expertise πŸ˜ƒ

We finally made it to the Cambrian! A great couple of days familiarising the 2nd year Oxford Earth Sciences undergrads with their mapping area units and loooots of thrusts! 😊

Released our 2nd year Oxford Earth Sciences students into their independent mapping area today. Some great progress, and looking forward to seeing the finished maps in 2 days time!

Final day mapping with Oxford Earth Sciences 2nd years - finishing in the sun🌞 to chase down a final few faults and angular unconformities. Huge thanks to the demo team: Marc St-Onge, Lot Koopmans Alex Lipp Catherine Baldwin Nikki Sridhar Kris Sokol, Tobermory Mackay-Champion & Ian Cawood

In this incredibly exciting study, researchers have recovered a 3.7-billion-year-old record of Earth’s magnetic field, and found that it appears remarkably similar to the field surrounding Earth today 🧲🌍 Read more on our news pages: earth.ox.ac.uk/2024/04/earths…

New research highlights the role of mantle convection in controlling Earth's topography! Researchers quantified the proportion of topography controlled by crustal thickness and density, allowing for the influence of mantle processes to be isolated. earth.ox.ac.uk/2024/04/mantle…
