A unique earthquake detection system: a blend of collaborative work from eyewitnesses and of data collection from seismic institutes. You felt an earthquake and want to add or see testimonies on a specific seismic event? Do you want to know if there are any earthquakes near you, or see the worldwide earthquakes in the last 24 hours?

Sitting in a meeting with many scientists in #Greenland to coordinate fieldwork to minimise disruption to local communities and ecosystems.

Apparently there were *25* cruise ships that arrived in Ittoqqortoormiit this year - each time with ~700 people on board 😱 😳
#ittoqqortoormiit is a tiny community of ~470 people

#CruiseShip #Tourism is essentially unregulated in Greenland, some hope for it to be a source of income - but the impacts are horrendous + little evidence it benefits locals
