A Thin Section: January 2008
http://athinsection.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 22 January 2008. I found the centenary WoGE at. S site so now it's my turn. One great aspect of WoGE is that while searching for locations, sometimes I'll see something I've never seen before and I'll stop right there and go and find out what it is. This is one of those locations and at an oblique view to give a better sense of relief. To make it ever so slightly more challenging the east side has been clipped. Please post the latitude and longitude and a comment on the geology. T rex eats fish.

A Thin Section: WoGE#94
http://athinsection.blogspot.com/2008/01/woge94.html
Thursday, 17 January 2008. Lat 46°36'50' N. Lon 60°26'00' E. 17 January 2008 at 19:08. So please post the URL of your WoGE #95 here. Also, perhaps you'd like to tell us a bit about how you found it. 17 January 2008 at 19:25. And I was looking at all the weird costal features. It never occured to me to look for a lake! 17 January 2008 at 19:53. Hi, pl just asked me to host his picture. Is that okay? 17 January 2008 at 20:33. I can have a go now. 17 January 2008 at 20:43. Okay, WoGE #95 is hosted on EffJot.

A Thin Section: WoGE#96
http://athinsection.blogspot.com/2008/01/woge96.html
Friday, 18 January 2008. Ardnamurchan peninsula in Scotland. The circular feature is a caldera.I'm not sure what age, probably associated with rifting away from Greenland? 18 January 2008 at 16:06. You're right and is apt that you should host the next one! The caldera is early Tertiary approx 60Ma and is associated which the formation of the NE Atlantic and a split between Europe and Greenland. 18 January 2008 at 17:03. WoGE #97 is here. 18 January 2008 at 17:13. 1 April 2009 at 05:37. T rex eats fish.

Romania Rocks: A day on the river
http://romania-rocks.blogspot.com/2010/10/day-on-river.html
Musing about Romania, geology and other things that come to mind. Sunday, October 3, 2010. A day on the river. You are a geologist when you have fun digging trenches to see cross-bedding and when you enjoy photographing mud clasts on a Saturday afternoon. The first stop was on the opposite bank from the meander loop cut-off, indicated by the yellow arrow in the picture above. A point bar with a lot of awesome features, worthy of any Geology 101 class: ripples and dunes. More ripples and dunes. Geology an...

Romania Rocks: A New Year family tradition
http://romania-rocks.blogspot.com/2010/01/new-year-family-tradition.html
Musing about Romania, geology and other things that come to mind. Friday, January 1, 2010. A New Year family tradition. We do not have too many traditions in my family. We are pretty unconventional and non-traditional (I will spare you the boring details). We do have one New Year tradition, however, we always watch the New Year's Concert from Vienna. This year again, I enjoyed a glass of Champagne listening to the music of the Strauss family and feeling connected the the past, present and the future.

Romania Rocks: Mud cracks revisited
http://romania-rocks.blogspot.com/2011/01/mud-cracks-revisited.html
Musing about Romania, geology and other things that come to mind. Sunday, January 9, 2011. In a previous post. I showed a picture of the desiccation cracks that formed when a little pond on our Brenham property dried out this summer. We visited three months later (yesterday), and found that the cracks in the mud weathered, and now look more like ant mounds. The two pictures, side by side are shown below. October 14, 2010 ©RomaniaRocks January 8, 2011. January 9, 2011 at 11:04 AM. Another nice post. D...

Musing about Romania, geology and other things that come to mind. Friday, December 10, 2010. Earth as art #1. Fascinating geomorphology in the Arctic tundra combined with modern technology (multitemporal Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar), gives this amazing image that rivals the most creative human talent.

Musing about Romania, geology and other things that come to mind. Wednesday, December 29, 2010. Romania viewed from above - Carpathians and the Black Sea. Envisat image showing the deep freeze that affected the southeastern Europe in January 2010. Image source - European Space Agency. Weather in Europe has been very rough recently, so it looks like the year will end the same as it started: cold! Links to this post. Labels: Romania from above. Sunday, December 26, 2010.

All of My Faults Are Stress-Related: October 2008
http://shearsensibility.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
All of My Faults Are Stress-Related. Structural geology, tectonics, and teaching in the Rockies. Thursday, October 30, 2008. Happy day-before-Halloween. (All Hallow's Eve Eve? Though, I don't have the heart for it. Poor little guys.). A few years ago, I encouraged my intro class to dress up as something geological. I forgot to do it this year (and it worked better when the class suggested the idea), but I got to wondering. What would be the scariest possible geologic costume? Links to this post. This one...
