  • Infectious fascination with the natural world

    Dipping my toes into science-based podcasts… the infectious joy from the two hosts of Wonder makes this an accessible and entertaining listen! Loved hearing about Hedda’s research into glacial changes and will definitely listen to more episodes.

    It’s always so good to hear people share their passions, you can hear the excitement in their voices.. and that’s infectious.

    Thanks Anthony and Holly!

Early earth & mysterious continents | Dr Jack Mulder; Everchanging Earth part 3
Q: What does the evidence from the Pilbara tell us about tectonics?
It suggests that early Earth processes were quite different from modern plate tectonics.
Tibet's January Earthquake and the Santorini Swarm
Q: What are the tectonic processes that lead to earthquakes like the one in Tibet?
The collision of the Indian Plate with the Asian Plate has created a complex geological scenario leading to earthquakes, involving both compression in some areas and extension in others due to uplift and gravity.
Tibet's January Earthquake and the Santorini Swarm
Q: Can you help us navigate the recent devastation in Tibet due to the earthquake?
The earthquake was a 7.1 magnitude quake that resulted in significant destruction and loss of life in rural areas of Tibet. Many structures were destroyed, and the region faced struggles due to winter conditions.
A place for science & peace | Dr Jacqueline Halpin; Antarctica part 1
Q: Can you share some tips for surviving your PhD?
It's crucial to find the right team and have a good relationship with your supervisor to navigate the journey effectively.
