HI Volcanology and Natural Hazard Research Group

First on our list of master's student members is Jacqueline Grech Licari (@GrechLicari). She is a Maltese student specialising in physical volcanology and geochemistry at the Faculty of Earth Sciences at @Haskoli_Islands and is graduating in October (1/4)

@GrechLicari

@GrechLicari obtained a B.Sc. in Earth Systems from the @UMmalta in 2018, where she evaluated #tsunami impacts on the NE coast of Malta. She joined us in 2019 after conducting #scicomm at @EsploraMT (2/4)

@ThorvaldurThor4

Her thesis investigated shallow conduit processes, volatile behaviour & transport-deposition mechanisms of the #explosive phases of the 1211 Yngri Stampar #eruption in #Reykjanes. She was supervised by @ThorvaldurThor4, @volcano_will, Prof. Enikö Balí & Prof. Bruce Houghton (3/4)

We just printed 20k flyers that will be distributed in #Spain 🇪🇸 as part of our #worldwide targeting #strategy. 🌐

We are also taking advantage of this week to strengthen our #network of #partners, meet new #talents and stabilize the #beta. 💪

🖥 On the #development side, we recently added #notifications to our #app while passing the 1,500 #memers mark.

👉 New #features are coming soon, including #meme #contests & improvements of our native #meme #editor, which will soon include #GIFs. Stay tuned, the next few months will be #explosive! 🔥

We are on the verge of an unprecedented #revolution led by #memes. Are you ready? 😉

A few words on how this spray is generated and why the #beetle is not harmed in the process:

Hydroquinone and hydrogen peroxide are secreted by specialized glands and stored in a tank. Other glands produce catalyst enzymes such as catalases and peroxidases. 1/7

https://twitter.com/MalekRobert/status/1512447713815711750

When the contents of the two glands are mixed, oxygen forms and in turn reacts with hydroquinone to convert it to benzoquinone. Pressure due to the buildup of oxygen then causes the hot mixture of water and benzoquinone to be expelled. 2/7

The explosion chamber is made of a mixture of chitin, proteins and waxes, which protect the beetle’s soft interior from the chemical mix, the high temperatures and the pressure. To withstand the #explosive force, the blast consists of a series of micro-pulses. 3/7

What is known so far about #FR4978 emergency landing. 1. It was close to #Lithuania border when someone informed about 'explosive'.

4. Before the flight Raman Pratasevich (ex @nexta_tv ) wrote to his friend someone showed suspicious interest in him at the registration in #Athens airport.
5. A Russian-speaking man presumably attempted making a pic of Pratasevich's passport, then left the queue abruptly. 2/

6. Currently Raman Pratasevich works as an editor-in-chief of Belarus Golovnogo Mozga web resource which is considered 'extermist' by authorities.
7. After document check in #Minsk, he was detained,.
8. #Belarus authorities: Mig-29 will accompany #FR4978 to the border 3/
