      22. Dunes: the largest dunes, the sounds of deserts, Dune the movie, and Roxanne
      May 30 2024

      In this episode we discuss dunes.

      How do dunes form and what do they look like when preserved in rocks? What is the geology behind the recent Dune movies? What sounds do migrating sand grains make?

      We cover all this and more in our 20 minute episode. In this weeks edition of "what in the world?" we also play a very special geology version of the 1978 classic hit by The Police, "Roxanne".

      Enjoy!

    • 21. Earthquakes: how do they occur, how are they predicted, and ground-breaking geology

      21. Earthquakes: how do they occur, how are they predicted, and ground-breaking geology
      May 16 2024

      In this episode, we discuss how and where earthquakes occur, including how they are measured and how we predict them using the animal kingdom.

      We also chat about the recent April New York earthquake and the devastating 2004 boxing day tsunami which killed approximately 230,000 people.

      We finish by discussing how earthquakes produce seismic waves that are used to provide information on the layers of Earth.

      20. Diamonds: volcanoes, glaciers, and raining diamonds
      May 2 2024

      This episode focusses on diamonds.

      We cover how and where diamonds form, how geologists find them, what determines their value and what are the most valuable diamonds in the world.

      Topics include using sub-glacial streams or eskers to trace the source of diamonds upstream, the value of the largest diamond in the world, and the formation of diamond cores in dwarf stars.

      We also discuss diamonds that are older than our sun, and how it rains diamonds in Neptune and Uranus.
