Spanish Coast Takes Precautionary Steps with Tsunami and Earthquake Emergency Plan

On October 21, 2024, the Spanish city of Marbella emerged as one of the first cities in Europe to work on developing a comprehensive emergency plan for tsunamis and earthquakes. This initiative, led by DT-GEO researcher Jorge Macías, a professor at the University of Málaga and a member of the EDANYA research group, aims to prepare the city for the rare but potentially devastating natural disasters that could strike the region.

Heard Around the World: How a Rockslide in Greenland Resonated Across the Earth for 9 Days

In a stunning demonstration of nature’s ability to leave a lasting impression, a team of scientists from DT-GEO and international collaborators have unveiled a groundbreaking discovery. Their study, published in Science, reveals how a single rockslide in East Greenland set off a seismic “song” that resonated through the Earth for nine days. This discovery not only highlights the profound interconnectedness of Earth’s systems but also showcases the power of human ingenuity and cutting-edge science to make sense of it all.
