European Federation of Geologists
 John Shanklin recently passed away in the Countess of Chester hospital, England. Shanklin was deeply involved in the politics of geology in the United Kingdom. He helped to create the Institution of Geologists and later was involved in the merger of that organization with the Geological Society. This led to the establishment of the title Chartered Geologist.
Shanklin gave more than 20 years of his life to the European Federation of Geologists and received the award of AIPG Honorary Membership in 1993.

The emerging discipline of space meteorology aims to reliably predict solar flares so that we may better guard against their effects. Using 3-D numerical models, an international team has discovered a proxy that could be used to forecast an eruptive event.

An international team of researchers led by geoscientists with the Virginia Tech College of Science recently discovered that deep portions of Earth's mantle might be as hot as it was more than 2.5 billion years ago. The study is published in the latest issue of Nature Geoscience. The study brings new, unprecedented evidence on the thermal evolution of the deep Earth during the past 2.5 billion years.

Sedimentary layers contain stratigraphic cycles and patterns that precisely reveal the succession of climatic and tectonic conditions that have occurred over millennia. Researchers have been working on an analytical method that combines observing deep-water sedimentary strata and measuring in them the isotopic ratio between heavy and light carbon. They have discovered that the cycles that punctuate these sedimentary successions are ascribable to sea level changes.

Mars is a cold, arid world with a thin atmosphere, but that wasn't always so. In its youth Mars was wet with rivers and oceans. Presumably that also means young Mars had rainfall. But how much did it rain on Mars? New research proves not only did it rain on Mars, the rains were strong enough to shape the planet's surface.

The world's best preserved dinosaur fossil went on display in Canada six years after it was accidentally found by a shovel operator.
Alberta's Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology placed the incredibly well-preserved remains of the 112-million-year-old nodosaur on display as part of its new Grounds for Discovery exhibit, dedicated to fossils that were discovered through industrial work.
