Indonesia's Mount Merapi erupts, spewing ash 6 km high
Phys.org
Indonesia's Mount Merapi, one of the world's most active volcanoes, erupted twice on Sunday, sending clouds of grey ash 6,000 metres into the sky, the country's geological agency said. The two eruptions lasted around seven minutes, according to the agency, and prompted local authorities to order residents to stay outside a three-kilometre no-go zone around the rumbling crater near Indonesia's cultural capital Yogyakarta.

University of California - Santa Barbara via ScienceDaily
The Torridon sandstone in northwestern Scotland preserves six kilometers of river sediment from Precambrian times. But what sort of geological events were able to leave their mark for researchers to find 1 billion years later?

The monstrous 'blobs' near Earth's core may be even bigger than we thought
Live Science
Deep within Earth, where the solid mantle meets the molten outer core, strange continent-size blobs of hot rock jut out for hundreds of miles in every direction. These underground mountains go by many names: "thermo-chemical piles," "large low-shear velocity provinces" (LLSVPs), or sometimes just "the blobs." Geologists don't know much about where these blobs came from or what they are, but they do know that they're gargantuan.

Geologists shed light on the Tibetan Plateau origin puzzle: an open-and-shut perspective
China University of Geosciences via Phys.org
The Tibetan Plateau, the highest plateau in the world, is believed to have been formed through a tectonic process, when the Indian and Eurasian continental plates collided with each other. The landscape of this enigmatic plateau consists of unusual geological structures that have baffled geologists globally. For example, many independent geological units of different structures and ages are placed next to each other in a way that cannot be explained by a single tectonic event as per the existing theory. Intrigued by this, a group of scientists at the China University of Geosciences, led by Dr. Liu Demin, investigated in detail the geological structures of the southern Tibetan Plateau.

An integrated approach to estimate the mixing ratios in a karst system under different hydrogeological conditions
Journal of Hydrology: Regional Studies
The karst system of the Syemareh Dam site with the reservoir capacity of 3.2 bm3, located in the Zagros fold belt, southwestern of Iran, was studied under two conditions: before and after the reservoir impoundment as pre-reservoir and post-reservoir conditions, respectively.
