Eric-Geochem Sun 1 Mar 2020 4:53PM
Hi all. I'm Eric, a geochemist. My research focuses on materials relate to energy and environment that can address the energy crisis from a perspective of sustainability. I am particularly interested in the geochemical processes in fluid-rock interactions. My current work investigates the degradation of nuclear material in repository environments and the oil-rock interactions in unconventional shale. https://er1czz.github.io/

David Sat 2 Nov 2019 5:52AM
Hi there! Welcome to EarthArXiv!! David Fernández-Blanco here! I've been the "community manager" (twitter) almost since EA take off -- so if you saw your submission announced, that was probably me!
I'm a postdoc that likes orogen-basin integrations at tectonic scale and am at Imperial College London now. For the curious: http://geodavidfdez.com/

Jess Hillman Wed 30 Oct 2019 6:41PM
Hello! I'm a marine geologist/geophysicist at GNS Science in Wellington, New Zealand. My research focuses on gas hydrates, fluid flow and seafloor geomorphology - currently working on the Hikurangi Margin. I think EarthArXiv is an awesome idea and think it is especially significant in areas where institutions don't have the funds to provide access to numerous publishers.
Deleted User Wed 30 Oct 2019 6:11AM
Warm welcome to all new members!
As I will leave the council, I want to say thanks and goodbye to everyone, was definitely a highlight to meet so many of you at this year's EGU!
Rebecca Williams Tue 29 Oct 2019 9:55AM
Hello to all the newcomers!
I've been on the EarthArXiv advisory council for about a year now. I'm a Senior Lecturer in Volcanology at the University of Hull. I like volcanic flows, open access and Twitter.
Leonardo Uieda Tue 29 Oct 2019 9:48AM
Hi everyone, I've been following EarthArXiv since the inception and I'm so happy this exists. I'm a geophysicist and just started a Lecturer position at the University of Liverpool, UK. I work mainly on gravity and magnetic inverse problems and develop a bunch of open-source software as well. More info at https://www.leouieda.com
James King Fri 25 Oct 2019 2:03PM
Hello,
As part of the original council I look forward to continue to promoting the arxiv.
I am an assistant prof at the Université de Montréal working on the effects of mineral aerosols on climate and ecosystems, mainly coming from fugitive emissions aka dust storms from present measurements/remote sensing, but also looking at these dynamics in past landscapes e.g., LGM using paleoclimatic models.
I am interested in exploring OA options for society level journals and return the power of the pen back these grassroots groups.
Stéphanie Girardclos Fri 25 Oct 2019 9:42AM
Hi all.
I was on the initial EarthArXiv Advisory Council and I'm very happy to continue promoting it. I re-introduce myself for the newcomers.
I'm a sedimentologist (Lecturer) at the University of Geneva working on modern sedimentary environments, mostly lakes. I use sediment cores, high resolution seismic data and multibeam echosounding. My favorite subjects are sublacustrine delta systems and canyons, sublacustrine mass-movements, event beds, and lake tsunamis. I'm also interested in Anthropocene questions.
I promote increased democracy and equity in academia and I like collaborative and Open Access initiatives.
Christopher Jackson Fri 25 Oct 2019 7:22AM
Hi Everyone! Thanks for joining the community. When my busy period of works finishes, which should be in a couple of weeks time, I'll organise a group call to answer any questions you may have. Thanks! chris
Olivier Pourret Fri 25 Oct 2019 6:25AM
Dear Bruce, dear all, nice to meet you all! what a great community! By the way, Bruce, could you tell us more on our role? what can we do as ambassador, moderator...? best
Samantha Teplitzky Wed 23 Oct 2019 3:37PM
Hi everyone! I have a new-ish role as Open Science Librarian at University of California, Berkeley, and subject liaison to the Dept of Earth & Planetary Science. I've worked in Earth/Geoscience librarianship for a while but am excited to be more active in promoting open workflows, particularly preprints!
Jesper Dramsch Tue 22 Oct 2019 7:33PM
Hey folks 👋. I'm currently finishing up my PhD at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) officially working in 4D seismics as I'm a geophysicist by trade. Realistically, I build neural networks and talk about machine learning all day though. Been a visiting scholar in Edinburgh at Heriot-Watt University this year and that was loads of fun. I do some Python teaching, consulting here and there, really like hackathons, collaboration, open science and source and all that jazz.
Twitter and Github are my just name and orcid is of course funky.
And if you're really bored, dramsch.net and the-geophysicist.com are mine.
I'm new to loomio, so please forgive my Noob-ness.
Stanislav Jelavic Tue 22 Oct 2019 6:19PM
Hi everyone! I'm a postdoc at the Globe Institute at the University of Copenhagen. I always like to introduce myself as a mineralogist but I've been told that my knowledge and skills are definitely better explained as geochemist. I'm interested in the interaction between organic compounds and minerals, mainly at the nano and molecular scale. Currently, I'm working on DNA-mineral interactions and how to prevent the spread of antibiotic resistance genes through soils and wastewater. Thanks for having me :)
Victor Venema Tue 22 Oct 2019 3:44PM
I was with EarthArXiv from the start, but am happy to re-introduce myself. I am a climate scientist from The Netherlands, working in Bonn, Germany. Currently I am working on a post-publication journal-independent peer review system. It should make it less important where to publish, in the end also archives would be fine, and thus breaks the power of the scientific publishers.

Help getting this going is welcome.
Leonie Peti Tue 22 Oct 2019 8:38AM
Hi all - I'm currently finishing up my PhD at the University of Auckland on maar lake sediment. I focus mainly on stratigraphy and geochronology with some palaeoclimate and tephra work mixed in. I'm really excited about becoming a part of the community.
brandon Tue 22 Oct 2019 8:26AM
cool. New peeps!!
Noel Brizuela Mon 21 Oct 2019 6:30PM
Hello! I'm a 3rd-year PhD student at Scripps Institution of Oceanography and very happy to join this community project. My research focuses on oceanic internal waves and their role in climate and sediment transport. Aside from that, I do some work on theoretical urban epidemiology.

Elif Oral Mon 21 Oct 2019 5:56PM
Hi all! I'm a post-doctoral researcher in France, at Geoazur Institute. I seriously love the philosophy of EarthArXiv, and very happy to be involved in the community here!
I've been working on numerical modeling of rupture dynamics, seismic wave propagation and nonlinear behavior of geomaterials. In general, I'm interested in learning more about earthquake physics and seismic hazard assessment. Currently I'm a visitor at Caltech. Twitter: @elifo_alpha
Shashank P M Mon 21 Oct 2019 1:02PM
Hey! Happy to be here. I'm an 4th year undergrad in Geology at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Roorkee. My work so far has been based on Geochronology, Stable Isotopes, Himalayan Geology, and a little dabble with planetary stuff.
I was a visitor at ANU for 3 months this year.
