Earthquakes! The epidemiologists have been in the limelight recently, so it was nice to have many in eastern Australia turn their attention to geology briefly last week. And as you can see, AuScope seismologists and AuScope instruments were critical to the national effort to understand and locate this somewhat unique event in recent and recorded history.

Dear AuScopers, I hope you are all well, feel safe, and are adjusting to the many changes in this pandemic. Despite the challenges, we feel especially well connected with our national geoscience community and are pleased to bunker down and tackle some of the quieter projects, and even take time to contemplate the world a little differently.

Every quarter when I sit down to write this update, I think I start by saying ‘well it has been a busy 3 months’. This quarter I think it is fair to say that it has been that on steroids! Sitting at the top of the list is the AuScope investment planning process that many of you have been involved in. Thank you again to those who have participated!

I write this in between the AuScope field, laboratory and digital infrastructure planning workshops, as we hone our capability to address national geoscience research challenges over the coming decade. 

The discussion around the research challenges relating to water, minerals, energy and geohazards has been particularly interesting, and we’re seeing new synergies across our field arise. It's an exciting time.

It seems that each time I write one of these I start out by saying what an exciting quarter it has been. That is once again the case!
