Congratulations to @HrvojeTkalcic on such an outstanding achievement! It has been a great pleasure working with you as a scientist and getting to know you as a person.
Prof Hrvoje Tkalčić FAA (@HrvojeTkalcic,@ourANU) has been elected a Fellow of the Academy for his pioneering work on the internal structures of Earth and other planets. Additionally, his contributions to analysing seismic sources—including marsquakes—and refining seismogram analysis techniques have been instrumental in improving the accuracy of theoretical models. #FellowsAA

Inspired by watching the Apollo missions on TV, Prof Louis-Noël Moresi FAA (@LouisMoresi) knew—despite their dodgy TV reception—that science was his future. "That did it for me: I just wanted to know all about planets and space and the magic of discovering new things." He now creates open-source software to expand our understanding of geology and tectonics. Using computational physics, he is helping transform the accessibility of quantitative modelling across the Earth sciences. #FellowsAA

What are we learning today? 🧐
We are learning two codes (available in Github) for interfacing between generic inference algorithms and specific geoscience problems and another way around.
- CoFi
- Espresso
At @anuearthscience 🌏 !!
