My name is Mika McKinnon.
I trained as a physicist and geophysicist, with an emphasis on fluid dynamics. My research has touched on the beginning and end of the universe, the orbital dynamics of planetary formation, stability of hot spots on Mars, and catastrophic landslides on Earth. I work as a field geophysicist for a small consulting company; we do just about everything, everywhere, eventually.
I am also a science consultant in the science fiction film industry, a topic discussed in more depth at SpaceMika.
Hi Mika,
After viewing your blog, I am excited to invite you to join a non-profit geology-based website, created by the IUGS commision on Tectonics and Structural Geology (TecTask), known as Outcropedia. This unique website is an online public database initiated by three structural geologists dedicated to fieldwork; Cees Passchier, Mark Jessell and Hermann Lebitt.
Outcropedia is an unique online database designed to allow users to upload and view extraordinary outcrops around the world. It depends on the submission of data by its users. We welcome you to sign up and add your favorite, most beautiful outcrops to the collection!

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Best Regards,
Rebecca Harris
