WE ROCK — The Earth Sciences Media. Where Earth Sciences Meet Society. Geology is everywhere — in the water you drink, in your phone, in the disasters that make the headlines. Yet geoscientists remain invisible. We make Earth Sciences accessible to everyone. Every episode, we sit down with geoscientists — geologists, volcanologists, geophysicists, hydrogeologists, geochemists and more — for honest, unfiltered conversations about their work, their journey and why it matters to all of us.

    WAR ZONES. AI. SATELLITES. WATER SCIENCE. — SAEED MHANNA | GEOCAREERS EP. 04

    During the Syrian war, millions fled. The fields were abandoned. And from space, the ground started to rise — a silent signal that the aquifers were refilling. Saeed Mhanna detected it from Switzerland, using satellites.Saeed Mhanna | Hydrogeologist | PhD, University of Neuchâtel | Postdoctoral Researcher, EAWAG Dübendorf━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━In this fourth episode of WE ROCK GeoCareers, I sit down with Saeed Mhanna, Lebanese hydrogeologist and freshly minted PhD.He started in petroleum studies in Beirut — because Lebanon needed oil. He ended up drilling wells for Syrian refugees instead. Then he came to Switzerland to do a PhD on how war affects groundwater — using satellites and AI to read what's happening underground in conflict zones he couldn't physically visit. His paper went viral on Al Arabiya. He won Ma Thèse en 180 Secondes — in French, as a non-French speaker. And now he's a postdoc at EAWAG, studying how mining affects water resources worldwide.In this episode:— From petroleum dreams to drilling wells for Syrian refugees— How a satellite detects groundwater recovery in a war zone— The Kakhovka dam disaster in Ukraine — and the wetlands that came back— His paper going viral on Al Arabiya — and being misrepresented— "Touching grass" — what happens when a researcher leaves academia and goes on Facebook— Winning MT180 in French as a non-French speaker— Mining vs water: the dilemma of resources we can't live without— What kept him going during the hardest moments of his PhD— His final message: find hope even in the darkest places━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━SAEED MHANNALinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saeed-mhanna-154569a1/EAWAG: eawag.chCHYN UniNE: unine.ch/chynMT180 UNINE : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEOd6gZpXUcMT180 Suisse : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSkC-qlQzJA ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━WE ROCKYouTube: @werockgeomediaSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/033pzISIs9qaFcxsXkQAu9Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/we-rock-geomedia/id1896890768YouTube Music: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAoKvUnH4Uqbt2-5ZuROWdYApP5V3PLGZAmazon Music: https://music.amazon.fr/podcasts/6331c5cb-3724-4252-bc61-52ce3154c065/we-rock-geomediaInstagram: @werockgeomediaLinkedIn: WE ROCK GeomediaTikTok: @werockgeomediaFacebook: WE ROCK GeomediaEmail: werock.geomedia@gmail.comWhere Earth Sciences Meet Society.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━CREDITSAuthor, producer, director, filming & publishing: Sam-Bien SogleProduction assistance: Victoria GarciaSOURCES IMAGESPhotos MT180 UniNe : Mario CafisoPhotos MT180 Suisse : Alain HerzogVideos & Photos Kakhovka : Reuters, BBC, ACTI-Framework : Saeed Mahnna━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━#GeoCareers #WEROCK #Hydrogeology #EarthSciences #Syria #WaterSciences #Podcast #Geosciences #RemoteSensing #WaterCrisis

    FROM OIL AND GAS FIELDS TO CLASSROOMS. ONE GEOLOGIST'S JOURNEY - ANDREA MOSCARIELLO | EP.3

    🛢️ He spent over ten years with Shell — in oil and gas industry in the North Sea, in the Netherland and Aberdeen. Then he walked away from it all to join the University of Geneva. In this episode of WE ROCK GeoCareers, Andrea Moscariello, Full Professor of Sedimentary Geology and Geo-energy at UNIGE, shares the story of a career built on chance, opportunity, and a few difficult choices. From glacial deposits in the Dolomites to oil reservoirs in Algeria, Libya and Saudi Arabia. From Shell to SGS. From consulting back to the lecture hall. And now — geothermal energy in Geneva, and the geology of the future CERN tunnel. He also answers the WE ROCK signature questions — including which rock he most resembles. His answer: a diamicton. Heterogeneous, different origins, solid matrix — but add a little water, and it trembles. 🎙️ WE ROCK GeoCareers — Where Earth Sciences Meet Society. 📺 Also available on YouTube: @werockgeomedia📸 Instagram: @werockgeomedia💼 LinkedIn: WE ROCK Geomedia✉️ Contact: werock.geomedia@gmail.com🔗 Linktree: linktr.ee/werock.geomedia

    SHE CAN READ ANCIENT OCEAN TEMPERATURES FROM MICROFOSSILS. — CLÉMENTINE COLPAERT | EP. 2

    If a dinosaur ever stepped into the water, she could tell you the exact temperature of that water — 150 million years later. In this second episode of WE ROCK GeoCareers, Sam-Bien Sogle sits down with Clémentine Colpaert, micropalaeontologist at the University of Geneva. Her field of study: microscopic fossils called foraminifera, sometimes smaller than a grain of sand, that recorded the exact ocean temperatures from the age of the dinosaurs in their shells. Her path: a degree in France, a PhD completed in Russian in Siberia, a postdoc in China, another in Germany — and now, Geneva. In this episode: — Her journey: from Lille to Siberia, from China to Germany, to Geneva — Micropalaeontology explained simply — How a microscopic fossil tells the story of the climate 150 million years ago — Her work on foraminifera from Normandy and Tibet — The real cost of international mobility in research — The truth about academic careers — The WE ROCK signature question: which foraminifera species feels most like her? ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WE ROCK GeoCareers — Where Earth Sciences Meet Society.
