Welcome to the first post in our new GeoLog series on communicating uncertainty! Written by students from an interdisciplinary course at the University of Tübingen led by Dr. Solmaz Mohadjer, this series explores how reframing uncertainty as a strength can enhance science communication. In this opening piece, Berenice Schramm and Benni Suchalla examine one of …[Read More]
In 2025, Climate of the Past celebrated its 20th anniversary. Over the past two decades, the journal has become a leading open-access publication in paleoclimatology. It provides a platform for research into how the Earth’s climate has changed over time, and how these changes can inform our understanding of the current climate system. To celebrate …[Read More]
As we left EGU26 behind with record participation, it was amazing to see increased interest in science-policy sessions from the scientific community. Thanks to all panellists who contributed to the stimulating discussions, and to all participants for igniting them! Below is a look into some of the key themes emerged from the #science4policy sessions at EGU26. Innovation and emerging …[Read More]
What good is groundbreaking Earth and space science if it never breaks through the laboratory walls and digital libraries? Without skilled journalists, our peer-reviewed papers risk gathering digital dust, and remain isolated from the public policy and societal awareness they are meant to inform. This is why we need science journalists, as they have the …[Read More]
The European Geosciences Union isn’t all about the General Assembly, but delivers opportunities to learn, develop and network all year long! With many driven and developed by our volunteers in our committees and working groups, our initiatives cover a breadth of topics and formats, including training, funding, and more. The list below covers just some …[Read More]
Talking to people about their work is always an EGU highlight for me. Being able to nerd out about rivers, rocks, big research vessels crossing the Arctic, maps, mountains anywhere in the solar system, or even beyond? Yes, please! However, while those topics are the things of dreams for me (and I dare to say …[Read More]
At EGU we take our science seriously, but we also value creativity and the role it plays in all aspects of being a researcher, from designing your study to science communication! The EGU26 General Assembly offers plenty of avenues for creativity in every way, shape and form. If you’re keen to indulge your creative side …[Read More]
Most people spend a lot of time and effort making their presentation engaging and impactful, but how much time do you spend making sure it is accessible!?

Vienna – the city of music! Of Mozart and Mahler, Beethoven and Brahms – and of the 2026 Eurovision Song Contest! In this spirit, we invite you to a music-filled evening to wrap up EGU26 and let your hair down. An evening where geoscience meets music and art, and where we celebrate the creativity, diversity, …[Read More]
After a big success last year, GeoCinema is back for EGU26! As many of you know, doing science is very rarely just about the research, but also involves sharing that research in several forms and formats. For many talented researchers this means using films. Either working with a film-maker or creating something themselves, several of …[Read More]
