We are excited to announce the 20th edition of Geodesy Campfire – Share Your Research in July. The Geodesy EGU Campfire Events “Share Your Research” give (early career) researchers the chance to talk about their work. We have two exciting talks by our guest speakers, Pierre Sakic and Iwona Kudłacik. Below, you can find the details of the topics awaiting us. We will have time to network after the p ...[Read More]
Imagine determining the position of a point on Earth with millimeter precision using radio signals from celestial objects billions of light-years away. This may sound like science fiction, but it is exactly what Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) allows scientists to do. What is VLBI? Long before satellites and digital maps, people looked to the sky and used celestial objects—most commonly t ...[Read More]
Geodesy is fundamental to understanding our dynamic planet. From monitoring sea-level rise and glacier melt to maintaining precise terrestrial reference frames for GNSS and Earth observation, geodesy provides the scientific backbone for many disciplines represented within the EGU and beyond. Despite its importance, geodesy often remains invisible outside the scientific community. Even within geosc ...[Read More]
Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) are best known for positioning, navigation, and monitoring Earth surface motions with high precision (see two of our previous posts on GNSS here and here). But did you know that the same satellite signals can also provide information about snow, soil moisture, or sea level, without installing any additional instruments? This idea lies at the heart of GNSS ...[Read More]
