How to organize an EGU24 Session as a newcomer? A guide for early career scientists.

Have you ever thought about organizing an EGU session instead of just attending them? Until September 14th you have the chance to do just that!  It can sound a bit intimidating, especially if you’ve never done it before. But don’t worry – here’s everything you have to know.   Find a Topic and Co-Conveners First off, you need to settle on a topic and find your co-conveners, i.e. the team who ...[Read More]

Organizing a Workshop as an ECS: Lessons learned from “Cryosphere-groundwater interactions: a missing link in mountain water research”

Plenary discussion on the outcomes of one of the group discussions on “where does the water go in the glacierized landscape”?

Despite the importance of mountains for downstream water supply, there are large gaps in our scientific understanding of how snow and ice meltwater travels through the landscape, specifically which flowpaths meltwater takes below the surface. Plus, existing knowledge is scattered throughout various sub-disciplines of mountain hydrology: glaciology, snow science, hydrogeology, and surface hydrology ...[Read More]

Wrapping up EGU23: A Hydrologist’s Look Back

Wrapping up EGU23: A Hydrologist’s Look Back

Summarising such a week is almost an impossible task. First, it is worth highlighting that, on-site, we were back to a format with oral presentations, PICOs, and posters. Virtual participants could join the oral sessions and the PICO pitches via Zoom. Virtual boards were also available for the online poster sessions and PICOs. The format of 10-min oral presentations (questions included) was a chal ...[Read More]
