Ultraperipheral European departments like Mayotte are developing regions, often disproportionately exposed to natural hazards and struggling to mitigate the impacts of climate change. The eye of cyclone Chido, the most violent storm to hit Mayotte island in 90 years, engulfed the French Department on the 14th of December 2024. The extensive destruction and massive loss of life ranks this event as ...[Read More]
As 2024 draws to a close, we reflect on a year filled with groundbreaking discoveries and inspiring collaborations in mineralogy, geochemistry, petrology, and volcanology. This year, our understanding of Earth’s intricate systems has deepened significantly. We widen our scopes approaching mineralogical and petrological problems with new methods such as machine learning and deep learning tech ...[Read More]
Are you ready to dive into the fascinating mutual symbiosis of science, culture, and education? Be ready to be inspired by the blog editor-in-chief of our division blog, Rebekka Steffen, who is a researcher at Lantmäteriet in Sweden, where she specializes on glacial isostatic adjustment—think rising land, ancient ice sheets, and Earth’s stress fields! But there’s more to Rebekka than cutti ...[Read More]
You are certainly aware of the continued efforts of a group of hydrologists, with the lead of Keith Beven, to shed light on the history of hydrology, including the History of Hydrology Wiki . Looking back to those who shaped our science, the questions they addressed and those that remain open is essential to understand the role of hydrology in earth system sciences, in the development of field res ...[Read More]
The challenges in hydraulic engineering are increasing due to the growing threat of floods and heavy rainfall events caused by climate change (as experienced several times in Europe in recent years) on the one hand and the more frequent low water situations and the associated requirements for ecological enhancement of water bodies, on the other hand. In this context, reliable estimates of the hydr ...[Read More]
When another year comes to an end, it is time for reflection. In the context of natural hazards, it is essential to consider the challenges posed to societies, what went well, what could have been done better, and how we could create a more resilient world. Just before Big Ben strikes 12 times, marking the moment of a new day and year, and the fireworks are set to begin, our blog editors share th ...[Read More]
The EGU Geochemistry, Mineralogy, Petrology and Volcanology ECS committee is currently looking for early career scientists to present at and attend our monthly online talk series (EGU Campfires). The EGU Campfires are a free one-hour online seminar consisting of three 10-12-minute talks. These quick-fire presentations give you an opportunity to share your work in a relaxed and friendly environmen ...[Read More]
The British Hydrological Society (BHS) is a registered charity and is almost entirely run by volunteers who have chosen to give their time to serve the hydrological community. Founded in 1983, the BHS is a Specialist Knowledge Society of the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE). Its overall aim is to provide interest, good practice, and scholarships in all aspects of hydrology. It also wants to s ...[Read More]
Measuring ice surface elevation changes with satellite laser altimeters flying hundreds of kilometres above Earth tells us where the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets are thinning or thickening and how much they contribute to sea level rise. Beyond that though, it can also reveal hidden activity of subglacial lakes filling and draining beneath the ice and meltwater rivers flowing ou ...[Read More]
