Each month we feature specific Divisions of EGU and during the monthly GeoRoundup we put the journals that publish science from those Divisions at the top of the Highlights roundup. For September, however, all the EGU Divisions are in the spotlight as we celebrate EGU’s 20 year anniversary. So read on to discover the papers published this month, and while you’re at it – join us in saying Happy Birthday EGU!
