Every year on 21 June, the global scientific community celebrates World Hydrology Day to highlight the importance of water sciences play in sustainable resource management and natural hazard mitigation. Historically, human efforts to protect and manage freshwater have suffered from a blind spot. While we can easily measure a river’s flow at a specific gauging station, predicting how an untou ...[Read More]
This interview is part of an ongoing series exploring the evolving role of interdisciplinarity across the geosciences. As environmental challenges grow more complex, addressing them requires not only disciplinary expertise but also meaningful collaboration and innovation across fields, methodologies, and communities. In each conversation, I ask Division Presidents to reflect on how cross-divisiona ...[Read More]
Pride month arrives this year against a backdrop of institutional irony. In the United States, federal research funding has been thoroughly weaponised and forced a massive scientific brain drain across the Atlantic. In Europe, a multi-million-euro effort to capture that exiled talent is underway, even as Europe’s own domestic politics fracture along the exact same ideological fault lines. Fo ...[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 skills to take complex scientific results an ...[Read More]
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 section. For May, we are not featuring any particular divisions, but an ensemble of all the highlights of this month instead. Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics Beyond discrete stratocumulus regimes: a ternary continuum of morph ...[Read More]
As we immerse ourselves in our 20th Viennese General Assembly EGU26, the volume of climate models and atmospheric projections can be quite overwhelming, to say the least. While our EGU geoscientific community is excellent at observing the planet, a persistent challenge remains in communicating that massive planetary data into tools that a local council, a commercial farmer, or an urban planner can ...[Read More]
The latest NASA Juno briefing was presented at EGU26 yesterday. Speakers introduced unprecedented results that not only deepened our understanding of Jupiter but also invited us to reflect on the future of scientific methodology. Whether you’re a space geek or a tech enthusiast, hop in, as we’re about to take you on an exploratory journey to learn about how neural networks, serendipitous cameras, ...[Read More]
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 section. For April, we are not featuring any particular divisions, but an ensemble of all the highlights of this month instead. Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics Quiet New Particle Formation is a significant aerosol source in t ...[Read More]
There are so many great events to participate in at EGU26 this year, in both on-site and virtual formats, that it can be very easy to feel overwhelmed. Whilst we encourage you to make good use of your Personal Programme to help organise your activities, we also reached out to several of EGU’s Committees that are responsible for specific other aspects of EGU’s activities, including the ...[Read More]
At EGU, we’re always looking for new ways to celebrate and amplify the voices of our community. For our second edition of the top Geolog post of the year in 2025, we selected the top five performing blog posts and held an internal vote within the EGU Executive Office to select the winner. We are now excited to announce that the award for the best blog of 2025 goes to (drumroll …) CJ Rajendra ...[Read More]
