First of all, we would like to thank Giulia Consuma for her amazing …[Read More]
Summer is not over yet, so today I prepared a list of science YouTube channels to check out during the lazy summer afternoons. Scientists and teachers love to share their research, experiments and insights with anyone who is willing to listen, so there are many fantastic science channels to watch. These people work hard to …[Read More]
The history of hydrology stretches back millennia: from the engineers of ancient high cultures over scientific pioneers like Da Vinci and Pallisy to modern groundbreaking modellers. However, so far, few hydrologists have worked to systematically record the history of their discipline – especially in its more recent decades. That is a gap that the History …[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 roundup. For July, the Divisions we are featuring are: Earth Magnetism & Rock Physics (EMRP) and Seismology (SM). They are served by the journals: Solid Earth …[Read More]
by Emma Lodes, PhD student, GFZ-Potsdam (Germany) Twitter: @LodesEmma | email: lodes@gfz-potsdam.de Research in Earth Science starts with the spark of an idea, and is then often challenged by issues with access, temporal or spatial scaling, lack of knowledge in specific domains, or simply road bumps in our lives. As Early Career Scientists …[Read More]
Science is a vital part of the policymaking process. It enables decision-makers to better understand the policy options that they have and the potential consequences of any actions or inaction. While it is just one factor that policymakers should consider during their decision-making process, it is an important one! This month’s GeoPolicy blog post will …[Read More]
Navigating the challenge of making new friends in a new place -well, thanks to academia…- can be as complex as decoding the Earth’s geological history. This time Bob is demanding our knowledge for: New academic job. New town. New life. It was fairly easy to make friends when I was young but how do I …[Read More]
Hi everyone! We are now well into the summer, and I can look back at a year of being an ECS Seismology representative, and at the incredible EGU GA this year. It was great to have the posters back this year: I had a poster and no amount of water could have saved me from …[Read More]
