Hello Martin! Welcome to GeoTalk. Could you briefly introduce yourself to our readers? Dear EGU Community! My name is Martin, and since 2004 I have had the honour of being the Managing Director of Copernicus. By training, I am a hydrologist, but even before I graduated, I was drawn into the EGU General Assembly in …[Read More]
Part 2 – the regional case In our previous post, we discussed global scale phenomena, showing how the Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) constellation is the ultimate instrument for monitoring the Earth as a whole: tracking plate tectonics, defining the planet’s absolute size, and measuring variations of its gravity field. Essentially, the big questions of …[Read More]
The General Assembly is the nucleus around which EGU’s community gathers and connects, providing a week of opportunity to meet new people and reaffirm old bonds. Progress within science and its impact on society rises from the confluence of ideas and a diversity of voices; to facilitate meeting and discussion at the Assembly, #EGU26 offers …[Read More]
When we think about what drives air-sea gas exchange (such as CO2), wind usually gets all the credit. Strong winds stir the surface, enhance turbulence, and speed up gas transfer. But a new study in Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics shows there is more to the story: CO2 exchange does not just follow the wind, it …[Read More]
Greenhouse gas emissions from urban waterways Every field scientist knows to never go to the field without ample supplies of duct tape and cable ties. We utilised this notion daily within the University of Bristol’s Watershed Carbon Lab team, as we undertook a 2-year long field campaign across the UK, Europe and China collecting data …[Read More]

by Julius Jara Muñoz, Professor of Engineering Geology at the University of Applied Sciences Biberach (Hochschule Biberach), Germany. Email: jara@hochschule-bc.de, website: https://www.hochschule-biberach.de/kontakt/julius-jara-munoz. “Reproducibility is a cornerstone of the scientific method, yet measuring ancient coastlines has long depended on expert judgment – until now”. Coastlines are highly dynamic systems controlled by sea-level changes and surface deformation. Over thousands …[Read More]
