We are excited to announce the 20th edition of Geodesy Campfire – Share Your Research in July. The Geodesy EGU Campfire Events “Share Your Research” give (early career) researchers the chance to talk about their work. We have two exciting talks by our guest speakers, Pierre Sakic and Iwona Kudłacik. Below, you can find the details of the topics awaiting us. We will have time to network after the p ...[Read More]

Five ways to improve your interdisciplinary communication skills
Oh, but you should know that… It is a short sentence, often spoken with good intentions. Yet in interdisciplinary conversations, it can bring a discussion to a complete halt. The moment someone says, “Oh, but you should know that,” they assume that what is obvious in their discipline must be obvious to everyone else. Hearing this phrase repeatedly in scientific discussions made me realise how muc ...[Read More]

Taking Pride in our planet: Protecting oceans for queer and trans survival
In Spring of 2025, just as I was preparing to release the Queer Climate Justice StoryMap I had been building for two years, I received a difficult email from my lead community collaborator, an LGBTQ+ foundation, describing the devastating legal and financial situation the newly inaugurated Trump administration had put them in. We decided to set the project to private to protect the queer and trans ...[Read More]

Melting ice shelves in ocean models: an idealised model intercomparison project
Antarctic ice shelves melt from beneath where they contact the ocean, but how well do ocean models simulate this process? Building on several decades of model development, a recent model intercomparison study compared ice shelf-ocean models from modelling groups around the world with the same, idealised benchmark configuration. From this effort, we can learn how current models perform, and how we ...[Read More]

From Quasars to Coordinates: How VLBI Measures Earth’s Shape and Motion
Imagine determining the position of a point on Earth with millimeter precision using radio signals from celestial objects billions of light-years away. This may sound like science fiction, but it is exactly what Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) allows scientists to do. What is VLBI? Long before satellites and digital maps, people looked to the sky and used celestial objects—most commonly t ...[Read More]

The day I realised I had nothing to offer teachers: The story behind Almanac of Geoscience experiments
For more than a decade, I have spent a large part of my time not only doing research in planetary science, but also visiting schools, science festivals, public events, and talking to children, teachers, and everyone interested in geosciences. During these outreach activities I repeatedly encountered the same problem. People were genuinely curious about volcanoes, earthquakes, plate tectonics, or t ...[Read More]
