If you have not yet submitted your abstract for this year’s General Assembly (GA2026), do not forget to submit as early as possible this week (instructions here), this avoids any last minute technical challenges. . You can submit only one abstract (except for invited speakers or if you submit to an EOS-session). For your hydrology-related research, the call-for-abstracts programme proposes t ...[Read More]
To kick off the New Year, we have invited a guest author, Takafumi Maruishi, a researcher in the Research Division for Volcanic Disasters / Center for Volcano Research Promotion, National Research Institute for Earth Science and Disaster Resilience, Japan. He explains the scaling law of lava dome growth and its physical insight. Effusive eruptions—when magma reaches the surface and is extruded as ...[Read More]
Building the Earth in a sandbox The Main Ethiopian Rift stretches for hundreds of kilometers through Ethiopia, a massive fracture where Africa is slowly tearing apart to birth a new ocean. However, the processes driving this continental breakup remain hidden deep beneath layers of volcanic rock and millions of years of geological history. Today, in a laboratory in the heart of the be ...[Read More]
Have you ever heard that we can “weigh” water on Earth from space? Since 2002, the GRACE and GRACE-FO satellite missions have been mapping month-to-month variations of the Earth’s gravity field. Because gravity responds to mass, these data can reveal how water is redistributed at the surface and in the subsurface. The result is a global time series of terrestrial water storage anomalies (TWSA)—h ...[Read More]
Dr. Dominik Stolzenburg is a chemist in atmospheric physics at TU Wien, specializing in aerosol science and air quality. His work focuses on how ultrafine particles form, transform, and affect both climate systems and human health — especially in cities. Through field measurements, modeling, and data analysis, he explores how human and natural emissions interact, helping policymakers shape cleaner ...[Read More]
38 years ago, representatives from 46 countries around the globe came together to find a solution to the climate crisis. Alerted to an issue discovered by scientists 13 years previously, the representatives of these nations worked together swiftly and with purpose to create an international treaty to combat a major environmental issue. The treaty was signed by all 46 participant nations and would ...[Read More]

The European Geosciences Union hosts a busy digital programme throughout the year, from seminar-style Campfire events with online networking to free, half-day workshops funded by EGU and organised by our volunteer Committees. Sitting between the two are our webinars: free, community-driven events which are presented live with the recording published later on the EGU Youtube channel. Webinars are a ...[Read More]
Several major holiday periods are coming up in the next months, and for many people this means taking some time off. But for academics, stepping away from work can be very difficult. At EGU25, we explored this challenge in a short course organized by the EGU “Life-Career Wellness” working group, where scientists shared their experiences (and strategies). In this post, we summarize the main points ...[Read More]
