The Neurodivergent Guide to the EGU General Assembly: Tips and tricks to improve your experience
What is neurodiversity? Neurodiversity is the concept that individuals experience the world, process information, function and communicate in diverse ways; there is no ‘default’ way of thinking. As a framework it supports the self-advocacy of people who face obstacles due to their needs not being considered in the design of environments and systems. Such individuals …[Read More]
When a major climate event goes almost unnoticed: the elusive 8.2 ka signal in southern France stalagmites
Around 8,200 years ago, the climate of the Northern Hemisphere experienced an abrupt disturbance. In Greenland ice cores, the signal is unmistakable: a rapid drop in temperatures, followed by a gradual return to previous conditions. This episode, which lasted about 150 years, is known as the 8.2 ka event (“ka” meaning thousand years before …[Read More]
Exploring Earth’s interior with analogue models: The case of slow earthquakes
Have you ever heard of “analogue modelling”? In solid Earth science, directly observing the Earth’s interior is challenging, and the analogue modelling approach often overcomes this limitation by using alternative systems analogous to natural phenomena. By identifying fundamental mechanisms in these tractable systems, we can apply physical scaling laws to understand processes deep within the …[Read More]

Geodesists on Tour: Circumnavigating Greenland by Helicopter
Greenland, the world’s largest island, has one of the most challenging environments for geodetic measurements. Maintaining GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems) stations here isn’t just about precision – it’s about ensuring data continuity in an area that’s constantly moving. This is the behind-the-scenes story of a 15,000 km journey around Greenland: five weeks of …[Read More]
