About a decade ago, I formally retired from Lancaster University (albeit retaining an emeritus position and still producing the occasional paper). In that time, I have been able to pursue my interests in the history of hydrology but also devote more time to my other passion which is landscape photography, especially images of water. As a hydrologist, I do understand that to spend my spare time p ...[Read More]
The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation — the AMOC — has become one of the most discussed elements of the climate system. It is often portrayed as a looming tipping point, a potential disruptor of European climate, and a symbol of the uncertainties that still surround climate projections. We spoke with Didier Swingedouw, a leading researcher in ocean–climate interactions from the CNRS and ...[Read More]
No matter who you are or what your background is, if you attended EGU26, it is very likely that the EGU EDI Committee did something that you found valuable or helpful.The Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Committee was formed in 2018, and has since then been working with EGU to promote its core values. Let’s break down how EDI shaped the experience of the latest General Assembly and what we can ex ...[Read More]
Academia is often imagined as a space driven by merit, curiosity, and scientific collaboration. Still behind publications, conferences, and research achievements, many women in STEM continue to navigate environments shaped by subtle exclusion, normalized inequalities, and power imbalances that are not always openly discussed. In Earth Sciences, where collaboration and field-based research are fund ...[Read More]

Introduction Human-caused climate change is increasing the frequency of extreme weather events around the world, and Europe is no exception. These events typically last from a few days to several weeks or even months. Using climate models and reanalysis products, scientists are studying how extreme weather events will evolve and where they are likely to become more frequent and intense in a warmin ...[Read More]
Hello Mavi – congratulations on your appointment as Early Career Scientist Union Representative! Could you introduce yourself to our readers? Thank you so much, Simon! I’m a physicist by training, but my path has evolved at the intersection of the physical sciences and the social sciences. I started in theoretical physics and today I work on disaster risk, climate hazards, and science–policy ...[Read More]
At the edge of the world, a voice tries to make itself heard, a whisper slipping between the threads of an unstable reality. In the remote lands of Svalbard, a few hundred miles from the North Pole, lie millennia-old entities, relics of a disappearing species. They murmur in a language that humans today no longer know how to decipher. And yet, it is in this deafness to the voices around them that ...[Read More]

Laura is a UKRI Future Leaders Fellow and Professor of Water Resources and Environmental Geochemistry at the University of Manchester. Laura is also the project lead of the AQUAROAD Programme on groundwater quality in the Global South. Ajmal is a Cookson Awardee PhD scholar, and he’s work ...[Read More]
The Asian continent has fascinated the world for at least 3,000 years with its music, food, and discoveries, as well as its breathtaking landscapes. Most of these incredible landscapes are formed by mountains that can be considered geologically “recent” (such as the Cenozoic formation of the Himalayas). However, there are also ancient terrains, pre-dating the Mesozoic, that pose intrig ...[Read More]
