Your top 3 must-reads for a new PhD student in hydrology

Your top 3 must-reads for a new PhD student in hydrology

Starting a PhD can feel overwhelming. Objectives and deadlines pile up, making it seem like you are juggling a thousand tasks at once. However, there are a few steps that do help you navigate this experience. One of the very first steps is to perform your literature review, which will serve as the foundation for your research. To help other early career scientists tackle this activity at the begin ...[Read More]

Halokinesis: the effect and importance of the most “liquid” rocks in geodynamics

Halokinesis: the effect and importance of the most “liquid” rocks in geodynamics

Evaporitic rocks possess unique properties that enable them to form crucial structures for petroleum systems. Salt basins are globally distributed, particularly along the Atlantic margins. Their thermal and mechanical properties can influence the Earth’s crust, altering structural styles and basin architecture, with significant implications for hydrocarbon exploration and geodynamic processes. How ...[Read More]

BeGEO scientists 2025: the 3rd conference of young Earth scientists in Italy

BeGEO scientists 2025: the 3rd conference of young Earth scientists in Italy

Born at the feet of active volcanoes, a group of young Earth scientists works for connecting colleagues in Italy and around the globe. One of the main challenges faced by those approaching the academic career for the first time is creating a network of known people with whom sharing scientific knowledge and maybe lay the foundations for new collaborations. Conferences are definitely the perfect pl ...[Read More]

HydroData Chronicles: Unveiling EStreams – A Comprehensive Hydro-Climatic Dataset for Europe

HydroData Chronicles: Unveiling EStreams – A Comprehensive Hydro-Climatic Dataset for Europe

We’re back to the HydroData Chronicles, where we enter into the exceptionally wonderful world—as massive as it is—of datasets about water phenomena, such as rivers and weather. Today, we focus on ΕStreams, a comprehensive dataset and catalogue of streamflow, hydro-climatic, and landscape data for Europe. This pioneering initiative fills the hydrological data availability gap, offering an inv ...[Read More]
