Help us celebrate excellence in science journalism: Time for nominations for the 2027 EGU Angela Croome Award!

What good is groundbreaking Earth and space science if it never breaks through the laboratory walls and digital libraries? Without skilled journalists, our peer-reviewed papers risk gathering digital dust, and remain isolated from the public policy and societal awareness they are meant to inform.

The AI Revolution in Mining: Overhyped, Understood and Absolutely Unavoidable

The AI Revolution in Mining: Overhyped, Understood and Absolutely Unavoidable

Artificial Intelligence has dominated the world across various sectors. However, it is yet to be decided whether the use of AI in Mineral Exploration (and more broadly in Geosciences) will diminish the expertise and know-how of Geologists or instead provide a valuable tool for the years ahead. In this week’s blog, Dr. Nicholas Vafeas shares …[Read More]

They are more than a pleasant coastal wind, as they are critical for easing summer heat stress, dispersing pollutants, and triggering convection (the rapid upward movement of warm, moist air), sometimes leading to severe …[Read More]
