One of our closest neighbors in the universe, the red planet, has long intrigued geoscientists. Mars has been the destination for multiple spacecraft missions. Two rovers, Curiosity and Perseverance, are still exploring the planet as of 2025. This week, let us go on a short tour around Mars and show a little love to this fascinating planet. We will start our tour by looking at the global topograph ...[Read More]
1. Introduction Severe natural phenomena of geophysical, hydrological, and meteorological origins cause natural hazards that negatively impact human activity or the environment. Many people living on the earth suffer from natural hazards every year. Although we can predict some natural hazards (e.g., typhoons) in near real-time, forecasts of the geophysical natural hazards such as large earthquake ...[Read More]

If this sounds like something you’d like to get involved in, we encourage you to get in touch ...[Read More]
Each month we feature specific Divisions of EGU and during the monthly GeoRoundup we put the journals that publish science from those Divisions at the top of the Highlights section. For January, the divisions we are featuring are Tectonics and Structural Geology (TS), Geochemistry, Mineralogy, Petrology & Volcanology (GMPV), and Earth Magnetism & Rock Physics (EMRP). They are served by the ...[Read More]

Viktor, welcome to GeoTalk! Can you tell us a bit about your current research focus? My current research is on the defossilization of our energy system with a strong focus on the roles of forests and soils in this context. I was originally trained in forestry and my research is still tightly connected with this topic, but it has widened to also include aspects of carbon sequestration, sustainable ...[Read More]

We’re looking for a new ECS representative, as well as team members, to coordinate social media, our newsletter, online campfires, our podcast series, and to join our fant ...[Read More]
Is it a good day to have a meltdown? It’s cold and there is sun outside, neh maybe not. Procrastinating even having a meltdown. But this audience doesn’t even let me do that. Today, we’re answering Kai’s question: Why do we consider leaving academia a failure? Dear Kai, Sorry, the question ended up in my spam folder, otherwise, I’m pretty sure that I wouldn’t ignore poking the hornet’s ...[Read More]
