The joy of collecting snow meltwater: a problem-solving hunt for meltwater in Northern Finland

The joy of collecting snow meltwater: a problem-solving hunt for meltwater in Northern Finland

We know that climate change is affecting many aspects of what we have considered “stable” throughout a long period of modern times. One of many impacted and changing factors is snow and thereby also snow meltwater. One way to study meltwater is to trace it by the usage of stable water isotope signals and we plan to use it by asking: Are we underestimating the portions of snow meltwater in differen ...[Read More]

For many talented researchers this means using films. Either working with a film-maker or creating something themselves, several of our EGU24 attendees submitted wonderful films this year, from science ...[Read More]

Geomythology. Chimera: the lion, the goat, the snake and the flaming gas vents

Geomythology. Chimera: the lion, the goat, the snake and the flaming gas vents

Once upon a time in Lycia there was a land of fire, which burned so bright the light was visible by sailors navigating on the Mare Lycium, who were using the fires as a natural lighthouse. “Mount Chimaera in the country of Phaselis is on fire, and indeed burns with a flame that does not die by day or night”; those were the words of Pliny the Elder in his Naturalis Historia (2.110). Ancient Lycia i ...[Read More]
