Behind the Poster: An Interview with EGU 2025 Outstanding Student Paper Presentation (OSPP) Award Winner Carlos Castillo-Rivera

Congratulations on receiving the OSPP Award 2025! What was your reaction when you found out you had been selected for the award? I was very surprised when I received the email, and I read it several times to make sure it was real. After that, I felt extremely proud of my work because I could see the evaluation scores, comments, and recommendations from the judges. Their feedback confirmed that my ...[Read More]

The pulsed rise of the Nahuelbuta Range: How glaciers indirectly built a mountain in Patagonia

The pulsed rise of the Nahuelbuta Range: How glaciers indirectly built a mountain in Patagonia

Forearc ranges are a striking example of how tectonic processes shape our planet. The Nahuelbuta Range in southern Chile is one of such settings. This week, Ambrosio Vega-Ruiz from the GFZ Helmholtz Centre for Geosciences, Germany, is telling us the story of this remarkable range, exploring how climate feedback can influence tectonic uplift across coastal forearcs. Tectonic uplift before tectonic ...[Read More]

Could the Chilean Altiplano host natural hydrogen for the energy transition?

The contribution from Sergio León-Ríos, Associate Researcher at the Advanced Mining Technology Center (AMTC) at the University of Chile, where he does seismology research. Post edited by Adam Ciesielski prior to publication. Introduction Hydrogen sits at the heart of today’s energy transition. From policy documents to industry roadmaps, it is widely promoted as a clean alternative to fossil fuels. ...[Read More]

My First EGU Experience: EGU26

My First EGU Experience: EGU26

The journey to my first EGU General Assembly (GA) 2026 (EGU26) was memorable even before the conference began. What should have been a straightforward train ride to Vienna turned into an unexpected adventure when we were asked to get off at a small station and wait several hours for alternative transport. Surrounded by travellers, luggage, and a fair amount of confusion, it felt as though the EGU2 ...[Read More]

Fifty years of ocean chemistry in one place: GLODAPv3 is here!

Fifty years of ocean chemistry in one place: GLODAPv3 is here!

Working with marine carbonate-system observations has taught me how much effort lies behind every row of an oceanographic dataset: long hours at sea, careful sampling, laboratory analyses, calibration and quality control. A single bottle of seawater may represent only one place, one depth and one moment, but when many such samples are brought together, they can reveal how the ocean is changing. On ...[Read More]

Why do Earth’s hidden stress fields matter for our future? Let’s explore the latest insights from the World Stress Map database

Beneath the serene landscapes we inhabit, the Earth’s crust is a battleground of constant, immense, and invisible tectonic forces. While humanity typically only notices this deep-seated stress when it violently releases in the form of an earthquake and volcanoes, these forces have always been shaping the structural bedrock of our planet. Understanding this hidden architecture is one of the most vi ...[Read More]

The myth of scientific neutrality: A vacuum we can no longer ignore

The myth of scientific neutrality: A vacuum we can no longer ignore

Another General Assembly has come to an end, and perhaps, many would agree on how inspiring and enriching the week was. Yet this year, being inside the EGU bubble felt particularly strange while the world outside is quite literally on fire. Wars, systemic violations of international laws and the acceleration of environmental crises continue to unfold across the globe In this context, geoscientists ...[Read More]

From the Lab to the Open Air: The Struggle of Making Sensors That Don’t Lie

July 9, 2026

In scientific papers, measuring gases in the atmosphere sounds like a straightforward task: you buy a sensor, you calibrate it, and you let it collect data. However, anyone who worked on this knows that the real atmosphere is a hostile environment for delicate electronics and precision optics. Among humidity saturating your circuits, brutal temperature swings, and the natural drift of components o ...[Read More]
