Where to next? A Geotourism guide to some of the World’s most epic landscapes

Where to next? A Geotourism guide to some of the World’s most epic landscapes

Geological tourism, or geotourism, offers a unique way to experience our planet’s incredible history and ongoing dynamic processes. Beyond simply admiring beautiful landscapes, geotourism invites us to understand the forces that shaped them, from ancient tectonic movements to the relentless power of erosion. Join us as we explore some remarkable geotourism destinations, each telling a …[Read More]

On ice: algal blooms and the Greenland Ice Sheet

On ice: algal blooms and the Greenland Ice Sheet

On the first episode of the EGU Biogeosciences Division’s podcast series, Bikem Ekberzade interviews Helen Feord on the algal blooms that contribute to the melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet. Together with Feord, a researcher for the 5-year long project DEEP PURPLE the two scientists talk about cryosphere research, climate change and what it means …[Read More]

Reflecting on the 2025 Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) – Interior of the Earth

Reflecting on the 2025 Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) – Interior of the Earth

This week in News & Views, Heidi Krauss, a PhD student at Michigan State University, shares her experience co-chairing the 2025 Interior of the Earth Gordon Research Seminar, held at Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley, Massachusetts. Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to help co-chair the Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) on the Interior …[Read More]

Mangroves: Our coastal guardians of soil, biodiversity, and climate

Mangroves: Our coastal guardians of soil, biodiversity, and climate

Mangrove forests, rare tidal woodlands at the interface of land and sea, are extraordinary ecosystems that bridge freshwater and marine environments. These forests support rich biodiversity and invaluable nursery habitat for fish and crustaceans, while also providing food, shelter, and cultural resources to millions of coastal communities. Think of mangroves as sea walls: their dense, …[Read More]

Simulating the Deep Earth with MAGEMin: A Toolkit for Thermodynamic Modeling in Geodynamics

Simulating the Deep Earth with MAGEMin: A Toolkit for Thermodynamic Modeling in Geodynamics

Understanding how rocks melt, deform, and evolve within Earth’s interior is a central challenge in geoscience. These processes span a wide range of spatial and temporal scales and are governed by complex interactions between temperature, pressure, composition, and phase stability. Capturing this complexity in numerical models requires integrating mineral thermodynamics directly into geodynamic modeling frameworks. MAGEMin …[Read More]
