Are you looking to join a global network of earth scientists? The Young Earth Scientists Network (YES Network) is an association of earth-scientists who are primarily under the age of 35 years that represent geological organisations and companies from across the world. The network has been established quite recently, in 2007, and has been running …[Read More]

Networking Opportunities at the 2013 General Assembly
With over 10,000 scientists all in one place, there are ample opportunities to meet other researchers in the Earth, planetary and space sciences, make friends, connections and start new collaborations. Here’s a sample of some of the great networking opportunities at the General Assembly this year: The Earth Science Women’s Network (Sunday 7 April, 12:15 …[Read More]
Using social networks to respond to earthquakes
Effective responses to natural disasters require the rapid acquisition of information about where has been affected, how many people are in the affected areas and what the magnitude of the damage is. This information is critical in both disaster and emergency rescue management. Indeed, the first three days after the onset of a disaster has …[Read More]
Fancy joining the EGU Blog Network?
The time has come to expand the EGU blog network! We currently feature blogs in palaeontology (Green Tea and Velociraptors), international development (Geology for Global Development) and geochemistry (GeoSphere) – we love them, but it simply isn’t enough. With so much great geoscience out there, we’d love to hear from more fields within the Earth, …[Read More]
Global Development, Geochemistry, and Velociraptors: Launching the EGU blog network!
Today we proudly launch the EGU’s official blog network, a project we hope will unite a diverse community of insightful bloggers in the Earth, planetary, and space sciences. The aim of our network is to offer blogging researchers an online platform to share their insights with other scientists and, importantly, to distill complex and often misunderstood …[Read More]
Join the EGU Blog Network!
To complement our official blog, we are launching a blog network related to the Earth, planetary, and space sciences. If you are a scientist who likes blogging about your research, or about geosciences in general, we would like to hear from you. In a few months, the EGU blog will migrate from WordPress to the …[Read More]
Pathways of force within granular layers
Earth’s surface is covered by many kinds of granular materials, including sediments and soils. Below ground, grains are also widespread in unconsolidated deposits and fault zones; even polycrystalline rocks deep inside the Earth are made up of mineral grains. These materials deform under their own weight and external forces, but what forces act inside them? …[Read More]
Robots in the Arctic: An autonomous adventure to Greenland’s outlet glaciers
Research cruises are a fundamental part of the cryospheric sciences. As the Arctic warms, the systems that shape our world look much different from one season to the next, making it more critical than ever to measure the changes of our icy world. Here, three early-career researchers share insights from a cruise they took part …[Read More]
Conference “at home”
Apart from scientific exchange and networking opportunities, conferences normally provide the chance to go places, to get out of the office, and see something new. But what happens when the conference is taking place in your home town? At your university? On your campus? Does this differ from going to other conferences or not at …[Read More]
