From Finland to Switzerland: A Campervan Journey for Snow Research
Traveling by land within Europe is relatively easy, and for me it’s also a conscious choice to push back against the fast pace of modern travel and the normalization of flying. I chose to drive a van instead of taking the train mainly because of my dog, and because finding pet-friendly accommodation during the high season was challenging. I’m visiting the Snow Hydrology research group in WSL Insti ...[Read More]

Close the gender gap among EGU awardees: Nominate your women peers
Scientists are often imagined through a narrow and gendered stereotype. This matters because society’s image of scientist shape who is seen, remembered and valued as a role model. When recognition, leadership and awards are skewed towards male scientists, scientists from underrepresented genders are less likely to feel that they belong, or see a future for themselves in the field. In geosciences, ...[Read More]

What is neurodiversity? Neurodiversity is the concept that individuals experience the world, process information, function and communicate in diverse ways; there is no ‘default’ way of thinking. As a framework it supports the self-advocacy of people who face obstacles due to their needs not being considered in the design of environments and systems. Such individuals think and experienc ...[Read More]
