Artificial intelligence (AI) has been here a while, and it isn’t going anywhere, not any time soon. It has become an integral part of many lives and businesses. When I speak of AI, I am not referring to GenAI (generative AI) that writes your emails for you: Think about the algorithms that suggest what movie you should watch next, the voice assistant that adds milk to your shopping list, and ...[Read More]
Self-guilt is a common feeling among PhD students. It often leads us to devalue ourselves more harshly than is fair and to form unrealistic expectations. It is important to understand how it shows up in our daily work, what fuels it, and how we can resist it — because over time, it can quietly undermine both our well-being and our work. The ideas below are the results of group discussions that hav ...[Read More]
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 for us today. You can listen to the podcast ...[Read More]

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 of the Earth, held just before the main Gordon Rese ...[Read More]
The call-for-session-proposals for the General Assembly (GA) 2026 was launched on July 29. We take the opportunity to encourage all members of the hydrological community to participate in shaping the next year’s conference programme and in particular early career scientists. (Co-)convening a session is a great experience and the perfect networking opportunity. The Hydrology Division offers every y ...[Read More]
Mountain glaciers are melting rapidly due to global warming. This process is being intensified by increasingly extreme natural events, such as forest fires and air pollution from human activities. One of the main culprits is a tiny but powerful pollutant called black carbon (commonly known as soot) which darkens the surface of the snow and makes it met faster under the sun. But how much of this po ...[Read More]
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 mod ...[Read More]
Approximately 41,000 years ago, during the Laschamps geomagnetic excursion, Earth’s magnetic field experienced a significant disturbance. The strength of the magnetic field decreased to only 10% of what it is today, the magnetic poles shifted considerably from the geographic poles, and the magnetosphere—the protective layer surrounding our planet—became smaller and distorted in previously unvisual ...[Read More]
Soil is more than just dirt beneath our feet, it’s a living, breathing system that sustains ecosystems, regulates climate, and supports agriculture. At the heart of advancing our understanding of these vital systems is a dynamic group of early career researchers working within the Soil System Sciences (SSS) Division of the European Geosciences Union (EGU). In this post, we’re excited to intr ...[Read More]
