A little over a decade ago, a group of us argued that “it takes a village to raise a hydrologist”. The skills and knowledge any hydrologist should be exposed to during their training goes far beyond what a single person can do and know. Even more, the experience of how water shapes and interacts with diverse landscapes all around the world cannot be obtained by a single person. This is true especi ...[Read More]
As we left EGU26 behind with record participation, it was amazing to see increased interest in science-policy sessions from the scientific community. Thanks to all panellists who contributed to the stimulating discussions, and to all participants for igniting them! Below is a look into some of the key themes emerged from the #science4policy sessions at EGU26. Innovation and emerging technologies A ...[Read More]
This interview is part of an ongoing series exploring the evolving role of interdisciplinarity across the geosciences. As environmental challenges grow more complex, addressing them requires not only disciplinary expertise but also meaningful collaboration and innovation across fields, methodologies, and communities. In each conversation, I ask Division Presidents to reflect on how cross-divisiona ...[Read More]
Pride month arrives this year against a backdrop of institutional irony. In the United States, federal research funding has been thoroughly weaponised and forced a massive scientific brain drain across the Atlantic. In Europe, a multi-million-euro effort to capture that exiled talent is underway, even as Europe’s own domestic politics fracture along the exact same ideological fault lines. Fo ...[Read More]
For this episode of HydroTalks, we’re thrilled to welcome Dr. Ilias Pechlivanidis, Senior Researcher and Associate Professor (Docent) in hydrology and water resources at the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI), and Visiting Researcher at Uppsala University. He is currently the Vice President of the EGU Hydrological Sciences Division and will serve as Division President for th ...[Read More]
The EGU General Assembly (GA) 2026 was an amazing success! Over the course of five sunny days in Vienna, 20,173 presentations were given across 1,014 sessions by the 20,027 on-site participants and 2,470 online attendees. There were plenty of events to choose from for the hydrologists attending. Across sessions, networking events, short courses, posters and medal lectures, we have put together som ...[Read More]
Editor’s note: While this article explores the benefits of Diamond Open Access and critiques commercial, for-profit publishing structures, it is important to note that the European Geosciences Union (EGU) operates on a community-led, transparent, and not-for-profit Open Access model. EGU journals use Article Processing Charges (APCs) strictly to cover publishing costs and support the scientific co ...[Read More]
We are excited to announce the 19th edition of Geodesy Campfire – Share Your Research in April. The Geodesy EGU Campfire Events “Share Your Research” give (early career) researchers the chance to talk about their work. We have two exciting talks by our guest speakers, Yuting Cheng and Hamed Izadgoshasb. Below, you can find the details of the topics awaiting us. We will have time to network after t ...[Read More]
The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation — the AMOC — has become one of the most discussed elements of the climate system. It is often portrayed as a looming tipping point, a potential disruptor of European climate, and a symbol of the uncertainties that still surround climate projections. We spoke with Didier Swingedouw, a leading researcher in ocean–climate interactions from the CNRS and ...[Read More]
Academia is often imagined as a space driven by merit, curiosity, and scientific collaboration. Still behind publications, conferences, and research achievements, many women in STEM continue to navigate environments shaped by subtle exclusion, normalized inequalities, and power imbalances that are not always openly discussed. In Earth Sciences, where collaboration and field-based research are fund ...[Read More]
