This Earth Day EGU joins with geoscience organisations around the world to share our commitment to promoting the conscientious applications of science to help us find solutions to create a just and sustainable future for humanity and the planet.
An abstract submitted to EGU24 has been withdrawn from the programme.
The European Geosciences Union’s annual General Assembly will be held from 14-19 April 2024 in a hybrid format. Journalists, science bloggers and other media participants can now access the online press centre for press conferences and sessions of media interest.
A new study reveals European summer weather is predictable months to years in advance, due to higher levels of freshwater in the North Atlantic. The paper, published in the EGU journal Weather and Climate Dynamics, outlines a chain of events leading to hotter and drier European summers.
Erika Palmerio, a leading early career scientist working on conditions in space driven by solar activity, shares her journey of networking and inspiration. Auroras and disturbances in Earth’s magnetic field or Earth’s environment used to be studied as separate phenomena until scientists learned that they are related to the continuous chain of solar activity. While the Sun’s impact can light up the sky through enchanting displays of northern lights, an outburst of a solar storm could also plunge the Earth …
Understanding multi-hazard approaches is crucial in an era of escalating natural hazards leading to disastrous impacts on Earth’s citizens. Triggered by the increasing frequency and severity of these events, this brief post provides a concise yet comprehensive overview of evolving paradigms in multi-hazard research and management. By exploring definitions, historical developments, and current trends, we highlight the critical importance of integrated strategies in mitigating impacts on society all in a nutshell. Foundation: Multi-hazard concept history at one glance It is …
Your research deserves recognition beyond your peer-reviewed paper. While academia is often considered the hallmark for knowledge generation, the dissemination of your work should take further steps so that your scientific research can reach the people it is meant to help. Because your audience may not always be experts in your field and may require simplified explanations of your science, EGU are proud to introduce our Science-Media Toolkit! It is designed for researchers and scientists like yourself to confidently engage …
