Sharing our appreciation and gratitude with the more than 12,000 volunteers and members who generously donated their time to EGU in 2025!
The European Geosciences Union (EGU) is seeking to appoint an Executive Assistant to support the EGU Executive Director. Applications will be assessed from 12:00 CET on the 23 March.
The EGU will provide funding to support the organisation of 24 geoscience conferences and training schools run by EGU members in 2026. These events are proposed by EGU members from all career stages, and will be hosted in locations all over the world.
Each month we feature specific Divisions of EGU and during the monthly GeoRoundup we put the journals that publish science from those Divisions at the top of the Highlights section. For March, we are not featuring any particular divisions, but an ensemble of all the highlights of this month instead. Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics Emerging low-cloud feedback and adjustment in global satellite observations – 26 March 2026 Biogeosciences Drivers of long-term grassland CO2 fluxes: effects of management and meteorological conditions …
It’s murky grey, windy, and freezing when we head out into the countryside of the Swiss pre-Alps. We are looking for low hanging clouds to serve as our natural laboratory. Wintertime low stratus clouds can cover Switzerland for days. This type of cloud is stable with temperatures below 0 ºC and it contains plenty of liquid cloud droplets, but no ice crystals. These are the perfect background conditions for starting our experiments (see Figure 1, left). We launch an uncrewed …
The contribution from Sergio León-Ríos, Associate Researcher at the Advanced Mining Technology Center (AMTC) at the University of Chile, where he does seismology research. Introduction Earthquakes and tsunamis are not only purely scientific geophysical phenomena. They are also deeply embedded in social memory, cultural narratives, and everyday life – especially in countries like Chile, where seismic activity is a constant presence. For the record, the strongest largest earthquake ever recorded by humanity (magnitude 9.5!) happened in Chile in 1960. While …
