Why not register to take part in our free mentoring training session, organised by the EGU Outreach Committee, to be held on Wednesday 28 October.
Why do storybook donkeys know about earthquakes? Discover a new show premiering at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival this August exploring seismology and science through storytelling and song, funded by the EGU Special Activity Fund and with support from the University of Edinburgh School of GeoSciences.
The EGU, in close collaboration with the European Parliament Intergroup on Climate Change, Biodiversity, and Sustainable Development, are providing an EGU member with the opportunity to visit Brussels and work alongside a Member of the European Parliament (MEP) to learn more about how science can be used to support policymaking in Europe! Apply by 1 September 2026.
EGU's Executive Director Philippe Courtial was this year honoured with the prestigious JpGU international Contribution Award at the 2026 joint JpGU-AGU scientific meeting in Chiba, Japan, in May 2026.
Dear EGU Hydrology community, Over the past few years, machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence have fundamentally changed what is possible in large-scale hydrological modeling. At Google, our team has worked to develop machine learning river forecast models that operate globally, extending reliable forecasting to ungauged basins and covering almost two billion people through the […]
If we look at Mars today, we’ll see a cold, dusty desert, but peel back the surface geology, and the planet tells quite a different story! Networked river valleys, ancient deltaic fans, carved impact crater lakes, and potential palaeoshorelines all point to a warm and active past during the Noachian and early Hesperian epochs, circa 3.7 to 4.1 billion years ago. For decades, planetary scientists have wrestled with an important question: if liquid water once flowed across Mars in the …
In this week’s blog post, Daniel Douglas teaches us everything about poroelasticity, water in subduction zones and… sponges under the sea! Are you ready kids? Aye, aye, Captain! Why study subduction zones? “Subduction” is a process that occurs when two tectonic plates collide with each other. As long as one of the plates is an “oceanic plate”, then the denser of the two tectonic plates will be pushed under the less dense plate and subduction will occur. This phenomenon occurs …
