GeoRoundup: the highlights of EGU Journals published during June!

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. During this month, we are featuring Ocean Science and Nonlinear Processes. They are represented by the journals Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics (NPG), Weather and Climate Dynamics (WCD), Ocean Science (OS), and Geoscientific Model Development(GMD). Ocean Science Long-term prediction of the Gulf Stream meander using OceanNet: a principled neural-operator-based digital twin …


The International SeaKeepers Society Powers NOAA’s Groundbreaking Ocean Mapping Breakthrough for Seabed 2030

In a bold leap toward mapping Earth’s final frontier, the seafloor, The International SeaKeepers Society (SeaKeepers), a global non-profit organization, is proud to support a historic advancement in this effort. As part of the global Nippon Foundation-GEBCO Seabed 2030 Project, SeaKeepers has been mobilizing private yachts through its DISCOVERY Fleet since 2021 to collect vital seafloor data. Since 2017, both the International Hydrographic Organization and the Seabed 2030 Project have worked to encourage citizen scientists around the world to join …


Bits and Bites of Geodesy – From Wobble to Wander: Tracking Earth’s Shifting Rotation Axis

When we think of Earth’s rotation, it is tempting to imagine a perfectly smooth spin. But in reality, Earth’s rotation is irregular and dynamic, and is influenced by forces inside and outside of our planet. To describe the changing orientation of the Earth in space over time Earth Orientation Parameters (EOPs) are measured with fundamental geodetic measuring techniques, e.g., Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI), Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR), and Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) in combination with the realization of …
