The EGU 2015 General Assembly, which is taking place in Vienna, Austria from 12–17 April, will bring together geoscientists from all over the world to one meeting covering all disciplines of the Earth, planetary and space sciences. The deadline for abstract submission is 7 January.

Following from last year’s success, the EGU General Assembly will have a theme: A Voyage Through Scales. The theme is an invitation to contemplate Earth’s extraordinary variability extending from milliseconds to its age and from microns to the size of the planet. The theme does not constrain the topics to be presented at the Assembly; rather, it will add to the conference experience.

You can submit your abstract for the conference until 7 January 2015 at 13:00 CET. In addition to established scientists, early career researchers and undergraduate and graduate students are welcome to submit abstracts to present their research at the conference.

You can browse through the EGU 2015 sessions online. Clicking on ‘please select’ will allow you to search for sessions by Programme Group and submit your abstract to the relevant session either as plain text, LaTeX, or a MS Word document. Further guidelines on how to submit an abstract are available on the EGU 2015 website.

Early registration for the conference is open until 12 March 2015. Scientists can register online on the General Assembly website. Note that EGU members benefit from reduced member rates: to become a member, go to www.egu.eu/membership/, where you can both become a new member, or renew your EGU membership.
