Are you an EGU member who wants to sharpen your mentorship skills - either as a novice seeking support or an experienced participant looking to provide it? 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.
On 23rd February 2026, Malaysia faced one of the strongest earthquakes ever recorded in its history. A magnitude 6.8 event struck offshore Sabah, the most seismically active state in Malaysia. The event was reported as magnitude 6.8 by MetMalaysia, while the USGS recorded it as magnitude 7.1, with the difference reflecting variations in magnitude estimates […]
Drawing inspiration from new research shared by EGU scientists, this column brings you some of the latest publications. This edition covers the globe, from the air we breathe in Ireland and China to the waves that stitch the tropics to the Southern Hemisphere. Surface ozone in Ireland: where does it really come from? Ozone plays […]
Subsea pipelines and cables are vital to modern energy and communications, yet assessing the active geological faults they cross underwater is notoriously difficult. By examining marine fault slip rates at higher stratigraphic resolution than previously analyzed in this region, our new research shows that displacement rates accelerated tenfold after the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). This […]
