The General Assembly 2021 will offer more policy-related sessions than any previous EGU meeting. We hope you’ll join some to learn more about science for policy and how you can effectively engage in Europe’s policymaking processes.
The EGU General Assembly 2021: early-bird registration ends Wednesday; what’s on at the meeting; and getting the most out of online conferences.
The recipients’ innovative use of Earth observation techniques will be recognised at a 19 April prize ceremony to be held during the virtual EGU General Assembly 2021.
This year’s virtual General Assembly is bursting with Short Courses, vPICO sessions, Union Symposia, and Great Debates. Learn more about what’s on at vEGU21 during EGU’s latest webinar!
EGU is building a new virtual conference platform based on your feedback.
Here, we present an Alpine-wide analysis of snow depth from six Alpine countries – Austria, France, Germany, Italy, Slovenia, and Switzerland – including altogether more than 2000 stations of which more than 800 were used for the trend assessment. Linear trends of monthly mean snow depth between1971 and 2019 showed decreases in snow depth for most stations from November to May.
Large forms of sorted patterned ground belong to the most prominent geomorphic features of periglacial and permafrost environments of the mid-latitudes and polar regions, but they were hitherto unknown in the tropics. Here, we report on relict large sorted stone stripes (up to 1000 m long, 15 m wide, and 2 m deep) on the ca. 4000 m high central Sanetti Plateau of the tropical Bale Mountains in the southern Ethiopian Highlands.
Chronological uncertainty is a hallmark of the paleoenvironmental sciences and geosciences. While many tools have been made available to researchers to quantify age uncertainties suitable for various settings and assumptions, disparate tools and output formats often discourage integrative approaches. Here, we describe geoChronR, an open-source R package to facilitate these tasks.
Ciao, Ohh, March is already over, well it ended how it started… reading, writing, sleep, repeat, but I can see some light at the end of the tunnel of the paper 😆. This work will be the last part of my thesis, and of course, I will present it at #vEGU21, so stay tuned. Besides research, we ECS reps currently focus on the preparation of network activities for the general assembly. So if you haven’t done yet, register for our …
This year’s Photo Competition judging panel did a fantastic job of narrowing down the outstanding photo submissions to the EGU’s Photo Competition to just 10 finalists! The finalist photos are listed below by alphabetical order of the photographer and on the Imaggeo website where you can vote for them from today (19 April) until Thursday, 29 April 2021 18:00 CEST. The three photos with the most votes will be announced online at midday on 30 April! Our Top 10 Finalists: …
This year, for our annual General Assembly, EGU and our conference provider Copernicus have been working hard to provide a much wider range of networking options than we were able to do in the very short time frame we had, in 2020. These networking options are collected into two types: the Conference Networker, with the ‘Handshake’ function; and the Pop-up Networking Scheduler. This post will focus on the Pop-Up Scheduler which lets attendees organise their own networking events on whatever …
