Her ongoing work includes performing Monte Carlo simulations to consider the range and probability (uncertainty) of variables in risk assessment, and further interpreting the distribution and origins of heavy metals in soils.

In relative terms this means that these rivers can export their annual bedload sediment budget in 12 hours. This therefore shows how ‘flashy’ the rivers in Greece are and highlights how the transport of bedload occurs predominantly in high-discharge events, which occur less frequently.

Julia C. Hargreaves The 2021 Union Service Award is awarded to Julia C. Hargreaves in recognition of her outstanding contributions over many years to the creation, promotion, and development of the internationally recognized EGU journal Geoscientific Model Development. In 2008 Hargreaves became a founding executive editor of EGU’s Geoscientific Model Development (GMD) and has played a critical role in the intellectual development and practical success of the journal ever since.

Subsequently, he focussed on a wider range of problems throughout the field of geodynamics, such as crystal segregation within dikes, the effects of material heterogeneities on rifting and necking, and the obduction of oceanic plates.

More information The European Geosciences Union ( EGU ) is Europe’s premier geosciences union, dedicated to the pursuit of excellence in the Earth, planetary, and space sciences for the benefit of humanity, worldwide. It is a non-profit interdisciplinary learned association of scientists founded in 2002 with headquarters in Munich, Germany.

William Shotyk The 2013 Philippe Duchaufour Medal is awarded to William Shotyk for his clear understanding of the impacts of human activities on the geochemical cycles of trace elements in organic soils and sediments. William Shotyk is the Bocock Chair for Agriculture and the Environment at the Department of Renewable Resources at the University of Alberta, Canada.

While atmospheric composition research is advancing rapidly, there is a need to pay more attention to the translation of this research to support societal needs. In this Union Symposium, we plan to highlight the need for, and to illustrate exciting advances in the translation of atmospheric composition research to support services. This session will also serve as a celebration of the 30 year anniversary of the World Meteorological Organization Global Atmosphere Watch (WOM–GAW) programme.

In the case of floods, the novelty of this framework is that it enabled a process-based approach for linking flood changes not just to environmental drivers, but also to demographic changes and economic cycles, and representing these interactions by a system of coupled, non-linear dynamic equations.

The package includes 3 hands-on practices that can be proposed within a regular course to support students’ understanding of the theoretical contents delivered in lectures. The practices follow the typical workflow in flood hazard studies: estimation of design flood discharges, mapping of inundation hazard and definition of strategies to manage flood risk.
Home / News / Press releases / How Venus went rogue and what that might mean for Earth
How? Likely massive volcanism worse than the worst ever seen on Earth, he says. Way, Richard Ernst of Carleton University in Canada and Tomsk State University in Russia, and Jeffrey Scargle of NASA Ames Research Center in California, will present their hypothesis and evidence on how Venus went rogue this week during the European Geosciences Union ( EGU ) General Assembly 2022 .
