Home / Policy / EGU science-policy pairing scheme / The EGU 2024 Science-Policy Pairing Scheme with MEP Jutta Paulus
The 2024 Pairing Scheme was with Jutta Paulus , a German Member of the European Parliament (MEP), representing the Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance and EGU member, Bianca Drepper. Due to the 2024 European Elections, the Pairing Scheme took place in January 2025 rather than in late 2024.
Home / Awards & medals / Portrait / Petrus Peregrinus
Petrus Peregrinus Petrus Peregrinus is known for writing the "Epistola de magnete" in 1269 which must be seen as the first scientific treatise ever written. He performed a series of remarkable experiments with spherical pieces of lodestone. He defined the concept of polarity for the first time in Europe, discovered meridians, distinguished and named the north and south poles of the magnet and observed that the magnetic force is strongest and vertical at the poles.

EGS Milutin MilankovicŽ Medallist - 1998 Syukuro Manabe for his studies of climate change and development of prediction techniques using numerical mode ls In the sixties in Princeton, Suki Manabe was involved in the development of one of the earliest General Circulation Models. He was the first to include many basic concepts such as radiative-convective equilibrium, adiabatic adjustment, and cloud feedbacks.

Jessica is now working on the detection of seismic swarms in the Hikurangi subduction zone of New Zealand using 3 dimensional hidden Markov models and Epidemic Type Aftershock Sequence models. This is part of a larger project funded by an MBIE Smart Ideas grant to forecast future megaquakes in New Zealand. She also receives a University of Otago PhD scholarship.
Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student Poster and PICO (OSPP) Awards / 2018 / Saniya Behzadpour
Her research focuses on improving the quality of the gravity field from GRACE/GRACE-FO data by improving physical and stochastic error models in the processing chain. In the awarded poster, she presented results of an investigation on range rate postfit residuals of the GRACE data. This investigation indicates systematic errors in the observations due to eclipse crossings of the GRACE-A and GRACE-B satellites.

Home / Forms / EGU25: Ask a Science for Policy Practitioner
Please keep in mind that these questions should be relatively general – and more about the policy process or opportunities that exist– than your specific area of scientific expertise. Examples of topics that could serve as a basis for discussion are: What are some of the ways scientists can engage with policy in Europe/US/Africa etc.?

June The 13th Summer School on Sensitivity Analysis of Model Output (SAMO 2026) Fiesole (Florence), Italy 8–12 June 2026 SAMO 2026 covers how to perform sensitivity analysis in simulation modelling, as it has a crucial role in policy and policy-making. It provides an introduction to Global Sensitivity Analysis (GSA) — one of the most powerful tools for knowledge and understanding understanding complex models.
