He is co-supervised by Bettina Schaefli (University of Bern, CH) and Stuart Lane (University of Lausanne, CH). During his PhD, he spent most of his summers camping in the forefield of the Otemma glacier, collecting various datasets such a geophysical surveys, groundwater well observations, water isotopes and geochemistry or stream discharge among others.

In the international graduate school StRATEGy (Surface Processes, Tectonics and Georesources: The Andean foreland basin of Argentina), he highlighted 2 new mechanisms associated with plate interaction at the convergent margin: (i) trench hindrance associated with slab steepening, which he presented at the EGU, and (2) crustal contraction and transpression of continental crust associated with the arrival of a flat slab (e.g. the Pampean and Laramide flat slab).

Organized in partnership with research institutes, universities, and NGO s, the program features a wide range of research projects and lectures. The teacher-focused component of the program aims to elevate the profile of geosciences among high school STEM educators and early-career teachers.
Home / News / EGU news / EGU Outreach Committee sponsored workshop
This online training programme can help you to develop the specific skills for writing popular articles and interacting effectively with the media, and is led by tutors who work as science journalists and broadcasters. By the end of this workshop, you will have produced a short-form popular science article about an aspect of your research for a target audience of your choice, with advice from professional science writers. You will also have gained experience of preparing for and giving broadcast media interviews about your work, and insights into the role of journalists in science communication.

Home / Awards & medals / Arne Richter Awards for Outstanding Early Career Scientists / 2022 / Chao Yue
Combining the wave observation and coincident plasma measurements, Yue has revealed several intrinsic features about the whistler waves and EMIC waves which provide important insights for studying the excitation mechanism of plasma waves. In her brief professional career, she has a total of 27 first-authored/corresponding authored and 43 co-authored peer reviewed papers. In addition, Chao Yue has dedicated a lot of efforts to serve the space science community.
Home / News / EGU news / The 2020/21 EGU science-policy pairing scheme is currently underway!
Bichler will continue to assist Spyraki and her team on a part-time basis in the coming weeks. Although in previous years the EGU’s science-policy pairing scheme has been limited to one week when it takes place in person, the virtual nature of this year’s experience means that the pairing, its related activities, and its duration are more flexible.
