Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student Poster and PICO (OSPP) Awards / 2019 / Alexander Lukin
His main research interest in spacecraft data analysis and theoretical models of plasma physics in the Earth magnetosphere with the focus on the night-side magnetopause structure and dynamics. The poster presented at EGU2019 has been devoted to multi-spacecraft investigations of the flank magnetopause.
Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student Poster (OSP) Awards / 2014 / Lukas Strauss
In the awarded poster, he showed the influence of a secondary orographic obstacle and properties of the valley atmosphere on the formation of low-level turbulent zones downstream of the Sierra Nevada, using data from the Terrain-induced Rotor Experiment (2006, Sierra Nevada, California).
Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student Poster and PICO (OSPP) Awards / 2019 / Ricarda Gatter
Dr. Katrin Huhn (MARUM) and Dr. Michael Clare (NOC, Southampton, UK). Her PhD project focuses on the investigation of failure planes of submarine landslides, and aims to understand in which material submarine landslides initiate and why. The awarded poster presented an initial global synthesis of submarine landslide studies that focus on weak layers and their role in the formation of failure planes.
Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student and PhD candidate Presentation (OSPP) Awards / 2025 / Martin-Georg Endress
His research focuses on process-based modelling of microbial carbon cycling in soils from a bioenergetic perspective. In particular, he aims to leverage thermodynamic constraints on microbial growth to better understand and quantify carbon fluxes in the soil system. His EGU 2025 poster presented modelling results and compiled empirical evidence on the bioenergetics of microbial maintenance metabolism.
Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student Poster (OSP) Awards / 2012 / Johan S. Löfgren
He has a BSc in Electrical Engineering and a MSc in Radio and Space Science. The focus of his current research is reflected Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals with the application of monitoring sea level.
Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student Poster and PICO (OSPP) Awards / 2018 / Lucie Babel
Following an ethnological methodology based on interviews and observation, she aims at accounting for the processes of decision-making in model construction. The awarded PICO presentation summarizes the first outcomes of extensive interviews conducted with modelers in a wide range of disciplines stretching from astrophysics to geomorphology. The thesis is co-directed by Derek Karssenberg and Dominique Vinck.

Home / News / EGU news / The EGU supports the EU Nature Restoration Law encompassing all critical ecosystems
Likewise, healthy peatlands have a myriad of benefits, storing almost 30% of all soil carbon despite only representing 3% of the world’s land surface [5]. The EGU therefore believes that strengthening the ecosystem targets with regards to both these ecosystems in EU’s Nature Restoration Law is necessary to fight continent-wide biodiversity loss and promote Europe-wide sustainability.
Home / Awards & medals / Young Scientist Outstanding Poster Paper (YSOPP) Awards / 2004 / Philip Brunner
Click here to download the poster/PICO file. Philip Brunner works at the Institute of Hydromechanics and Water Resources Management (IHW), Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatics Engineering at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich. His Ph.D. project focuses on modelling water and salt fluxes through a agriculturally used basin in Xinjiang, China in order to understand and quantify the process of salination.
