Home / Awards & medals / Hannes Alfvén Medal / 2014 / Karl Schindler
He has formulated theoretical foundations of magnetospheric physics and his contributions play a major role in the theory of the substorm mechanism, general magnetic reconnection, tearing-mode instability, helicity, and time-dependent convection in the magnetotail. Schindler’s contributions are now canonical studies in magnetospheric physics.

In these fields he was the leading scientist in Germany for the last decades. He opened the eyes of many water scientists and engineers on the need for a sustainable development and use of water resources. He was one of the first to urge the scientific community for a multi- disciplinary approach, to cope with the future challenges in water resources management.
Home / News / EGU news / EGU endorses March for Science
The March for Science includes a satellite March in Vienna on the day before the start of the EGU 2017 General Assembly. This meeting, a gathering of over 14,000 Earth, planetary and space scientists, takes place on 23–28 April in the Austrian capital. We encourage conference participants to consider taking part in the March to celebrate science and to call for the safeguarding of its future.
