  • Imaggeo on Mondays: The sun rises also in the middle of nowhere
    by Hazel Gibson on February 17, 2020 at 10:53 am

    Uluru in Australia is one of the most visibly recognisable geological features in the world. This sandstone formation covers an area of 3.3 kilometres and stands 345 metres above the plains around it. According to geoscientists, the rocks that form Uluru were deposited in an inland sea during the Cambrian Period approximately 500 million years […]

  • Accessibility at EGU: Crutches at the General Assembly? Surprisingly Easy
    by Terri Cook on February 12, 2020 at 11:01 am

    Last year I had the opportunity to attend my first General Assembly to speak at several sessions about my experience working as a science journalist and reporting in the field during an EGU Science Journalism Fellowship. With my tickets booked and accommodations reserved, I was ready to go — until I tore a ligament in my knee while skiing in […]

  • Imaggeo on Mondays: Cooking crystals in the Earth cauldron
    by Julien Leuthold on February 10, 2020 at 10:01 am

    This picture shows a 30 micrometer thick rock section of a gabbro from the Rum Layered Intrusion (Scotland). Large clinopyroxene crystals are enclosed in a foliated fine grained groundmass of plagioclase and olivine. The clinopyroxene core crystallized at an early stage, at 1160°C. They were partly molten at 1200°C during successive hot […]

  • Inclusive flood mapping: using citizen science to collect historical flood data in Dakar, Senegal.
    by Hazel Gibson on February 7, 2020 at 1:08 pm

    During the month of February, we are focusing on ‘Accessibility and Inclusivity’ here at the EGU. Although these topics are clearly relevant to the General Assembly, some people may wonder whether they also relate to scientific research. Clearly all geoscientists are people, so accessibility and inclusivity matter regardless of what […]

  • Imaggeo On Mondays: Contrasting Colors of Pinnacles and Mountains
    by Hazel Gibson on February 3, 2020 at 10:40 am

    Despite its rugged appearance of sandstone pinnacles and arches, the ecosystem of Arches National Park in Utah, U.S.A. is very fragile. Beyond the normal ‘high desert’ environment, this beautiful landscape is home to microbial communities in the soil called cryptobiotic crusts. These biological soil crusts are very vulnerable to damage […]
