The 2019 General Assembly of the European Geosciences Union (EGU) provides an opportunity for journalists to find out about the latest research in the Earth, planetary and space sciences, and to talk to researchers from all over the world. The meeting, the largest geosciences conference in Europe, is anticipated to bring together over 14,000 scientists in 2019. It runs from 7 to 12 April and is taking place at the Austria Center Vienna, in Vienna, Austria.
The EGU General Assembly (https://www.egu2019.eu/) allows journalists to learn about new developments in a range of fields, such as planetary exploration, Earth observation, polar science, climate change, pollution and natural hazards. The preliminary programme (https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU2019/sessionprogramme/) for the meeting includes hundreds of scientific sessions covering all areas of the Earth, planetary and space sciences. Some of the meeting’s most newsworthy scientific advances will be presented to journalists at press conferences, to be announced in March.
