The first EGU newsletter came out in November 2002. The
Eggs magazine became the EGU newsletter after the completing of the merging between EGS and EUG in 2003. The three-monthly newsletter was modernised in late 2012 and both its format and its name were changed in GeoQ. The necessity to give reports of its activities on a more regular basis, led the EGU to further change its newsletter format and name (now
EGU newsletter) in January 2015. The actual newsletter is an e-mail version, having a monthly frequency. which soon became a quick-to-read source of information about the EGU activities and on research in the Earth, planetary and space sciences fields. The blog has now grown to include division blogs and network blogs. EGU has also published academic books and other publications. Since 2001, the EGU and
Copernicus Publications have published a growing number of
peer-reviewed open-access scientific journals:
Journals In October 2002 the first EGU journals were published by transferring the property of the EGS publications
Advances in Geosciences (
ADGEO),
Annales Geophysicae (
ANGEO),
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics (
ACP),
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences (
HESS),
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences (
NHESS) and
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics (
NPG) – to the EGU. The open access journals
Biogeosciences (
BG) and
Ocean Sciences (
OS) had been launched via
Copernicus Publications in March and November 2004, respectively. In 2005, EGU launched the open access journals
Climate of the Past (
CP) and
eEarth in July and October, respectively through Copernicus Publications. The latter was replaced by
Solid Earth journal in 2009. The open access journals
The Cryosphere (
TC) and
Geoscientific Model Development (
GMD) were released in 2007 via
Copernicus Publications. In June 2007, the EGU launched Imaggeo, an open access database featuring photos and videos relating geosciences. In August 2008, the
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques (
AMT) journal was first published, and the journals
Solid Earth (
SE) and
Earth System Dynamics (
ESD) began publication in February and March 2010 respectively. In 2011,
Geoscientific Instrumentation, Methods and Data Systems (
GI) was first published. On 7 April 2013 the open access journals
Earth Surface Dynamics (
ESurf) and
SOIL were launched via Copernicus Publications. In April 2018, EGU launched the open access journal
Geoscience Communication (
GC) and the compilation
Encyclopedia of Geosciences (
EG), a collection of articles in between traditional review articles and online encyclopediae. EGU's newest journals are Geochronology, launched in April 2019, and
Weather and Climate Dynamics, launched in August 2019. •
Annales Geophysicae: covers the sciences of the Sun-Earth system, including
space weather, solar-terrestrial plasma physics, and the Earth's atmosphere. •
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics: covers the Earth's atmosphere and the underlying chemical and physical processes. It covers the altitude range from the land and ocean surface up to the
turbopause, including the
troposphere,
stratosphere, and
mesosphere. •
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques: covers
remote sensing, in-situ and laboratory measurement techniques for the constituents and properties of the Earth's atmosphere. •
Biogeosciences: covers all aspects of the interactions between the biological, chemical, and physical processes in terrestrial or extraterrestrial life with the geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere. •
Climate of the Past: covers the climate history of the Earth, including all temporal scales of climate change and variability, from geological time through to multidecadal studies of the last century. •
Earth Surface Dynamics: covers the physical, chemical and biological processes shaping the Earth's surface and their interactions on all scales. •
Earth System Dynamics: covers the functioning of the whole Earth system and global change. •
Geochronology: covers physical, chemical, and biological processes used to quantify time in all environmental and geological settings throughout Earth's history. •
Geoscience Communication: covers all aspects of outreach, public engagement, widening participation, knowledge exchange •
Geoscientific Instrumentation, Methods and Data Systems: covers the area of geoscientific instruments. •
Geoscientific Model Development: covers numerical models of the Earth system and its components. •
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences: covers research in
hydrology, placed within a holistic Earth system science context. •
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences: covers research on natural hazards. •
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics: covers nonlinear processes in all branches of Earth, planetary, and solar system sciences. •
Ocean Science: covers all aspects of ocean science. •
Soil: covers soil system sciences at the interface between the atmosphere,
lithosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere. •
Solid Earth: covers the composition, structure and dynamics of the Earth from the surface to the deep interior at all spatial and temporal scales. •
The Cryosphere: covers all aspects of frozen water and ground on Earth and on other planetary bodies. •
Weather and Climate Dynamics: covers all aspects of dynamical processes in the atmosphere. == Awards ==
