AGU25 Annual Meeting

Each year, AGU comes up with a unique theme for the Annual Meeting. It starts as a brainstorm among interested parties, and then our design team takes themes and common threads from that brainstorm, and unites it with visuals that we can translate to graphics and signage for the meeting. This year, inspired by the “Connections” and “New Orleans Science” themes from the brainstorm, our incredible design team took those concepts, as well as a 1944 US Army Corps of Engineers report, “The Nature and Origin of the Alluvial Valley of the Lower Mississippi River” which visualized how it had evolved over time. They traced the the lower Mississippi River to digitize its path. The squiggles you see on signage throughout the meeting is the digitization of this mighty river that has served as a connection point for millions of people throughout this region, and continues to connect communities and people today. As rivers are points of connection, science is as well. Thus this year’s theme: Where Science Connects Us.

Dr. Dominik Paprotny, researcher at Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) – University of Szczecin (US) and member of COMPASS team, presented the COMPASS project with an invited talk entitled “Improving direct human forcing for CMIP7 earth system modelling and ISIMIP4 climate impact attribution“, on Wednesday 17 December 2025 betweeen 14:15 – 14:25 .

Also, the team of the University of Szczecin (US), will present a poster entitled “Automated Workflow for Climate Data Processing and Impact Attribution Using CDS and EU-Supported Datasets“, on Wednesday 17 December 2025 betweeen 14:15 – 17:45.
