The European Geosciences Union is happy to announce the EGU General Assembly from 02 - 07 May 2010 in Vienna, Austria. Geohazards (the Haiti and Chile earthquakes), the climate change debate, ocean acidification, biosphere-atmosphere interaction, water, renewable resources and low-carbon energy options, and life on early Earth are among this year's central issues. The EGU General Assembly 2010 will bring together 10,000 geoscientists from all over Europe and the rest of the world into one meeting covering all disciplines of the Earth, Planetary and Space Sciences. Major General Assembly 2010 topics and debates are related to our natural environment and its current threats: geohazards such as wildfires, weather and climate. Spatial and temporal patterns of wildfires, models of desertification and degradation, and the realities of damage control in forest landscapes will be covered in several sessions.
