Five members of our research group attended the EGU General Assembly 2025 in Vienna, held during the last week of April from 27 April–2 May 2025. 

"Enhanced real-time global ionospheric maps using machine learning" by Iten et al. (2025)

Matthias Aichinger-Rosenberger and Laura Crocetti attended the GNSS+R workshop in Leiden, the Netherlands, two weeks ago.

Earlier this month, Benedikt Soja and Matthias Schartner traveled to beautiful Matera, Italy, to participate in the ESA Genesis Science Workshop, followed by the 27th Working Meeting of the European VLBI Group for Geodesy and Astrometry (EVGA).

Due to global warming, ice sheets and glaciers are melting, which is also affecting the Earth's rotational axis. In the worst-case scenario, the geographic North Pole could shift as much as 27 metres to the west by 2100, according to a new study by Dr Mostafa Kiani Shahvandi and Professor Benedikt Soja published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters. For their calculations, they analysed the movement of the Earth’s poles under different climate scenarios from 1900 to 2100.

Last week, Laura Crocetti gave a talk in the "Geo Colloquium" series at TU Wien. She was invited by Prof. Johannes Böhm.

"Downscaling GRACE-derived ocean bottom pressure anomalies using self-supervised data fusion" by Gou et al. (2025)

On the 4^th of December, Laura Crocetti successfully defended her Ph.D. thesis entitled "Application of Machine Learning Algorithms for the Detection of Spatio-Temporal Patterns linked to Geophysical Phenomena in GNSS Time Series".
