The IMGW at Planet Earth Day

12.05.2025

On the Sunday following Earth Day and just in time for the start of EGU25 in Vienna – Europe’s largest geoscience conference with around 20,000 participants – the Geocenter at the University of Vienna opened its doors for Planet Earth Day.

From 1:00 PM to 5:30 PM, the Geocenter transformed into a “Science Market,” where visitors explored, discussed and played.

In the themed area “Our Wonderful Environment,” the Department of Meteorology and Geophysics (IMGW) was also on hand: Georg Thalassinos, Kaushambi Jyoti, Dorian Spät, Alessandra Cera, and Magdalena Fritz provided engaging explanations of the differences between weather and climate and offered insights into the basics of cloud formation.

A big thank you to everyone who helped make this special day possible!
