Image description: Digital tablet displaying the cover of 'EGU - The October 2025 Issue' the Loupe newsletter. Text reads: 'It's spooky season here in Europe, and that means that ghost stories and folklore make their way into the light, but what happens if you are a professional 'hauntologist'?! Simon Clark spoke with Elizabeth Case, a researcher who studies the 'ghosts' of glacial landscapes. "It’s not all metaphorical: glaciers haunt from far away in time and space. Most people won’t go to Antarctica or Greenland; their interaction with ice is through sea level." Elizabeth comments. "Glaciers bring the past into the present by responding to climate over multiple timescales: long-melted glaciers haunt us, as terraformers that shaped the land." Read the full interview here. We also learned about how climate models are uncovering the shadows of past eruptions in a blog by Asmae Ourkiya on a recently published study on the Samalas volcanic eruption of 1257 in Indonesia, and the massive impact it had on global climate. This month we announced the winners of the Public Engagement Grants and the Science Journalism Fellowships, congratulations to all our winners! The EGU26 call for abstracts is now open - you have until 13:00CET, 15 January 2026 to submit your abstract, but if you want to apply for financial support the deadline for submission is 13:00CET, 1 December - so don't delay! You can also now apply to support your community at EGU26 by volunteering to our Peer Support programme that helps General Assembly novices navigate the meeting! Apply to take part by 31 March 2026.'
