Welcome to your November Update for the 2025 EGU General Assembly, to be held 27 April–2 May 2025, both on-site in Vienna, Austria, and virtually. To keep you up to date, we will be sending you important EGU25 information 'EGU25 Updates' at least once per month – at the beginning of the month. You will still receive direct emails when tasks have a specific deadline, so make sure you check your spam folders and settings so that you don't miss anything!

More information about the planned format and additional features of the EGU25 General Assembly will be available soon, but for now let’s check the important information you need to know about in November!
