AGU25, the premier Earth and space science conference, takes place December 15-19, 2025 in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Once again, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory and Columbia Climate School scientists, experts, students, and educators are playing an active role, sharing our research and helping shape the future of our planet. #AGU25 Learn More
