We want to hear from you! Take our survey and share your ideas for the Quarterly Townhall Events for 2024

In 2024, the Biogeosciences Section will host quarterly townhall events to help build community and provide a platform for conversations between our diverse membership. The first event "Is this sustainable? The State and Future of Earth Science Careers" will be a panel and small group discussion event held in March. To help us plan the first, and future, events please fill out the following survey. Thank you!

Consider supporting AGU Biogeosciences!

Your AGU Biogeosciences Section Committee has been hard at work to bring the Biogeosciences community a wide range of activities and support in 2023. This includes travel and caregiver awards, which help increase diversity, equity and inclusion at the AGU23 Meeting, as well as OSPA awards to honor student presenters, early career workshops, networking activities and more! Please consider donating to the Biogeosciences Section so that we can continue to provide this level of support. You can donate here.

A contribution of $50 or more makes you an individual donor, which qualifies you for an incentive program that helps increase funds available for each section. More specifically, starting at 5% participation from primary affiliated Biogeosciences members, AGU will give our section additional funds for section-based activities. The greater the participation, the greater the contribution from AGU to our section.

Thank you everyone for your support!

Yours,

Colleen Hansel, Section President
Tana Wood, Section Secretary
