Once a year, researchers and professionals in Earth sciences, planetary science, atmospheric and space sciences gather to share the state of the art in research, present results, and discuss upcoming challenges.
This week, from April 27 to May 2, the EGU2025 conference is taking place in Vienna. It is organized by the European Geosciences Union (EGU), the leading European organization for Earth, planetary, and space science research, established in 2002 from the merger of the European Geophysical Society (EGS) and the European Union of Geosciences (EUG).
In the session dedicated to Atmospheric Sciences, ARIANET and ENEA presented a joint work focused on integrating Sentinel-5P satellite data into the MINNI model, one of the regional models contributing to the CAMS (Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service) forecasts, with a presentation titled: “Assessing the impacts of assimilating SO₂ TROPOMI retrievals with MINNI and DART at the European scale: a case study of the Mount Etna eruption”, during the session “Atmospheric Composition and Numerical Weather Forecasting.”
The presentation by Alessandro D’Ausilio focused particularly on volcanic events, such as the recent activity of Mount Etna, and the scientific and technical challenges of integrating space-based sulfur dioxide (SO₂) observations with outputs from the FARM atmospheric model.
The feedback received from the scientific community was very positive. This encourages us to continue on our path of innovation, which has always been one of the core values of ARIANET’s work.
