As AGU marks its Centennial in 2019, we return to San Francisco, the home of the AGU Fall Meeting for more than 40 years. The conference of the numerous and varied scientific community was held at the recently renovated Moscone Center. The objectives were the promotion of scientific collaboration, in view of future research developments.
Today we stand at the intersection of history and our future. Fall Meeting 2019 prepared us for what’s ahead: rapid developments in our science, new approaches to observing our Earth and beyond, the introduction of new data streams, growing demand for accessible science, the expansion of convergent science, and more. AGU will celebrate our past and inspire the future by bringing together the people, the imagination, and the science that will ignite our next hundred years to make our planet safer, cleaner, and more sustainable.
During the congress the associate editors met the distinguished Editor-in-Chief of Environmental Fluid Mechanics, prof. Joe Fernando, during which I discussed any publication plans, ideas for papers or special issues and experiences related to the journal.
Another meeting was held with dr. Dr Elizabeth Mann (associate editor of Scientific Reports - Nature Research), during which I discussed any issues related to the journal.
