CHANGE at EGU General Assembly 2025

It was a busy week for CHANGE lab at the 2025 EGU General Assembly in Vienna!

Francesca, Qiming, and Akash presented their work on crop water use and sustainability, Swiss cropland suitability, and the role of rainfall recycling in sustaining rainfed crops. Sara and Francesca were also involved in convening a couple of sessions in hydrological and soil system sciences.
