Call for Abstracts: EGU 2026 NH3.14 RECENT ADVANCEMENTS OF LANDSLIDE HYDROLOGY
Pasquale Marino
Dear Colleagues,
EGU26 will be held in Vienna, Austria, and online on 3–8 May 2026.
Don’t miss the chance to submit an abstract to our session, “RECENT ADVANCEMENTS OF LANDSLIDE HYDROLOGY”.
This session focuses on the role of hydrological processes on slopes for improving landslide hazard assessment and early warning. It addresses the analysis of hydrological processes at both local and large scales, combining field monitoring studies using novel measurement techniques with advanced and data-driven modeling approaches.
Researchers from all fields are warmly invited to submit contributions ranging from field monitoring, modelling and novel data-driven approaches to advance the knowledge of processes leading to landslide occurrence.

We are honoured to welcome the following distinguished plenary speakers:
- Dorte Herzke (NILU)
- Zhong Huan (Nanjing University)
- Chelsea Rochman (University of Toronto)
- Tamara Galloway (University of Exeter)
- Richard Thompson (University of Plymouth)
These plenary lectures will bring together world-leading expertise in environmental science, toxicology, policy, and cross-sectoral approaches to micro- and nanoplastic research.
Abstract Submission Now Open
Abstract submissions for oral and poster presentations are now open.
We invite contributions addressing the environmental, human health, societal, and governance dimensions of micro- and nanoplastics, as well as emerging analytical, modelling, and cross-disciplinary approaches.
Submission Deadline: 31st January 2026 (11:59 PM Local UK Time)
Submission guidelines and the submission portal are available via the conference webpage.
Programme Highlights
The MnP26 programme will feature:
- Keynote lectures from leading global experts across environmental science, toxicology, engineering, policy, and social science.
- Interactive panel discussions on One Health perspectives, regulatory challenges, and future research priorities.
- Parallel thematic sessions spanning fundamental science, technology, governance, behaviour, and circular economy solutions.
- Workshops and skills sessions designed for early career researchers, including analytical methods, data harmonisation, and interdisciplinary communication.
- Networking and partnership forums to encourage collaboration across academia, industry, government, and NGOs.
Conference Themes
The conference will explore a broad spectrum of topics, including:
- One Health frameworks for understanding micro- and nanoplastic pollution
- Environmental and human toxicology
- Exposures, pathways, sources, fate, and transport
- Detection, characterisation, and modelling across scales
- Governance, regulation, and policy innovations
- Waste management and circular economy strategies
- Public awareness, education, and behavioural change
