2023 AGU Fall Meeting Session on Physical and Environmental Impacts of War

We convened a session at the American Geophysical Union Fall Meeting for scientists and practitioners to come together to share research on the physical and environmental impacts of the war. Together with Jamon Van Den Hoek from Oregon State University and Eoghan Darbyshire from the Conflict and Environment Observatory (CEOBS), we have convened a session on the topic.
