Since the surface is mainly shaped by the Earth’s gravity field the classical definition includes the Earth’s gravitational potential. Observing the Earth's figure, the orientation and rotation as well as the gravity field, geodesy today provides spatial and temporal patterns of geophysical processes within the Earth system such as sea-level rise, tides, melting of continental ice masses, changes in global water circulation and in the atmosphere or deformations of the solid Earth. Consequently, the Geodesy Division covers activities on the whole spectrum of modern geodetic Earth system modelling from the measurement systems to the investigation of geophysical processes.</p> <div class="headline"> <h2>Latest posts from the G blog</h2> </div> <article class="media"> <img role="presentation" alt="" class="img-fluid img-thumbnail" src="https://www.egu.eu/media/news/blogmessages/2025/04/07/125599c2-27f3-4427-9395-d9505cd84615.jpg.120x120_q90_crop-smart_upscale.webp" srcset="https://www.egu.eu/media/news/blogmessages/2025/04/07/125599c2-27f3-4427-9395-d9505cd84615.jpg.120x120_q90_crop-smart_upscale.webp 1x, https://www.egu.eu/media/news/blogmessages/2025/04/07/125599c2-27f3-4427-9395-d9505cd84615.jpg.240x240_q90_crop-smart_upscale.webp 2x" loading="lazy"> <div class="media-body"> <a class="h4 external" href="https://blogs.egu.eu/divisions/g/2025/04/07/geodesy-division-highlights-at-egu25-your-essential-guide/">Geodesy Division Highlights at EGU25: Your Essential Guide</a> <ul class="list-inline mt-1"> <li class="list-inline-item"><i class="fab fa-fw fa-wordpress"></i> <a class="external" href="https://blogs.egu.eu/divisions/g/">Geodesy</a></li> <li class="list-inline-item"><i class="far fa-fw fa-calendar-plus"></i> posted 3 hours ago</li> </ul> <p>Disclaimer: This is just a small preview of the many other exciting events planned for GA!
