Experts from the Meteorological Synthesizing Centre – East (MSC-E) participated in the international conference Goldschmidt 2025, held in Prague, Czech Republic, from 6 to 11 July. The Goldschmidt Conference is the premier annual meeting in geochemistry, bringing together leading researchers from around the world to present cutting-edge research in geochemical sciences. MSC-E expert Isabel Garcia Arevalo contributed to the event with an oral presentation as part of the special session Geochemical Sources, Exposure Pathways, and Health Implications of Toxic Substances.

The presentation, entitled Integrating Moss Biomonitoring and GLEMOS Modelling for PAH Distribution and Source Attribution in Europe, generated interest among geochemistry and environmental health experts. The feedback received from the scientific community provided valuable insights for advancing MSC-E’s work on atmospheric pollution modelling and biomonitoring applications. Additionally, the conference provided excellent opportunities for knowledge exchange and networking with specialists in geochemical modelling, environmental health assessment, and biomonitoring techniques, fostering potential collaborations with international research groups working on topics aligned with MSC-E’s scientific objectives.

The conference featured important science outreach and dissemination activities across several fields of direct relevance to current and future MSC-E work and ongoing research at the Department of Environmental Sciences (O2).
