News Media
As part of AGU's goal of promoting public understanding of geophysics and space science, AGU operates a press room and holds press conferences at many AGU-sponsored meetings. Also, press releases about research presented at the meeting are made available to reporters in the press room.
Registration
Online press registration is now closed. Members of the news media may still register for the meeting on site.
Press registration on-site is complimentary and will take place in the Press Room, which is Room F150, on the first level of the convention center. (To get to the Press Room, please be prepared to show security your press card, business card or other evidence of your eligibility as a news media registrant.
