The EGU General Assembly 2014 was again a great success with 4,829 oral, 9,583 poster, and 483 PICO presentations. 568 unique scientific sessions together with 126 Poster Summaries and Discussions as well as 245 side events created an interesting programme. At the conference 12,437 scientists from 106 countries participated, of which 27% were students, 15,000 copies of EGU Today distributed, keen media presence and reporting, and thousands of visits to the webstreams as well as to the EGU blog GEOLOG. We thank all of you very much for your attendance and your active contribution to this great event.
