“…Over the last decades, the publishing community has become younger, more diverse in terms of contributing disciplines and more gender‐balanced, with a promising tendency to reach gender equality in some decades (Figure 4). However, despite this positive trend, women continue to be strongly under‐represented in geomorphology today (Rathburn & Ely, 2021) and consistently face more challenges in career advancement than men (e.g. Benya et al, 2018; Guarino & Borden, 2017), for example, during geomorphological fieldwork in times of pregnancy and early motherhood (Lininger et al, 2021).…”

The German Society for Geomorphology (GSG) (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geomorphologie: DGGM) evolved out of the German Working Group for Geomorphology in 2021, reflecting the widened scope of relevant topics and involved disciplines, the increasing importance for the professional job market and society in general, as well as the increasing importance of international cooperation and global challenges. In this special issue of the GSG we attempt to visualize the breadth in relevant methods and geomorphological subdisciplines, the wide scope of investigated temporal and spatial scales, but also the diversification in terms of career levels and gender equality. The special issue contains 25 research papers and one commentary, incorporating more than 30 German, Austrian, Swiss and other geomorphology groups, all active in the GSG, with co‐authors from virtually all continents. This editorial provides a short historical overview of the GSG's evolution, short paper summaries, a tabular paper overview and a graphical representation of contributing groups and networking, the career level and gender of all authors, relevant topics, methods, as well as temporal and spatial scales.

“…The challenges of being a woman, a transgender woman and/or a non‐binary researcher in academia have also been widely discussed in the literature (Bono et al, 2019; Casad et al, 2020; Huang et al, 2020; Rathburn & Ely, 2021; Siegel, 2019) and often intersect with other aspects of identity including racial diversity, sexuality, disability and class (Berhe et al, 2022; Dowey et al, 2021). The tendency for women to leave academia prematurely is well‐established (Gasser & Shaffer, 2014), sometimes described as the ‘leaky pipeline’.…”
