No US delegation at the next IPCC plenary 😤 www.axios.com/2025/02/20/u...

Thanks @docaharper.bsky.social Indeed we have one (now and another one soon) postdoc position open. To integrate Earth Observation data and land surface models (JULES) to quantify carbon stocks & fluxes across European and global ecosystems. jobs.exeter.ac.uk keyword: Q01368

“Women farmers, land defenders and critical mineral miners are disproportionately exposed to effects of a warming world, but a growing body of evidence has also linked climate change to an increase in gender-based violence at work and at home.” www.context.news/climate-just...

📣 Meet the first awardee of the WCRP Global South Fellowship! Dr Addis Alaminie is an Ethiopian researcher working on climate change and hydrological modelling. WCRP congratulates Dr Alaminie on her award! #ClimateScience #EMCRs Read more about her and her work here: loom.ly/IwyyNpc

All the executive orders Trump has signed so far

Draft chapter outline for IPCC AR7 WGI is now public - *subject to approval* at the plenary, end of Feb What's new? Compared to AR6: -More concise -greater range of modeling approaches -chapters span Earth System domains -considers diverse physical scenarios /thread/ apps.ipcc.ch/eventmanager...

This could be the most terrifying article you'll read today, about how Trump is stuffing the EPA with lawyers and lobbyists for the oil and chemical industries who have worked to weaken climate and pollution protections and clearly don't care about human health.

😳

I have a new paper in Dialogues on Climate Change exploring climate outcomes under current policies. I find that we are likely headed toward 2.7C by 2100 (with uncertainties from 1.9C to 3.7C), and that high end emissions scenarios have become much less likely. journals.sagepub.com...

Thanks to research by the Earth System model community there seems to be sufficient clarity to re-define "atmospheric carbon dioxide removal" to "anthropogenic carbon dioxide removal" (or something similar) A short thread on the argument for considering such a re-definition in terminology 1/11

Has the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) weakened over the last decades? In our new study, we combine state-of-the-art CMIP6 models and observation-based estimates of the air-sea heat flux in the North Atlantic to show that the AMOC has not declined since the 1960s! 🌊

Let’s hope we get it right this time

Now that all groups have released their 2024 global temperature data, here is a comparison of their timeseries and their 2024 values

Did climate change help fuel the Los Angeles wildfires? Read more: bit.ly/409MOg4

I discussed the climate change-fueled Southern California wildfires and the disinformation that Trump & enablers are promoting about them last night with Stephanie Ruhle on #MSNBC #11thHour: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DCH...

1/ Does climate activism work? The short answer is yes, and there's been lots of research this year showing how Here are some highlights 🧵

Interviewer: Can you explain this gap in your resume? Climate scientists: That’s textbook climate skeptics cherry picking. 🙄

Are we seeing a climate-insurance tipping point ? @bobkopp.net 😉

🚨Paper alert: The adaptive emission reduction approach was used to simulate 1.5°C & 2°C temperature stabilization in 13 Earth system models. Key findings: remaining carbon budgets 60% larger than in IPCC AR6, budgets evolve over time, pos. emissions under stabilized warming doi.org/10.5194/esd-...

Don't miss an opportunity to leave your mark in advancing the Earth system model development activities within @wcrpclimate.bsky.social WGCM is seeking new members with a focus on women, gender-diverse individuals from different regions and expertise. www.wcrp-esmo.org/news/open-ca... 🧪 🌊
