So much is at stake when Germany goes to the polls tomorrow. My take on Friedrich Merz and a huge mistake he made during the campaign. While Germany can't be seen as that borderline-boring bastion of stability anymore, the centre might get its act together after all, ironically thanks to JD Vance. 👇

If you're looking for an alternative to PIOMAS when it comes to sea ice thickness, I recommend this dataset by my colleagues at the Nansen Center!

In 1931 Mussolini imposed to all academics to pledge allegiance to the fascist regime -- or be fired. Just 12 out of ~1200 academics chose not to in the whole country. Here are the names of those brave few who chose to forfeit their careers.

📡❗️New instrument alert! We tested our new L-Band #radiometer "Ariel" which we will use in the #Arctic this summer. Observations of the surface at this frequency contain information about, e.g., sea ice thickness or soil moisture, and maybe even ducks?! ➡️ We will let you know!

Shocking. It is hard to overestimate the importance of all the wonderful research and observations from NOAA @climate.noaa.gov and other US-based agencies. Huge support to Zack and others who are affected.

The Northeast Greenland Ice Stream (NEGIS) is losing ice fast—accounting for some 12% of the ice sheet’s mass loss. #AWI researchers used radar surveys to examine its structure. As #NEGIS slides on mud, ice loss may accelerate. www.science.org/content/arti...

The extent of sea ice globally is now at an absolute record low level for the entire satellite-era. [Graphics: zacklabe.com/global-sea-i.... Note: the poles are affected by very different Earth system processes/seasonality. I am using 5-day running mean data.]

“The Musk approach is, ‘Hey, I'll break it and if somebody says afterwards you shouldn't have broken that, I'll say, oops,’” Rosenberg said. “Once they destroy the agencies, they're not going to be able to put them back together again, no matter what a judge says.”

A look at how #Arctic sea ice responded to the recent southerly flow of excessive heat and moisture. This same event resulted in the sudden anomalous temperature spike around the North Pole... Data is from the 3-km AWI SIC-LEADS algorithm using AMSR2 satellite.

It's always great to visit Helsinki-one of my favorite cities in the world. This time, I caught a glimpse of sea ice, which we’ll be modeling in the @terradt.bsky.social project (by the way, we're hiring!). The project kicked off in Helsinki this week.

The extreme winter warming event continues in the northernmost portions of the #Arctic. This is related to a temporary surge of heat and moisture that was transported northward and is related to the orientation of the large-scale atmospheric circulation. Graph from zacklabe.com/arctic-tempe...

Arctic sea ice reached its lowest monthly extent for January, at 6% below average. Antarctic sea ice extent was 5% below average and thus relatively close to average compared to other recent years. Dive into analysis of the #C3S Climate Bulletins: bit.ly/4aQUPM2
