I wrote a little article on the current wet southern Australia in a climate change context 😀 Climate change is likely driving a drier southern Australia – so why are we having such a wet year? theconversation.com/climate-change… via The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand

Time for a tweet fest on my new favourite subject: Percentiles. @Taimoor_SA Ryan Holmes and I have been working on this for the last year and you ALL need to know about it imgflip.com/i/5w16q9 1/13

[1/9] OHC (0-2000m) hits record high in 2021, again, despite La Niña Conditions! The most recent report, authored by 23 researchers at 14 institutes, was published in Advances in Atmospheric Sciences. doi.org/10.1007/s00376…

Coastal communities around the world face a growing threat of sea-level rise (SLR). Here’s a little science-art project that I did with my wife to support the Waters Rising exhibition at the Chrysler Museum in Norfolk, VA, a hotspots of modern SLR coastal flooding. #ClimateCrisis

I'm currently searching for PhD candidates with interest in solving problems on Antarctic change and/or Earth deformation, needing people with solid backgrounds in maths or physics. #PhDposition Here's some sample topics 1/6

The AAPP and Australian Centre for Antarctic Science (ACEAS) have released a report on IPCC WGII key findings for Antarctica and the Southern Ocean. Read the full report here: aappartnership.org.au/antarctica-and… #IPCC

NASA's CERES radiative flux data for 2021 has come available. The annual Earth's Energy Imbalance was +1.52 W/m², the energy equivalent to 1 million Hiroshima sized atomic bombs every day. The rate of global warming has tripled in the past 20 years.

📢Paper alert📢 Fresh from the press in nature Trends in Europe storm surge extremes match the rate of sea-level rise 📈 by Calafat, F. M., T. Wahl, M. G. Tadesse, S. N. Sparrow. 🔗doi.org/10.1038/s41586… #NERCpapers #stormSurge #sealevel 🧵1/5

Glad to be part of this international effort revealing the important warming effect of tropospheric ozone on the Southern Ocean

NEW SOLAS SEMINAR! Quarterly seminar on SOLAS topics covering the SOLAS Science Plan and beyond. Join the first seminar ‘Interconnections between aerosols, clouds and marine ecosystems’, 29 Apr ‘22, 9-11 UTC+8 hybrid in Xiamen, China. Free registration: bit.ly/3DFhJFz

Second paper from Ole Richter's PhD, with David Gwyther and Ben Galton-Fenzi. Shows tides must be included in ice-ocean models.

New paper in Science Advances! We find that sfc warming causes sfc currents to speed up in most of the world ocean. Major take home message: surface warming, not the wind change, is the primary mechanism for ocean current change. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

We (myself, Kate Marvel, Gavin Schmidt, John Nielsen-Gammon, and Mark Zelinka) have a comment in nature today on how to best deal with the "hot model" problem in CMIP6 and use models in a way consistent with the AR6 assessed warming approach: nature.com/articles/d4158… 1/

I was so delighted and honoured to be invited as one of the speakers at this year’s Australian Chinese Youth Dialogue ACYD talking with Tony Press about the importance of #Antarctica to both our countries and my own experience of studying #AntarticScience in Hobart!

Just learned a new projection to show ocean warming trend map: all the oceans connected to each other. Really fascinating!

Congratulations 🎉 to CCRCs @JohnChurchOcean who has received the Axford Medal for Recognizing Excellence in Geoscience for his research on sea level change. 👇Link below to register for his talk: "What do we really know about 20th and 21st Century Sea-Level Change?"

What causes the bumps and wiggles in time series of Antarctic ice-mass change, and how do they relate to large-scale climate modes and ice sheet trends? That's what we look at in our new paper in Nature Geoscience with Kewei Lyu Xuebin Zhang 🧵 1/n youtu.be/zLZ4DohEKmU

💥Excited to share my latest publication in GRL AGU (American Geophysical Union), co-authored with a fantastic team Matt King Xuebin Zhang Kewei Lyu We explored the recent rebound of Ross Sea DSW salinity, driven by wind and heat flux through increased sea ice formation 👉dx.doi.org/10.1029/2023GL…
