Exciting News! 🌍 Our latest publication in
npj Journals reveals a poleward shift in events under human-induced . Using the cutting-edge GFDL model, we find a 3% increase in extreme wind speeds per degree of warming. 👉 nature.com/articles/s4161…

Now in NatureClimate - Fast upper-level jet stream winds get faster under climate change. Tiffany Shaw & Osamu Miyawaki show that upper-level jet stream winds accelerate ~2.5x faster than average winds under climate change go.nature.com/3RihkQv

2D phase space plots are a nice way to see the NAO- probability on its own charts.ecmwf.int/products/exten…

Decent signal for NAO- in January from the ECMWF extended. Note that the 'NAO- regime' is NOT one and the same with the NAO as the leading EOF/Azores-Iceland difference... many NAO- days can be classified as Atlantic Ridge or Scandi block regimes too

The Arctic vortex is weaker & warmer than the Antarctic vortex, particularly in spring when sunlight (needed for ozone depletion) returns. As a result, large areas of Arctic stratospheric cloud are rare & hence the ozone hole is an Antarctic, not Arctic, phenomenon.

A record-breaking 1052 hPa Azores high is expected tonight over the Central North Atlantic 🔃
Such an extreme anticyclone is tied to the extreme rains observed over the eastern US in the last few days☔️

A short thread with some weather maps by Tomer Burg and Dr. Alicia M Bentley 🧵(1/N)

This platform continually gets worse, but winter seems to bring out a unique bunch who get annoyed at warm weather in their desire for cold. Perhaps that's because, in a warming world, it's becoming that bit harder to actually experience it.

🚨2 geochemistry positions 🚨
in beautiful University of St Andrews (1 postdoc, 1 lab tech) studying volcanic forcing of climate. FWIW I am definitely better at science & supervising than social media!👩🏻‍🔬 Deadline extended Jan 10. tinyurl.com/29c6ebxc & tinyurl.com/mpd7tphh
