📢2023 smashed so many records 🌡️1.48°C above pre-industrial 🔥First time temp anomalies reached 2°C ❄️Staggeringly low Antarctic sea ice 🌎Deadly extremes - wildfires, heatwaves, floods. All have real impacts on people. Every tenth of a degree matters.

Read "Towards an increasingly biased view on Arctic change", one of our top rated articles on Altmetric this past week, here: nature.com/articles/s4155… The article was published OA in NatureClimate.

Truly outlandish. Some places in Europe didn't just record their warmest February on record.... They went on to beat their warmest MARCH temperature levels. [THREAD]

The rate of warming has increased notably over the past 15 years. This is not just natural variability – there is increasing evidence that the world is now warming faster than it has since 1970. However, this should not come as a surprise; acceleration is exactly what our models

1/4 While we expect the permafrost region to be a significant GHG source as the planet warms, we know little about the region's current net GHG balance Justin Ramage et al. have just done that, a full analysis of sources and sinks of CO2, CH4, and N2O fluxes for 2000-2020

The more you tell the simple truth on this issue the more people switch off and dismiss it as hysteria. But this is really happening. The future simply is not what 99.9% of the public thinks it is right now. The insanity of our lack of reaction cannot be overstated.

Beautiful🌈 fieldwork weeks in Greenland🇬🇱 at Kobbefjord Research Station measuring GHGs with Cherry Jones JohnnaHolding & Henry Henson along the land-freshwater-marine continuum to understand lateral C transport. Thanks to GreenFeedBack @ARC_AU Aarhus Universitet for support & Greenland Ecosystem Monitoring datasets

I had an incredible experience working with @_LopezBlanco in Greenland this summer thanks to my FLUXNET_Coop Secondment! Check out some of what we worked on 👇

NEW CALL FOR PROJECTS: Additional Essential Climate Variables (esa.int) The scope of this new procurement involves developing new satellite-derived Climate Data Records that will add to the existing Essential Climate Variable portfolio of ESA’s Climate Change

"Every indicator monitored by WMO has broken a new record: greenhouse gases, sea level rise, temperature, ocean acidification. The science is clear. What are we doing about it? We need to translate the science and the numbers into impact." World Meteorological Organization Celeste Saulo #climateweek

The #fieldseason in Kobbefjord is officially over. #BioBasis staff couldn’t reach the #station due to #fjordice. So close, yet sooo far ;) Doing #fieldwork in the #Arctic for Greenland Ecosystem Monitoring

1/7 The region of most concern for carbon-climate feedbacks in a warmer world is the permafrost region. We don't even know well its current GHG balance. As part of the GlobalCarbonProject RECCAP2, Gustaf Hugelius led the development of the most comprehensive GHG Budget to date.
