Did you already realise that ICOS released European Obspack for CO2 and CH4 that brings you historic data plus ICOS Level 2 plus ICOS near-realtime observation from 60 stations dating back from 1972 up to March 2023? icos-cp.eu/data-products/… and icos-cp.eu/data-products/…

I am very pleased to share our newly published article on soil organic carbon models and their validation procedures over time. This paper is the result of a collective research involving 26 soil scientists following a workshop at the #Géosciences_ENS nature.com/articles/s4324…

It's an important step forward that World Meteorological Organization Congress has adopted the #GlobalGHGWatch. ICOS RI will definitely contribute further to it. We are ready to support 💪. public.wmo.int/en/media/press…

Sybrig Smit from NewClimate Institute on accounting loopholes in GHG accounting at the #NCGG9 conference in Amsterdam

This week, a new eddy-covariance supersite has been installed in Paris by INRAE #LSCE Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry Uni Heidelberg and Universität Freiburg. In our ICOS RI Cities Horizon Europe🇪🇺 project we develop new methods measuring and attributing greenhouse gas emission reductions in EU cities.

FLUXES, the European Greenhouse Gas Bulletin is out! 🌍 This latest issue of #FLUXES explores the potential and limitations of nature-based solutions for carbon removal from a scientific perspective, focusing on land ecosystems and the ocean. Read more: icos-cp.eu/fluxes/2

Another day at our new agricultural site. More bird protection, sensor cleaning and logger program fine tuning on the agenda today. The #kernza and the rapeseed at the control field seem to have started to grow according to plan. @csi_micromet The Land Institute Edward Swiatek

Great Nature paper by Auke van der Woude et al. with an analysis of the 2022 drought on Europe using loads of ICOS RI data: "with the build-up of ICOS, it is present to analyse and quantify a major event in the European carbon cycle in near-real time." doi.org/10.1038/s41467…

📣 Call for experts #IPCC is calling member governments and observer organizations to nominate experts to draft the outline for the Special Report on Climate Change and Cities. Nominations should be submitted by 17 Nov 2023. Details 🔗 bit.ly/NCities

October 2023 was the hottest October in human history...🔥 ...except for in one small spot.

In case you have had your head in the sand for the last 30 years, CO2 & CH4 concentrations are at record levels & still growing at record pace... Oh, but don't worry, 90% of the world has a net zero pledge, or something, blah, blah, blah, ... library.wmo.int/records/item/6…

Climate experts were increasingly saying that keeping heating below 1.5C is near impossible, yet it remains the global goal. So I asked hundreds of top IPCC scientists what they thought. What they said shocked even me… 🧵 1/n #ClimateCrisis

The key question was how high they thought global temperature will rise by 2100. Almost 80% of the respondents said at least 2.5C. Almost half said at least 3C. That is a catastrophic level of heating. Just 6% thought 1.5C would be achieved. 3/n

How do impacts of multi-year droughts differ from single-year droughts? nhess.copernicus.org/articles/24/17… The second paper from my PhD published Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences (NHESS) . With Christian Kuhlicke, Miguel Mahecha and Dr. Mariana Madruga de Brito we compared drought impacts in Germany 2000-2022. Here's what we found...

1/8 Veelgehoorde reactie op resultaten coalitieakkoord: "Zijn de plannen van GL-PvdA dan beter voor koopkracht van mensen? Voor extra banen? Minder armoede? Meer geld voor onderwijs, veiligheid en internationale samenwerking?" Laten we kijken naar wat het Centraal Planbureau zelf zegt:

Just attending a 3-day workshop on the danger of abrupt ocean circulation changes. Discussions are quite worrying. E.g. in 35 to 45 % of high quality models, convection in the open North Atlantic collapses in the 2030s due to #globalheating. -> Major climate disruption. ☹️

Carbon offsetting explained. #ClimateCrisis
