Wonderful and insightful talk by Dr. Bowen Pan (Bowen Pan 潘博文) on how tropical cyclones modulate Western North Pacific monsoon troughs at this year’s 2021 AGU Fall Meeting! #AGU21 #AGU2021 AGU (American Geophysical Union) Sue van den Heever @eric_maloney

Earth’s second-largest expanse of tropical forest lies in central Africa, in the Congo Basin. This rainforest is key to limiting climate change — it needs urgent study and protection nature.com/articles/d4158…

A remarkable movie and statement - one that is certainly worth watching! A clearly presented and unbiased assessment of the Earth’s current biodiversity as well as practical steps forward to addressing these issues! netflix.com/title/80216393

Using 5-minute ASOS data nationally, I constructed a loop of 10-minute pressure change, showing the shockwave from the volcanic eruption progressing through the United States this morning:

I thought this school year would be better, but it isn’t. This year is destroying teachers. I am so tired that I literally hurt. Schools may be the best place for kids, but I don’t know how we come back from this. 1/🧵

The C³LOUD-Ex field campaign, led by Prof. Sue van den Heever, is featured on the cover of the latest issue of #BulletinAMS! The innovative campaign involved flying drones into thunderstorms to capture hard-to-collect data on updrafts and cold pools.

Madagascar will once again be struck by a tropical cyclone — the third to do so in February. #Emnati is currently north of Mauritius, and will landfall along the southeastern coast of Madagascar on Tuesday. Latest tracker on our website: zoom.earth/storms/emnati-…

March is #WomensHistoryMonth and today is #InternationalWomensDay. #ARM is honoring the many women who keep #ARMdata flowing and those who use that #data in their #research | #WomenInScience #DOEClimateScience

Professors Michael M. Bell and Dr. Kristen Rasmussen are leading PRECIP 2022 to figure out how and why the most violent rainstorms in the world occur. The #NSFfunded project involves an international team and aims to save lives by improving extreme rainfall prediction. engr.source.colostate.edu/csu-atmospheri…

#BACS closing out this week. What a great collaboration of convective storms and aerosol groups, led by Leah Grant, Russell Perkins and Betsy Stone, with the #BROADN team! ⁦Sue van den Heever⁩ ⁦@Marina_nieto91⁩ ⁦@ClaudiaMignani⁩ ⁦⁦Noelle C. Bryan⁩ #NSFfunded

Collision of at least 4, maybe 5, outflow boundaries over Jackson this evening! #MSwx

Was Invited to Participate in 1st cold pool science workshop at Ringberg Castle in Tegernsee, Germany. Had some really fruitful discussion on what we need to do more to better understand cold pools. Plus, we stayed in a real castle! Thanks ⁦Sue van den Heever⁩ and Cathy for inviting.

Europe is launching suicide squid robots to grab space junk and burn up with it in Earth's atmosphere Beginning 2025 🦑🤖

What a record breaking weather day … stay warm everyone!

In our latest paper, Sue van den Heever and I show that localized emission sources like wildfires and cities can drive an “aerosol breeze” that increases clouds and rainfall. Read more at Nature Communications: nature.com/articles/s4146… !

Study by Gabrielle Leung and Sue van den Heever shows that gradients in #aerosol #emissions drive thermodynamic circulations called “aerosol breezes” that may enhance #precipitation and #cloudiness in the cleaner regions of the aerosol gradient. CSU Atmos Sci nature.com/articles/s4146…
