The warming stripes are proving popular. This example by Karin van der Wiel is a version for De Bilt in the Netherlands, with added context of the usual temperature time series overlaid: knmi.nl/over-het-knmi/…

Now it's the turn of CBC News to publish a series of 'warming stripes' for individual cities in Canada: cbc.ca/news/technolog… #warmingstripes

Our new research shows that rapid warming and freshening of the Southern Ocean is due to human caused increases in greenhouse gases and ozone depletion. nature.com/articles/s4156… #oceanresearch SOOS CLIVAR @ECCCSciTech

The #IPCC Special Report on #GlobalWarming of 1.5°C #SR15 has been approved! Kudos to all involved, incl working group co-chairs, more than 90 authors and editors who reviewed more than 6000 papers and 42,000 comments. Full details at press conference Monday at 10 am KST.

When it comes to a changing climate, the bottom line is this: It’s real. It’s us. Scientists agree. The impacts are already here and now. But by acting now we can still avoid the most serious and even dangerous impacts. Our future is in our hands.

It is dangerously cold in central and eastern US. Yet the planet overall is still 0.3°C warmer than "normal" - and that "normal" is ~0.6°C warmer than pre-industrial times.

How big is the CO₂ bucket for 1.5°C? Well, the bucket is about to overflow in a few short years, unless we: 1. Turn off the tap (urgently) 2. Put a hole in the bottom to remove CO₂ (negative emissions) #COP25 #CarbonBudget Future Earth (@futureearth.bsky.social) GlobalCarbonProject globalcarbonproject.org/carbonbudget/i…

My CMIP6 statistics so far: - 200,000 years of simulation - 105 experiments across 15 MIPs/Activities - 100 million+ core-hours of computation - 30 PB of data on tape - 5 PB of data on disk - 0.5 PB of data on ESGF ...and counting...💪💪💪

AMOC to recover after achieving #ParisAgreement targets, leading to reduced North Atlantic sea level rise. Our new paper in NatureClimate: AMOC to recover over 150 years to level independent of Paris target, resulting in continued regional #climatechange rdcu.be/b4ysq

Grateful to see our new NatureClimate paper on the strengthening of the Gulf Stream after achieving the #ParisAgreement targets featured at nature.com/nclimate/. Read the paper here: rdcu.be/b4ysq Happy #WorldOceansDay!

Together with colleagues including @SimonLeeWx Isla Simpson Michael Sigmond we've been wondering a lot about why forecasts following SSWs and strong vortex events lead to greater correlation skill (like the figure below from doi.org/10.1088/1748-9…)

ODSs, chemical substances that caused the #ozone hole, were responsible for a third of late 20th Century #globalwarming, #Arctic warming & Arctic sea ice decline. Read more in our new GRL paper at doi.org/10.1029/2022GL… (with Polvani, Fyfe, Cole Chris Smith 🇪🇺 & Mark England)
