"Many of the scientists envisage a “semi-dystopian” future, with famines, conflicts and mass migration, driven by heatwaves, wildfires, floods and storms of an intensity and frequency far beyond those that have already struck"
This is not a distant future. This is within the lifetime of people now adult. We need to change course right now.
#ClimateEmergency
Compliments to The Guardian for polling #climate scientists recently and publishing their predictions that are so much scarier than the official ones.
But in spite of their coverage, the Guardian has a hard time accepting it themselves. At 2.7°C, they say, 2 billion people will be pushed out of the conditions that allow humanity to live. And at above 3°C, they say we will have “millions of r…

This is very problematic. Alarming data from 1979 to 2024 shows sea surface temperatures reaching historic highs. Recent years have shattered all previous records, indicating a dire escalation in our climate crisis. This threatens vital marine ecosystems and our global climate stability. We need leadership in action now.

A new study has come to my notice estimating the #co2footprint of #climate simulations within the 6th Phase of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6*).
It is sobering to learn that the carbon footprint of the European consortium alone was that of around 200 Germans.

New #science study confirms that warmer global temperatures from #ClimateChange leads to increased microbial activity, which results in more #CO2 being released.
On a personal note, the image of the …
May 2024 was warmer globally than any previous May in the data record: 0.65°C above the 1991-2020 average for May and 0.19°C above the previous high set in May 2020.
This is the twelfth month in a row that is the warmest on record for the respective month of the year.

I am lucky to have worked with
#NTUSingapore PhD student Yilin Zhang for the last two years. She teased apart complicated clouds microphysical processes using measurements and modeling of the 17-O composition of water.
#Clouds processes like these are of paramount importance in determining the equilibrium #climate sensitivity (how much warming CO2 causes) of models as well as bits of the hydrologic cycle like extreme rain.
Her first in a series of 3 papers is out:
